Welcome to Titan Talk!

First mod i suggest getting is the Detroit Tru Trac LSD.

You have numerous Cold air intakes to choose from as well as different exhaust variations. I'm sure someone on this board has a video/setup that you will like or choose to branch off from.
-Long tube headers made by Stillen, Doug Thorley, those are both great places to start.
-JimWolfeTechnology makes Camshafts for the titan, such as the JWT S7/S2 cam package.

Those are just some of the modifications you can go with. There is also TONS of information on this board that if you have a question and start a thread and its not answered the way you want..try a quick search and I'm sure you will find the answer you need.

Some of the top performance mods, with great seat of the pants feel/results, have been the Transgo Shift kit, and Detroit Tru Trac Limited slip differential.. The transmission in the titan needs some ''modded'' attention if you plan on spending cash on go fast parts.

If I had to do it all over again with modding, the Tru Trac LSD would've been very first mod, its amazing how much better the titan feels and the added reassurance of NOT having a stupid open differential.

There are tons of suspension mods you can do, 2in,4in,6in,8in lifts, even lowering kits if you plan on going with 22s or 24s. Options are endless as long as your wallet is willing! lol.

Great to have you on board, happy modding!

I lost on average about 2mpg city/highway when I took of my stock 18s and put on the KMC Rockstar 20x10 on all 4, with cooper 305/50/20s, those sumbiotches are heavy!

My fuel mileage stays around 12.5mpg city and 15-16 on hwy. Its horrible mpg, but anyone who buys a truck should already have the mindset that ''boxes'' aren't fuel efficient.

i'd like to know what Toomnymods turbo titan gets on the highway, mpg wise. That turbo should help with fuel efficiency if you keep your foot out of it.

Lol, just go with duals. and use a X- Pipe as well.

I still have factory size B-pipe diameter piping coming right off the headers for like a foot on each bank, just so I could keep the rear 02 senors.... about six inches after those rear 02s its all welded with tru dual setup, listed in my signature, which is all 2.5in piping and 3in dumps(as far as pipe size goes)

And yes go with Borla ProXS mufflers!

,,,and maybe some resonators if you plan on getting headers and/or removing cats.


I can't feel a loss in low end lol:teeth: If backpressure is what we need then my exhaust setup should provide just a lil lol.

This is by far the most complicated thread EVER...

Dude... Seriously... I'm not been sure what's going on anymore...

What you should really do is start off with 3.50" cats that go to a "U" pipe that's 3.25" and then blend that into a 90 deg "L" bend that will help with the dual exhaust flow, and then after the dump install some magna flows for ZERO CIS...

:eyebrow:
No no no, you got the U-pipe and L-Bend pipe sizes/degrees all wrong! They are supposed to 180deg backazzwards into a 5in A-Pipe, which is a Y-pipe with a built in H-style crossover at the Y's split lol.

Actually an A-Pipe kinda makes sense... lol:bangit:



You guys remember SMITHYS Mufflers, now owned by Patriot or whoever. Now those are some glasspacks! (offtopic a lil I know):teeth:

that first video of Chuck tuckers shows the underside of the exhaust, thats the same x-pipe i'm using. My Titan sounded like that for a few minutes at the exhaust shop one day when I was getting work done.

Except at that point I had, Long tube headers, no cats. 2.5in piping to magnaflow magnapacks, sounded mean as hell... Then I added Flowmaster 40s after the magnapacks, now it sounds like teh sex.

So basically I have 4x straight thru resonators and 2x two chambered mufflers lol. For a total of 6 mufflers if you wanna be technical lol.


Mine goes... Headers, X-Pipe, Magnapacks (resonators), Flowmaster 40s(chambered), Apexi Resonators, turn downs...

It looks crazy under my T.

haha here is the picture!




Cool thing is, the maganpacks were $50 and Flowmaters $100 and Apexi's were free. Minus the headers, I only have about $350-$400 invested that includes labor.

MilenkoGT - That's quite an exhuast system! Do you have video of your truck so we can hear what is sounds like?
Thought you'd never ask lol, I sure do!

Here is a video with everything in my signature and picture I posted previously, minus the apexi resonators.



Here is the video of the exhaust in my signature and picture I posted previously.
Rev up, fly by.

I'm wondering how my truck would run if say I installed JWT CS2 cams and ran them on my current tune. Would the truck/tune be fine to log some E-Tunes, or would I need to have the cams installed at Relentless where there is a dyno at their dealership/facility?

This has been a concern for me. I'm thinking my current Uprev Pro-tune should be fine to handle the new JWT CS2 cams...

What do you guys think?

I can't really say anything about Doug Thorley's recent release of headers for the Titan, but I was one of the first in a group to get the a set of headers from doug thorleys first batch back almost 2 years ago. Can't remember the name of the guy I got them but he was a very reputable dealer on ebay IIRC. He owned a shop and distributor for Doug Thorley.

The stillen headers were my first choice though, but I couldn't pass up on the price for the Thorleys at the time I purchased mine.

Plus IIRC the titan firing order seems like it works pretty well in conjunction with a Tri-Y design header. just my .02

you dont need to pay 500 for that you need an etune-50, and a cipher cable.(buy it used i payed 100 for mine) contact uprev to let them know you already have it send them your rom and bam bam they send you an update for your uprev program (assuming you have already downloaded all of the free software/programs from UpRev - Engine Management) now im able to data log and flash a new tune to my ecu......i did the same thing you did at churches automotive 5 tunes on the dyno. cheers
Yep, i downloaded both Cipher and OSIRIS PDFs/software off their site...haven't had a chance to read thru both of them just yet.

But yeah I would like to get to do some logs with cipher (once I get the cable) and then get an Etune and compare between my Dyno protune and Etune.

The truck runs great as is, just gets 11.5mpg in my 93 tune. lol oh well.
