from what I'm reading(not a whole lot of info out there) they typically put down a little over 300rwhp. That sounds like a pretty sweet setup; all the fuel economy of the stock motor(probably more) with some good power when you want it.

On the freeway coming in to work this morning set @ 80mph cruise, yeilded 2200 rpms......engine has a 6250rpm redline stock. I can see 23mpg with the right mods

I had the opportunity to run one at the 1/8 mile track. i let him have the hit with my Duramax with Predator set to 65 hp. He got half a truck on me and kept it there. They are low 10 second 1/8 mile trucks stock, which ain't half bad. Add another 100 hp and you are looking at a truck in the low 14's or high 13's in the quarter. A definite sleeper for sure.

I haven't had the chance to wack her open all the way yet, been cycling the load on the rings, anyway, it does feel like a peppy little truck which might surprise a few people even in stock form.
I'd like this truck to stay KISS........Blower, Headers, Catback....done

Next thing you know you won't have anything to drive because you will be working on them both at the same time.

A Nissan....

What's next a Toyota...

Sounds like a nice truck, enjoy
