I should start telling people that I have an integrated intake/exhaust system. When I say 408 a lot of people hear 4.8.

So it is a 4.8!!! I knew it!!! You liar...



I always get the same dumb question....

Guy: Whats that whistling noise???
Me: uh.. its got a turbo.


Some guy thought it was a Duramax one time.. now that was funny!
he went on about his buddy that has a Duramax that has a chip in it..
I just listen and say " Oh Really?" and go about my buisness.


Just wait till i get my Throttle Body spacer!!! I can say its just my spacer then... or my Tornado..
They wont ever know..

Most people just think have loud exhaust so they don't even ask. My truck only runs a 14.7 anyways.
