Go to Bernd's site. Speedtweaks.net. He's got pretty much everything that works I think. If not there try Truckperformance.com

Try going down a really steep hill with your foot all the way to the floor and see how fast you can go.

Hey, I've tried that whole hill trick. It kinda works. I could only get the wimpy thing up to 97 mph, however.

Dave: What state are you in? We're currently looking for a 2.5L test truck for a turbo kit we're developing.

Bernd What's your best E/T? Looks like you have gone from pretend 4X4 to ultra racer.

Duner's turbo set up is pretty sweet hey. I am looking for a used SC out of a wrecked 5.0 right now that I can make my own brakets for. I ain't paying what would be well over $5,000 CAN for a KB. With our BS tax rate I would have to earn over $8,000.

It's a joke up here Bernd.

Jeffster: Best so far is a 15.2 @ 89-90mph. That was in October when we finally had our first chance to race the truck in its new form. Since then, we've added an intercooler and raised the NOS shot to a 35HP shot (from 25HP).

We're heading to the track tonight and, hopefully, will put her into the 14's. :)
