you need to hook your boost bypass up to your wiper motor for the vacuum actuation and put the flux capacitor between the plenum and blower which means you'll definitely want to get an oil separator. but really the chrome ultra-lite valve stem caps are da schiznitt.

Thanks for the welcome guys! I am trying not to mod anything until next spring. I probably don't need more HP for the slick winter roads. I bought it drive it, so no putting the truck to bed for the winter.

Great first post.

You need to come down to Indy sometime so we can meet you.

I drive mine everyday, just change the rear tires and put sand tubes in the bed.

Lol. Your truck does not do 0-60 in 4 seconds. not with a 12.8 converted Quarter. More like 0-60 in 4.5-4.6 seconds

Yah its totally wrong. Try using a G-Tech or something while at the track. When I ran 12.90 at the track a while ago my 0-60 was 4.7 and my 60 foot according to my timeslip was 1.9.

Check out this same 0-60 / 1/4 mile converter on the site totally contradicting the other one. This one looks a lot more beliveable.

This one puts 3.99= 12.1 lol.

4.5 = 12.8 just like I said

and mine

4.7 = 13.0 pretty close
