I'm bored, what's next??

I'm trying to figure out what direction I'm going to go with my truck. Keep in mind I still want it to be a daily driver, but I'm looking for a 12 second truck when I take it to the track. Here are some options:

Not terrible since I have 3.42's.

It dropped a little but not much. It locks up around 45-47 mph so even cruising down the street it's not too bad. That 6.0 is where the difference will be!

crank the boost up. You know the engine can handle it so feed it!

Crank the boost (with tuning of course) and see what it will do for you. This is the easiest option so you can see where you stand.

Buy my truck, and put your STS on it.

BAM - 12 second truck (or faster).
