M8y truck is stock, anyt suggestions for mods. Whats your best time in a stock truck
thats about the par for stock if its a 5.3, if its a 4.8 your ahead of the game, as far as traction posi for sure or slicks or wider tires.

Start with the limited slip diff, add CalTracs traction bars and then last but not least, DOT legal drag radials. Slicks are cool but their a pain to have to mount and dismount at the track and you don't want to drive to the track with slicks on.

what about some add ons anyone offer a turbo kit or mainfolds for a 5.3 for a turbo setup.
Allen, Farmtruc, can fix you up with an STS rear mounted turbo setup and programming for maximum power. Livernois has a front mounted turbo setup, also. I like the STS theoretically. I don't own one but I like the setup since it can be installed in a day.

Get tuning, it wakes the beast inside up
I was wondering about the sts setup for my 5.3 as well, but what about if you have dual exhaust?

I guess if you wanted to keep true duals you could go with the Corvette setup that has dual turbos. Personally I think I would just change it back to a singe 3" pipe going back to the turbo and then maybe split a exhaust to give it a fake dual exhaust. The gains in power will be well worth a little exhaust work.

Yeah i was surprised at the mph. my 60ft was a joke. I know its a one legger truck so its not bad. whats the best bang for the buck for my first upgrade. I only have a after cat exhaust. As i crossed the finish line i shifted into 3rd to keep from hitting the rev limiter.
Also any suggestions for launcing. I stall a little then flash the converter. Whats works for you guys.
