Thank you for the recommendation! I was looking at 180’s as a good “middle of the road” option.

The connection to the ipr is good, as well as the pigtail. But I haven’t removed it and cleaned/replaced it since I’ve had the truck.

The single shots will require custom tuning, but provide more power and less demand on the hpop
More power will add more strain on your transmission.


Have you checked for blow by?
I would also suggest checking post filter fuel pressure first as well
any custom tuning I need done, I will reach out to jellybuilt. They seem to be the most recommended from what I’ve seen. Trans has been rebuilt by previous owner. Receipt says, HD converter, solenoid pack, shift kit. No real specifics. But seems to be pretty solid. As far as blow by, it seems to have a good seal. Oil fill cap stays put when flipped over. Ccv has has typical little light puffs. No smoke at all as far as exhaust, occasional little puff when gunning hard under a heavy load.
