Installed Predator & TYMAR Intake!

Installed the Predator on my 02' PSD. Currently have only ran the 60HP setting. Sweet! My wife drove the truck the next morning. Called me on my cell and ask'd what did I do to it this time.
A very noticeable difference from the 60 HP setting on the SCMT that was previously installed. According to my digital mileage indicator, I'm getting 23.4 mpg highway.

Installed the TYMAR intake the following day. All I can say is, it breathes. My mileage went up to 26.4mpg on the highway. I'll be verifying this by performing actual calculations. I'm a little sceptical that my 1-ton cc. psd is achiiving that awesome fuel mileage.

Very happy with both additions and would highly recommend them.

My bad, I neglected to answer your question. Yes it does sound different. You can hear the air flow. Especially as the RPM's change.

When my wife road in it the first time after the install, she asked what that noise was I just said it's breathing better

No, it's not loud in the cab. You can just hear it breathe better. The tuner or chip will change the sound of the exhaust. My exhaust is factory less the muffler. I will be installing a new system soon though.

Hope this helps!
