Goin faster.....
Now I know none of you upstanding citizens would ever do this, but I was cruisin one of the main streets in Tulsa earlier tonight for the first time and it was pretty cool, till this guy in a 5.3 got up next to me and gunned it. Needless to say, my 4.8 just didnt hold up to it. So now I've gotta get my truck to where I can atleast keep up with the little guys, lol. My truck is a 2003 reg cab 4x4 with a 4.8 as i stated. All it has that I know of is flowmasters, and thats it. I plan on getting an intake and considering getting it chipped after I get my ram-air hood. So I guess my question is really any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help. Oh yea, wish me luck for tonight. (Its 2 in the morning here)

Re: Goin faster.....
Probably shouldn't bother with a TB spacer

Re: Goin faster.....
I've done exhaust and intake, and can beat a 5.3. I say this only based on one race so no offense to anyone. My plan was to make the motor awesome, but another project has me occupied.
