How to Increase the Boost on a Dodge Cummins

A boost fooler will increase the boost of your Dodge Ram Cummins diesel engine.

You can increase the boost of your Dodge Ram Cummins engine by installing a "boost fooler." These units are produced by aftermarket performance companies for your Dodge Cummins diesel. You will need to verify the year of your vehicle to ensure you get the correct unit. You can have these units installed by a mechanic, or you can do the installation yourself and save money. A boost fooler will increase the boost from the turbo and lower your exhaust gas temperatures.
