He is dissappointed that he didn't get anything out if his gears. We raced before the gears and I slowly walked away putting a few lengths on him and after the gears it was the same result from a dig, 20, and 30. I figured he would beat me with the gears in but it was the same races. I was just as shocked as he was...

I don't think I would gain much if any with a bigger cam...I'll try the stall first. I'm thinkin that'll really wake up the cam. I don't use the nitrous much, just on the weekends occasionaly. The 300 pounds of weight I had in the back of the truck today(traction) didn't help me much but that still wouldn't have made up the difference.

So lets see...spend a $1000 dollars for me guys...counting the TT3000($500)

What is your goal? Are your expectations achievable with a pickup? Do you have the Torgue Mngt out of it? That should help. Have you considered a small super charger.
I can't imagine that an intake swap is going to net you a gob. Do you have an open MAF? The screen will create a restriction at higher RPM. just like in exhaust, you will only flow as good as your smallest area. The MAF and your T/B will be your smallest area.
let us know what you do.

I have no set goals really...low 13's I dunno...I just wanna see good results out of the money that I spend like other people do. Torque managent is 95% removed...The tune is awesome, dead on...I mean I've put down 311HP on a mustang dyno. Maybe we need to street tune it to get shift points better. I dunno.

I'll see what the TC nets me and go from there. If i'm not happy there I'll just go get a regular cab and be done with it
