Post '00 L hot setup?

I would like to learn from your trial and errors. A lot of the members here have tried different setups: chips, filters, ram air kits, pro-m, gears, nitrous, etc. I'm realy looking to join in that 12 sec. club. I have a couple of months to get it there before spring. So please help. thank you........

Instead of telling to search like SOMEBODY here will do,i will give the best set up,i would do if i started over.More insnt nessasarily better

JDM chip
JDM INTAKE
JDM throttle body
Johnny Lightning ram air
3.73 gears

I would do those in that exact order but I would definatley do 1,2 at the same time! Im running a good chip that is not as high in performance as JDM with a intake and Just with those two items,I have run in the 12s at Ford Fun Weekend and won the street championship this year at NEW ENGLAND DRAGWAY.Have you ever been?

Thank you both for the replies, they sound like realy good mods. I took my truck to New England Dragway in Sept. I bought the truck the week before. I was on vacation that week so i was able to put a few miles on it. A trip to North Conway, N.H., A trip to Hampton beach, and some crusin locally. So when i raced it at the track it had about 550 miles on it. I ran a 14.2 wasn't very happy, i was hoping to run in the 13's. I ran a 13.7 around thanksgiving on my g-tech. I just wan't it to turn in the 12's so thanks for the advise. The night i was at N.E.Dragway there was a 2000 red, and a 2000 silver. Was either one possibly you? thanks again for the feed back
