Default First time kill in new truck.....

I made my first kill today in my 03 ECSB. Some a@*hole in a new altima was following me as we entered a construction zone where the two lanes merged to one and at the last second this guy zooms past me to get ahead of me. what the hell its not like I wasn't going 10 over the limit anyways. So I opened my cutouts and reved on him the whole way though until it cleared back totwo lanes. At the next stop light we lined up and I droped it at about a 2000 RPM just and slammed the pedal. Ran up to about 95 before I shut it down. Had a length and a half on him. He looked confused I was so happy. One down millions more a@*holes to go!!!

Nice kill in the truck, man!!! Wait until you get your first 350Z kill. Those guys really have no idea what just happened when they get pulled by a truck. I had one revving at me(brand new, didn't even have a tag on it), so I gave in. Him and his buddy had a HUGE smile on their face when we left the light. By the time I stopped at another light and they finally caught back up, the smiles had mysteriously disappeared. Go figure. If you talk to them after beating them, they'll usually always tell you about what they're about to buy to make it faster...blah, blah. Just act interested and tell them to bring it when they get done. Chances are it will never happen.

So far I just have true duals with magnaflows and QTEC's, TB bypass (probably useless), and a heavy foot

Hell yeah I do. The 224 really does hit hard with the cutouts open at a light. Open them up beside someone, let them look your way, then close them back up. People are like I watched a woman in my rear view one day keep tilting and turning her head like she was trying to look under my truck. She must have thought my mufflers fell off or something.

What do you guys think I should go with for my cam and stall. I looked at the cam page, but it is just confusing to me to know what is best for my truck. I want smothing to really liven up the bottom end (since I lost a little with the exhaust). I think maybe something a little lopey, but not shake the bolts out of the truck popey. I wont T/C or S/C or a while so just NA.

I noticed in you first thread you said you wanted to move on to bigger and better things like a Hemi. Does anyone know what these things run?? My friend had one for about a month and now he is getting rid of it. It didnt feel that impressive over a stock 5.3, and it only got like 8 MPG in town and 15 on the highway going downhill with the wind at your back.

You can probably give a ecsb hemi a run for it's money now. Hell, you may even beat it. In fact, dammit...I know you will!
