It is basic business 101. Supply and Demand. By the way how much gain did you get from a 2mm increase in TB anyway. I hope the TB was free.

Business 101 huh?? Well just because they price there crap so high..i don't see how much business they will do. But to each his own iguess..as long as none of there stuff ever touches my truck. As for the TB..I haven't been on the dyno yet..but it was good enough for 1 or 2 tenths in the quarter...I ceratinly am glad i didn't pay for an overpriced F&B!! I have raced ppl with F&B's and similar mods and have pulled slighly on them..not a whole lot..but still a little. Price doesn't make a part fast..nor looks. Knowledge to be able to put together a combo that works does.

first off why bother posting timeslips..when i could just as easily post some bogus slips..so if you want to know what the truck runs...come out here and run me and find out for yourself. Second,how do you know that your set up is more advanced then mine?? you don't know what i am running?? But for all the money you have into your truck yours better be more avdanced and better be able to whoop mine!! if not then maybe U are BULLSH*T!!

Because you sound like a tight ass penny pincher and you go for the low budget bolt on, low gain mods. Tell us all what you got! This is fun. We are like old bickering men sitting on the porch bs'in. Good stuff right there!

hahah i agree..the stuff you argue about when you are bored!! Glad to have someone to debate with!! Anyways...have M1-2bl,fastman 52mm tb, Crane 1.7 rrs, mopar r/t 2.02 heads,custom grind lunati cam,paxton s/c, true 2.5" duals with xpipe..no cats..mopar computer..electric fan, 2800 stall, in a 400lb. lighter gen2 body...thats about it. Like i said..you should be able to whoop my ass..but i am sure you would be pretty pissed if you only took me by a fender..and your truck with all the extras probably cost you three times the price of mine. And you bet your as* i am a penny pincher..cause i have two other hot-rods....this is just my daily driver. Kudos to your good dyno run..very impressive...i just would like to see moe aftermarket help..without the outrageous prices from the ppl at gs motorsports and i doubt i am the only one!! Catch ya tomorrow

At least you are so busy arguing with 94 that you aren't sniveling about Dodge.

True DAT! 94, if you have all that it would be close and yes O I would be pissed if I lost. GSMotorsport is not all that. I have had issues with them that probably will end any future business with them. But there stuff works..

I am sure there stuff probably works great..like i said it just sux that we don't have the aftermarket support the other brands get..and the few we do have seem to overprice things a little. I understand ppl have to make money..and supply and demand. But i would think you would first build a strong clientel..and a establish a good name and reputation..with follows increase in price. I am young..but from the old school way of i will make something work..or just plain make it from scratch if i can't. But for those of us who can't and just want some honest performance for a good price..the kind of power the truck should've had from the get go..it can get quite expensive..if you are not hunting down deals at swap meets and message boards. I would like to know what you do to your truck in the future, sounds like you found a good combo!! Ever think about going to 4:10 gears??
