New track times! 14's, barely!
First I would like to say, Mark (2004Denali) it was nice to meet a fellow PTN member. Sorry we could talk longer, maybe next time!
A little history, last November is when I ran my "previous" best, a 15.24 @ 88.22 mph. Back then I had a Magnaflow (12289) muffler using the stock tailpipe with resonator, an Airaid MIT using the stock airbox with a Ram-Air setup and the factory 20's with 275/60R20 tires. Tonight I ran a best of 14.98 @ 90.62 mph. This was with the stock muffler back on, the stock Hemi Hat back on still using the stock airbox with Ram-Air setup and factory 17's with 265/70R17 tires. I think my first bracket race time would have been faster, maybe a 14.95 judging by my 1/8 mile time and mph but I backed off because I was pretty far ahead. I lost in the second round to a fellow Hemi Ram owner, his reaction time was better and it just about equaled our different dial in times, 14.94 (me) vs 15.20 (him). I definitly need an LS rear end, this one legger is worthless. My first run was a 15.61 @ 90.59 mph, I hammered it off the line and spun like a big dog, had to back off the gas and then get back on it. The next three runs I really had to baby it off the line, not getting much of a jump out of the hole at all. When I decide to get another muffler and CAI, I'm getting a Flo-Pro HD muffler (suppose to be almost stock quiet and NO resonation but provide a nice boost in power, ya we'll see)) and a Volant CAI, I want use the Ram-Air set up I made and have an enclosed airbox so the induction noise isn't real loud. Overall I'm happy, made it into the 14's with a stock truck except for the Superchips I have. Not bad for a big ol Quad Cab.

A buddy of mine has a quad cab Hemi with the Corsa Sport. Great sound, great looks, and no resonance. He loves it.
