Hello fellow Titan owners,
I had some great mods done over the weekend that I wanted to share with everyone. This was done on my 2008 Nissan Titan SE 4-Wheel Drive Long Bed.
AEM Brute Force CAI (P# AEM-21-8502DP) = $261.99
Bully Dog GT (Gas Tuner) (P# 40410) = $324.79
22" Magnaflow Muffler (P# 12588) = $195.00
12" Magnaflow Exhaust Tip (P# M/F35113) = $51.84
Blend Mount for Bully Dog = $61.25
Total Install Cost = $189.25
Total Cost = $1,084.12
I am not really a "do-it yourselfer" so I had everything installed by a couple of local shops. I could have gotten the muffler about $70 little cheaper by ordering online, but the shop had it in stock at the time and I didn't want to wait another week for delivery from somewhere else. Plus I didn't have the tip at the time of muffler install, so he said I could just bring it by next week and he will weld it on for no extra charge. I purchased the Blendmount after the intial install of the Bully Dog, so I did install that myself. It was a very simple install. Screwed the mount to the mirror stem, ran the wires under the headliner, took off the A-Pillar and ran wires down and under the dash.
Everything seems to work nicely. I really haven't had a chance to test the bully dog, but so far I am really liking what it is able to do. The muffler is great, not too much louder than stock, haven't really noticed any drone. I asume it will get a little louder the more I drive it though. The CAI looks great, but I only have one small minor issue. When I step on it hard, I get a small vibration for a brief 2-4 seconds and then it goes away. It sounds like its coming from under the hood and maybe somewhat under the dash. Its really hard to pinpoint. I took it back to the installer and they said they have heard of this happening before. Its really hit and miss as to which trucks it affects they say. There was nothing they could do so I guess I will just have to live with it. One of the techs said it could be the heat shield, or the harmonic balance may be off due to adding this intake. They just dont have any idea. I can live with it since it doesn't happen during "normal" driving conditions and when I step on it, it only last for a few seconds and its gone. If anyone has run into this problem before, please tell me how to fix, Im all ears.
I posted a few pics, I hope they come out decent. I know the Bully Dog install pic is a little hard to see, but the light wasn't on my side. This is my first post, so I hope its a good one and it is informative to everyone.
