My bad, I thought we were talking stock and in that case Hemis are slow I guess its all in the comparison.

I can see they respond quite well to mods though. Though to be completly honest my truck and your trucks are worlds apart. You actually have a truck, whereas I have a AWD S-15 that cant tow, cant haul, and sucks premium.
No times here. Pretty much stock (and now 15 years old, 100K miles) so I would guesstimate 13.5-14.0 . Working out a mod plan.

You have something against Lightnings? J/K Yeah we might have a blower and good HP/TQ stock but we also weigh somewhere around 5000lbs.Not to mention these trucks don't hook too well to say the least.

Well..... I really do not have much in the mod dept... My homemade CAI and the Superchips... I weigh a little less than stock at 4670 lbs. 1/4 tank, no tailgate or spare, roll pan and removed the Tow Frame. and a little shot of NOS so far... times in the sig. Still have the stock plugs and full exhaust system... Valve Covers have never been off, and 47,000 miles.... I am still waiting for a real tuner before I get crazy on mods....
Oh, and I did run 14.30's on 20's and no programmer..
