I posted a recent picture of the soot free exhaust on my Ford F350. I have no need for info on a Dodge?

I hope this clears up your confusion on the subject.

I’m astonished as to how clean modern diesels run and I for one am glad of it. I absolutely do not miss the days of black smoke billowing from their exhaust.

I agree 100% with Foldbak. Water damage.

I would also ask them to remove a ceiling speaker. It’ll allow you to see inside. Any evidence of water/moisture should quickly reveal itself.

I completely agree. I installed mine myself about a year ago. I sleep much better knowing it's on there. Here is a video showing what's involved when they fail without the S&S kit.

I do too. I've searched for negative reviews and as of yet I've found none. I'll be sure to post back when I get it installed. Likely sometime in January.

Merry Christmas to you too.

In most cases I am too. But a failed CP4 is in the $10,000 to $15,000 range. That’s just too steep for me to risk it.

I think the most important thing to remember is that, like all mechanical things, all CP4's will eventually wear out if run long enough. When they do the collateral damage is catastrophic.

The piston can also rotate in the bore which has nothing to do with lubrication.

Same here. We’re in Quartzite now. We moved the rack to the truck and take them into town. There is no way I’d ride a bike on 95 even for a short distance.
