Too bad I'm not close to Houston. I'm thinking about installing a TruTrac soon. So....how does your truck perform now? I know you're supposed to take it easy for a while but how's the truck run under moderate acceleration?

I went from 3.42's to 4.10's and it was definitely noticeable. Hoping to break into the 14's next time at the track...
