I definitley wouldn't drive all those mods on a stock file. That is asking for it. You must be running extremely lean. That is a huge airflow increase through the chambers without any extra fuel.

but you gotta ask yourself the real question, are you still gonna be able to keep calm and baby it when something pulls up next to you and starts reving at you..? idling and driving around the neighborhood is one thing, but getting into it untuned as much as you are wouldnt take much to hurt something... just my 2cents..

Ive been having second thoughts. Probably just sit this one out. And next year, rather then just going with a stock appearing truck , ill be drag racing.

Wouldnt the computer compensate, somewhat, for the extra air? Probably not enough tho?
