Thanks. I am trying to convince myself and get a underdrive pulley. But a programer which keeps my horsepower but firms shifts, adjust shift points and gets rid of some torque management would put me in the low 14s high 13s with my current setup (With better traction).

After the pulley and a better programer, it's cam time baby. I should just bite the bullet and buy a 426 Hemi. But that would be too easy and expensive.

Nah, you'll never hit 13s with your mods and just adding another programmer to it, you are already running a HYPERTECH and the new superchips in no fit, form, or fashion is going to shave another second off your already modded and programmed truck. You might pull a 14.4 to 14.6 at best when you add the superchips programmer. It takes alot to dump a half second to a full second off of our trucks, especially with you having the weight of a quad cab. You need to look into some weight reduction mods, you already have some good mods to pull it thru the 1/4, but the overall weight is killing you, also what is the weight and size of the tire/wheel pkg. you have vs. the factory ones. If you went lighter, you'd really be surprised as the difference it makes in times.

Not if the weather is bad. I am going on the 15th, by then I am hoping to have a ASP Underdrive Pulley, 180 Degree Thermo, Taylor wires and NGK 5306 plugs. We will see what happens....
