APS torque converter, and CAI question

Post by GONE1445 »

does any one have this on there truck i got an 03 r/c s/b with 5-speed auto and hemi (dont know if that makes a difference) but is it worth the money and how hard is it to install

also i think they have a trans-go shift kit is that worth the money??

also who makes a good CAI for the hemi or should i get a ram air hood instead(functional)??

From what I've heard, the transgo kits for the 545 trans aren't the cure all. Wait for APS Precision to modify and add to those kits.

I have their converter too and it's great. My converter has the 2.5 stator ratio and it's great off the line.

I had good luck with the AirRam intake before I put my turbo on. www.airram.com I believe is their site.

one problem they stoped makin the air ram intake because the guy that made them was sent to iraq or somethin i guess i think ill just go with a ram air hood or that cowel induction hood(if its functional) cant wait till they come out with the shaker hood for the ol hemi

Gone 1445- I will be ordering mine aps torque converter soon, with the pml tranny pan. I am getting a 2500 stall speed and plan on switching to 3.92 gears. I will let u know how I like it once it's installed.
