In another one of our articles we discussed some diesel performance items that can help you cross the threshold from diesel performance hobbyist to an extreme diesel performance connoisseur. Some of the items that we covered in the previous article include performance injectors and lift pumps. Now once you have gone as far as you can on bolt on parts, its time to start doubling up...on everything! The great thing about diesels is that they don't have to be as fine tuned as gas vehicles. If you can find a way to dump more fuel into them then it's all a matter of mixing enough oxygen with the fuel. If you can find a way to get enough oxygen in there then what you end up with is HUGE HORSEPOWER AND TORQUE! Now in this article we won't cover some of the other options that are out there when it comes to getting that extra fuel to combust such as Propane, NOS, Water Methanol Injection and CNG, in this article we are going to focus more on finding ways to increase oxygen and fuel levels with other means. Going back to earlier when I mentioned doubling up, there are three main areas that you can double up on your diesel to create some huge results including Stacking Chips, Dual Injection Pumps, and of course Twin Turbos.

Stacking Chips- If one diesel performance chip gives you extra power, won't two chips give you even more power? That is the idea behind stacking multiple diesel performance chips on your rig. The key to stacking chips successfully is knowing what kind of chips you are trying to get to work together. Within the diesel performance chip/tuner industry manufacturers use a few different methods to increase the horsepower in your engine, some of the most possible methods are adjusting timing and increasing pressure. When you are thinking about stacking chips it is best to find two chips that increase power in two different ways, for example one of the most common stacks for Cummins owners is using a Smarty Tuner with a Dr. Performance chip. The reason this stack is so popular is the fact that the Dr. Performance Chip increases pressure while the Smarty Tuner uses a couple of different methods to increase power and actually has settings to where you can back off the pressure. If you had two chips that adjusted the timing, you would find that your vehicle would run poorly. For legal reasons we won't tell you which stacks we have found to work best, but we will tell you to be careful as you start to think about stacking your chips, it may be more power than you can handle.

Dual Injection Pumps- Need more fuel? Then we recommend checking out some of the dual fueler kits out there on the market. As I said earlier half of the equation of more horsepower is more fuel, so what better to get you there than a second injection pump. Now this little trick doesn't work with the older diesels which is fine because you can turn the pumps up considerably on those but on the newer common rail diesels like the Cummins and the Duramaxes that utilize the CP3 injection pump to flow fuel into the rail the hottest craze for more power is adding a second injection pump. Once you have added a second injection pump you will be able to flow enough fuel to get you up to 1200 horsepower and your fuel pressure will increase up to 28,000 PSI. Currently the most well known companies that are offering Dual CP3 injection kits are PPE, Industrial Injection and ATS.

Twin Turbos- Put simply, you'll get more power, quicker response, cooler EGT Exhaust Gas Temperature's and lower exhaust emissions with a set of twin or compound turbos. With all the fuel you will have running to your rig with a set of stacked chips and Dual Injection Pumps you are definitely going to need some more oxygen to get some combustion going on. Twin or compound turbos are the perfect answer for those looking to push more air into the intake manifold. By doubling up on turbos you are going to be able to flow a considerable amount of more fuel while lowering your exhaust temperatures allowing you to run more horsepower safely. Twin or compound turbo setups are most common on the Dodge Cummins and are offered by companies like BD, Industrial Injection and ATS. More and more kits are coming out for the Duramax, and if you are a Powerstroke owner good luck, kits are few and far between for your rig.

So if you are looking to turn your diesel hobby into an extreme diesel passion, these are definitely a great place to start.

Daimlerchrysler Canada to Employ Clean Diesel Technology

DaimlerChrysler Canada has announced recently its plan to expand and improve its lineup of eco-friendly, sophisticated clean diesel technology starting with the 2007 model year.

The clean diesel technology will enable DaimlerChrysler to offer new or improved diesel powered versions of its vehicles such as the 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee CRD, the 2007 Dodge Ram 2500, and 3500 pickup trucks with the Cummins 6.7-litre engine and a Dodge Ram 1500 light duty pickups after 2009. New technology calls for equally new parts and for the mentioned DaimlerChrysler vehicles the automaker will surely require for some new SUV truck part components that would complement the new technology.

At present a fourth Chrysler Group diesel vehicle, the Dodge Sprinter, is also available in Canada. These new clean diesel engines are expected to provide owners with a significant increase in low-end torque with an average of 30 per cent better fuel efficiency and a 20 per cent reduction in carbon dioxide (C02) emissions as compared to an equivalent gasoline engine. When towing, diesel engines can also provide additional fuel economy of up to 40 per cent.

The advanced diesel technology is an integral part of the Chrysler Group's advanced propulsion technology umbrella, which focuses on hybrids, efficient gasoline engines, biodiesel capability, and flex-fuel vehicles. The first BLUETEC vehicle built by Chrysler Group was the Dodge Ram Heavy Duty powered by a 6.7-litre Cummins turbo diesel and available in Canadian Dodge dealerships.

The Dodge Ram 2500 Regular Cab 4X2 is offered at a starting price of $41,305 MSRP excluding destination. The Dodge Ram's new clean diesel engine will meet the required low levels of emissions, including the extremely strict U.S. 50-state emissions standards for 2010. This will make the Dodge Ram cleaner than other pickup trucks.

The new 2007 Dodge Ram Heavy Duty turbo diesel engine make use of a self-cleaning Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) that eliminates particulate matter emissions and an absorber catalyst to reduce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) by as much as 90 per cent.

Last 2006, Dodge Ram sales in Canada reached an all-time high of 39,837 units. The latest Dodge Ram lineup includes 1500, 2500 and 3500 models in three cab configurations: Regular, Quad Cab and Mega Cab. The available engine options on Dodge Ram include the Magnum 3.7-litre V6, 4.7-litre, 4.7-litre flex-fuel V8, 5.7-litre Hemi V8 and the new Cummins turbo diesel.

It was in the year 1988 when Dodge Ram Heavy Duty trucks' has formed a long-standing relationship with Cummins and continues to thrive with new, more powerful, more efficient and cleaner turbo diesel engines. Late last year Cummins produced the 1.5-millionth diesel engine for the Dodge Ram.

Aside from the NOx absorber and the self-cleaning DPF, the 6.7-litre turbo diesel engine includes other technologies that improve fuel efficiency and at the same time reduce unburned hydrocarbons.

The 6.7-litre Cummins turbo diesel is durable and very powerful, has life-to-major overhaul intervals of 560,000 kilometers, providing more than a 160,000-kilometre advantage over the competition. Equipped with new Cummins clean-diesel technology, Dodge will also introduce an all-new turbo diesel engine in its light duty Ram pickup trucks after 2009.

96 dodge ram cummins turbo diesel. can't find the fuel pump.?

Have pulled the bed. Where exactly is the fuel pump between the fuel tank and the injector pump. Is there a picture somewhere that we could look at to help also. Thanks so very much.

on a 96 the fuel pump is mounted to the side of the eng. block on drivers side just above the starter
