Ray:

Yep, 08 Fuel injected.

Pipes are Road House Dooleys.

Here's a pic of my current air intake configuration.

Rich,

Took your advice and filled out the link you attached. Question are you running a power commander? If so which one, I currently have a FI2000R from corba, I also have the o2 sensors disconnected, my pipes (roadhouse dullies) are set up for the sensors. But after having some back fire issues they corba said to disconnet the o2 sensors. Can you give some advice on this matter.

Ray, I have a 2008 with new Roadhouse Dooleys, I just went thru this last week with my new pipes, First things first, Did you PLUG UP or remove the (AIS) Air Injection System. This ten minute mod will knock out 99% of your deceleration popping.
Also Check for any Exhaust leaks, it will pop if you have exhaust leaks, Make sure All clamps are tight. I am not running any power commander either and my 02 sensors are plugged in for now...
Let us know how it works out for ya.

Re:new guy 3 Years, 1 Month ago  
Rich,

Sorry getting back late. But hey my o2 sensors are in and unhooked at the present time. I am going to rehook up the sensors. And I did fined a leak and replaced my head gaskets, took care the pooping. But I did lose power when going around 55-60mph. I will hook back up the o2 sensors and get back with you. I believe this will help. Thanks For your information.

Graber.
