You are running 16.5+?

If you want to drop 2+ secconds you will need any combo of 250 HP or a little less HP and drop a good deal of weight.

A decent FI set up will do this but it still won't be easy. Where in Ohio are you?

your running around 16 sec. in the 1/4 with a 5-speed 2500hd?? thats pretty dang good... these trucks are pigs to begin with and way underpowered. start with a tune from black bear, a good intake and exhuast setup and that should shave a little bit off.
