I've been waiting on him to do headers and see the difference. N/A these trucks gain around 25 whp, would certainly open up even more with the blower.

LOL I'll keep poking at ya until you do it.

And just to rub it in....

Just think, you can spend less than 10% of what you did on the blower and get about 30% of the gain you just got (okay fine probably 20% ish).. Speed engineering setup is only $400 and supposed to be pretty nice, and you should get over 30 whp uncorking that blower.

Oh and don't forget how shiny they are too. That's always important.

I think I would still give the Texas Speed headers a try. They are only 650 which is not bad also.

I agree, I was just using the $400 price tag to twist your arm more. From what I hear though, the Speed Engineering ones are great too.

I'm really torn between the two, I was dead set on the Texas Speed one's until I talked to Sam and he recommended using the speed engineering headers.

I actually figured that's what you were after. I fully understand, I'd do the same.


The fun in this game is the challenge.

Finally got a full test and tune in at a local track. 83 - 78 degrees with a DA of 2787 and the lowest is got was 2650. Not the best air but I'll say the truck is pretty damn consistent. 13.28, 13.27, 13.20, and 13.20 all 101-102mph in the 1/4, 8.43, 8.40, 8.40, and 8.44 in the 1/8, and with 1.83, 1.83, 1.84, and 1.87 60ft times. Had some wheel spin off the line also all 4 passes. I'm pretty happy with that. Best part of the night raced a kid with a 2004 Saleen S281 with intake, exhaust and radials and he only beat me by .0275 with me having a .5 slower reaction time. I went to talk to him and he was all pissed off and left the track.
