Expert Answers about Cold Air Intakes


  • How Much Power would the Magnaflow Cat-Back System give a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.7 L
  • I spoke to my contact at Magnaflow and he informed me that this MagnaFlow Stainless Steel Cat-Back Exhaust System # MF16834 that you referenced would give between 9-15 horsepower. When combined with a cold air intake I would imagine you would see a total gain of between 15-25 horsepower. A programmer would not be required for these modifications but they would help you get a little more power out of your setup.

  • How Much Horsepower Does Magnaflow Cat-Back Kit Give 2014 Chevy Camaro with 3.6 liter V6
  • Cat-back exhaust systems like the Magnaflow part # MF15353 that fits your 2014 Chevy Camaro with a 3.6 liter V6 will give the vehicle around 10 horsepower or so. If you combine that with a cold air intake and an underdrive pulley you'd likely see around a 20 horsepower gain. Also the car would sound better!

  • Horsepower Increase of Edge Programmer Installed on 2006 Ford F-250 Powerstroke
  • The Edge CS2 programmer part # EP85301 is normally good for up to 80 additional horsepower and 200 ft lbs of torque on a totally stock vehicle. With basic bolt ons the power increase is hard to specify exactly but typically the bolt modifications work great with the programmers and you gain right at the same power on top of the power increase of the bolt ons. Now you did say you have a upgraded turbo which if the turbo is a different size than what your truck came with you'd need to look...

  • How to Determine Towing Capacity for a 2004.5 Dodge Ram Cummins
  • The final authority on what your towing capacity will be the owners manual of your 2004.5 Dodge Ram. Without knowing whether you have a 2500 or 3500 would make it pretty hard to determine. You also need to consider that even though you have modified your vehicle you still are limited to the factory capacity for your truck. Taller tire and lift kits can make it more difficult to tow the vehicle level, but it's still possible. Capacities are more than just the power the engine produces....

  • Recommended Air Bags for Cold Weather on a 2012 GMC Sierra 2500
  • They operate normally in extreme temperatures like the cold winters of the northeast. According to Firestone and Air Lift, there aren't any special procedures needed during cold weather regarding the care and use of air bags. Like tires you may see a decrease in pressure do to extreme cold temperatures. As far as road salt goes Air Lift makes special kits with stainless steel mounting brackets and lines. For your 2012 GMC Sierra 2500, you would need the LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Plus Air...

  • Correct Tire Pressure Needed For a Castle Rock ST225/75R15 Tire on 2021 Starcraft Super Lite 281BH
  • As your Castle Rock ST225/75R15 shows 80psi cold that is the pressure that you want to have for your 2021 Starcraft Super Lite 281BH. It sounds like you may have the Load Range E version of the Castle Rock ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire # 274-000029 as our load range D only requires 65psi cold. Be sure you are checking and filling the tires when they are cold as the air pressure in the tires will increase as they are driven and become warm. This is normal for tires to be filled when cold.

  • Is Pressure Listed on Tire Sidewall for a Cold or Hot Tire
  • The pressure listed on the tire's sidewall is intended for when the tire is cold. The air pressure will increase a bit as the tire heats up, but that will not cause an issue and is still perfectly safe. We frequently get asked if it's advisable to reduce the pressure in a trailer tire, below what's stated on the sidewall. We don't recommend doing this, as the most trailer tire manufacturers do their load testing with the tires at full pressure. If the pressure is reduced, so is the capacity...

  • What is Recommended Tire Pressure for Trailer Tires
  • Special trailer tires should be inflated to their maximum air pressure. The value for the maximum air pressure should be listed along with the value for the maximum load on the tire's sidewall. These values will usually designate the maximum load at a maximum psi. For example, if the tire is rated at 1,610 lbs maximum at 65 psi, the tire can carry 1,610 lbs of weight if the air pressure is at the maximum of 65 psi. At the maximum air pressure, the tires will perform and wear best, and get...

  • What Should Trailer Wheel and Tire TA82MR Be Inflated to
  • Special trailer tires should be inflated to their maximum air pressure. The value for the maximum air pressure should be listed along with the value for the maximum load on the tire's sidewall. These values will usually designate the maximum load at a maximum psi. For example, the wheel and tire combo you bought part # TA82MR has a max pressure rating of 1,760 lbs at 50 psi which means you need to keep the tire at 50 psi when cold.

  • What Tire Pressure Should Trailer Tires be Inflated To
  • The Kenda 205/65-10 Bias Trailer Tire # AM3H480 that you referenced should be inflated to 90 psi. Trailer tires should always be inflated to their maximum psi listed on the side of the tire. At the maximum air pressure, the tires will perform and wear best, and get the best gas mileage. If a trailer tire is inflated to a lower air pressure than the maximum, the amount of weight that the tire can carry will be reduced. If a heavier load is put on the trailer tire than what is recommended...

  • Recommended Air Pressure for a Goodyear Endurance ST225/75R15 Radial Tire
  • 70 PSI. The Goodyear Endurance ST225/75R15 Radial Tire item # LH33FR, you were looking at, is a load range E tire with a maximum capacity of 2,830lbs at 80 PSI per tire. The air pressure can be lowered to as much as 25 PSI which will support 1,430 lbs per tire or as high as 80 PSI with a 2,830 lbs per tire load. Those settings for your tire pressure sensors do sound correct. I have included the tire pressure chart from Goodyear on the allowable tire pressures and load capability ratings.

  • Will Incorrect Tire Inflation Pressure Affect Handling from Grand Design Reflection 28BH 5th Wheel
  • If you were running your new special trailer tires a full 30-psi below their rated (and required) 110-psi inflation pressure then that is probably the cause for the degraded handling from your Grand Design Reflection trailer. Special trailer tires, the ST-type, must ALWAYS be inflated to their maximum COLD psi pressure as noted on the tire sidewall. It is never appropriate to under- or over-inflate a trailer tire for any reason; there is no benefit to doing so and this can cause loss of...

  • Trailer Tire Load Ranges and Inflation Pressure on 2012 Coachman Catalina 28bh
  • Trailer tires should always be inflated to the maximum cold psi pressure rating shown on the tire sidewall. Only when fully inflated can a trailer tire deliver its rated weight-carrying capacity. That said, it is not a good idea to mix tires on a trailer, neither sizes nor load range ratings. The lower-rated tires will run hotter than the higher-rated ones and could be more prone to failure. Heat is the worst enemy of a trailer tire. The 3 most common causes for excess heat are incorrect...
