let us know how you like that TB from Moes.... I have a fastman, and I like it, but i'm considering getting one from Moe's

oh i will let you know.. and if i dont like it i live real close to him:killer:
im all for having a fast truck but since your a cc weight is going to play against you. if you really want to wake things up id lookin into FI. with the price of a cam swap, tune converter and supporting mods you will be in the ball park of a fairlly new/used TVS2300. low boost it should be a more reliable DD then with a na build with a truck the produces more power. just my 0.2s

see ive contimplated this over and over.... i know your right just not sure what i want to do... really havent seen a turbod gas engine so not sure what they are capable of or what they sound like.... i like a nice little loop with a cam and that look lets everyone know that you mean buisness but i know the turbo will do the same

you can still get a lopey blower cam with a SC even a turbo. its all how much u want to spend. I persoanlly like turbo for there topend preformance backed behind a yank or circle D 3000 stall. while blowers are more geared towards low end torque and alot of smoke shows.:********: theres a vid on youtube of an RT putting down 425 to the wheels with just 5 pounds of boost muffler swap and stock manifolds. you can't make that type of power with a NA setup with out breaking some serious bank in teh process. Just comes down to time and money. once they get custom tuning for these 11/12s ill be getting a maggie installed asap.

ya that where i saw it. ive been into the whole truck hot rod scene for about 10 years now and coming from the bowtie club when it comes to hotrodding. you can make great power out of LS (4.8,5.3,6.0,6.2,7.0) motors but i can see the new hemi matching there potential once tuning comes available. Forced induction is like crack it becomes very addicting and once you get use to low boost them comes the real candy "more boost" If you like preformance and urge to learn about forced induction id check out preformancetrucks.net great info site but leans more towards GM but the site holds some of the fastest truck in the country. before you start building id check out all your options you might just turn the other way and boost the hemi:secret:
