Well, guys... I'm really starting to run out of small/medium sized mods. What am I missing here? Anything I might be able to get before this weekend? I really want to make a statement against the guys I've got races lined up with. Thanks as always.

you could have nelson whip you up a tune for race fuel and just run it when you are racing. Also you could look into weight reduction (tail gate, spare, ect..). Besides that i think you have everything pritty much covered. Good luck!!!

As far as price or time needed to install or what?? If you want to make a statement I would get a wet kit and try your best to hide it. It may take some time to get a good hidden setup, but it would definately make a statement
I know thats probably not what your talkin about, but you know I had to
Other than something like that, I wouldnt waste any money on the other medium or small mods.
Race fuel tune sounds kind of cool!

I think I might do that. I'll have to get edit or hptuners, but I've been meaning to do that anyway. The truck will be all but completely stripped by next Sunday. Thanks, LTNKLR!

Anybody got a link to what all is involved in the process? Seems to be pretty easy, but I would hate to F it up.

OH i got an idea. I got it. Go to a pep boys or autozone and get a highpreformance aluminum racing wing. That is good for like 50+hp. Then you will be ready to race

Thats a good point. That is one thing I would be afraid to do, though. If its free, its for me!
