    Not to happy with the truck

    I went to the track sat night and it was fairly good conditions. Mid 70s humidity in the 50% range. I ran consistent low 13.8s all night. It seems like its just getting slower. I ran a 13.6 at the same track in 90* heat 3-4 months ago. I know the tune is off a little, its still a mail order tune. What do you guys thing should be the next thing to do to the truck? If its not in the poll feel free to add

    DUDE--you know what you need. Sorry we couldn't get it setup to get your live tune done before the track on Saturday night, but now that you are not in a rush to get it done--try and set something up when you get time. A live tune will really help you know where your truck sits with it's current list of mods. Once you get the tune, you will know where to go from there...

    well your cheapest mod would be spray that would get you 12's for sure on just a 100 shot and for the cost of about $700ish...put it on a button and just let off to let it shift...but before i built a 408 i would put a single front mount on it for about 4 grand and enjoy mid 12's...

    heads wouldnt mess with and intake eh i did it for more all motor hp...like i say my complete intake setup will be for sale soon

    After you get the tune lined out, start the mods.
    What's your budget, the mods listed above are from $200 to $8K?
    You forgot turbo on the list

    Short term budget would be around $1500. But i have another car i could drive so the truck could be down a while.

    How would turbo fair on my truck? with the high compression and the cam I have in?
