Whats up from Tx

TXNoFearTitan · 11-25-2007, 12:20 PM

Hello all. I have been trolling this site for a while and decided to post up. I live in North Texas and I have an 06 No-Fear Titan.
Specs:
2006 Texas Titan 2wd
No Fear Basic
ProComp Xtreme Mt's
60k
and not much else done to it.

I'll post up some pics when I have enough posts.

I'm a sales rep in N TX for DSI and we build the No-Fear Titans for the dealers across the country.If anyone has any questions I will be glad to answer them for you.

I'm not here in any official capacity just as a Titan owner.

Thanks for the great site and all the resources.

Jason

Any experience lifting 08's?

**anmut** · 11-25-2007, 12:40 PM

any chance you can hook us up with some deals on parts?

luvbelly · 11-25-2007, 01:37 PM

Welcome, sounds like you have good reason to be a Titan fan. I see you are from Texas, alot of the members here are. There must be alot of happy Titans owners down there.

My uncle drives truck and says there are A LOT of Titans down south. Up here there are hardly any. It's cool though - it's like an exclusive club, we all wave to each other!

Well how about throwing some friendly reviews are way of any products you've got on your mind? INFO man, we care INFO!!

Well , how about the exhaust for the Titan. I have experience with the Banks,Gibson,Magnaflow and JBA catback systems as well as your run of the mill welded up muffler shop Flowmaster etc.... My .02 is that the Magnaflow by far has the best performance and sound and a decent install.The Banks and JBA have strong resonance in the cab at cruising speed and it only get worse when you add a hard tonneau cover. The install of the Banks is probably the easiest of the bunch but I like Magnaflows band clamps. Gibson....well obnoxious resonance in the cab,terrible instructions,crappy squeeze style clamps , and tips are optional. Need I say more.

From a performance standpoint you should never have a muffler shop bend up and weld in a cat back exhaust. The pinch bends , welded connections , and inadequate pipe diameter are just a few reasons I can think of.Stay away from these no matter how good the deal is.The majority of the time you will loose performance when the type of work is done. Across the country there are a few places that install custom mendral bent systems , but they are few and far between.

Just my experience and not an official opinion.

Cool welcome Jason!!
how you like them tires??

TXNoFearTitan · 11-26-2007, 12:09 AM

Best tire ProComp has ever produced. I have been using these in my builds since they hit the ground. I have 2k on the ones on my Titan and they run nice and smooth down the road. The tire whine is just slightly louder than the XAT's I had for the first 58k.

I'm interested to know if you've come across any noisy steering racks on trucks (Titans) you've built? What are the slight differences?

RB's Titan · 11-26-2007, 08:34 AM

hey do you guys install S/C as well?

TXNoFearTitan · 11-26-2007, 08:47 AM

No, not any noisy racks(rack and pinion I assume).

The 08 frame is slightly different and the front brakes are quite a bit larger. 17" aftermarket wheels are no longer an option on the 08's. The grille is different and internally the dash cluster is new. Outside of those few things , there isn't much different.

As far as superchargers go, I thought Stillen was the only one out there. Buying direct from Stillen is the best way to go as they don't give anyone a price break. No our retail stores(4wp) will not install a supercharger on any vehicle. Company policy!

I thought you meant slight differences when installing the lift, not feature differences (sorry, I should have specified).
Any specific problems you've encountered when lifting the 08's?

ttburden · 11-26-2007, 11:21 AM

Living in VA with an 06 "Texas Titan 4wd" any other Texas Titan owners? 8k at this point and only probs have been a/c prob with insulation slipping and blocking ducts-also, habitual parking lights (only) failure. After 4 trips to dealer tranny cooler fan found frozen and wiring harness burned in 3 places-both replaced by dealer.
