3 hours with tech support, a little welding, and a prayer. Behold…, knob 2.0. Took less than 5 seconds to swap out. So much better. Part # 90011-23050.
I have the MagnaFlow Overland system with the side sweep. Zero drone, quiet in the cab. Maybe moderate sound level outside. Deep mellow sound overall with some added hiss under load.

Been OTT tuned since October of last year. About 3 weeks ago I removed my AEM DryFlow filter and OE intake. Installed the Banks intake and Immediately felt an overall power difference. Mileage has settled with a .2 mpg improvement. Wasn’t looking for a mpg boost but that, the extra power and no...
