Default Pulled thrice on friends 06 goat

My friend has a 06 6.0 with just a catback. From a dig my nittos hooked well and I got him by several car lengths, we did two 20 mph rolls, the first one I got a nice half car jump in first then full car length lead while in second, I missed 3rd second run he confused me on his third honk and he got a half length jump on me, till I get into third and my ram air kicked it up a notch to pull infront. Half way through 4th I was almost a full length ahead. Will do a 40mph roll soon.

Sounds like he hung pretty good for being stock and you having bolt ons, drag radials and heads.

Good kill.

That's an interesting setup you have there. Any numbers for it?

No numbers, till I get cam in and tune, it was the best/closest run I've had so I posted it. I've seen GTOs beating up on f-bods so I was pleased.

Tell your friend to look into a Vavaram CAI: best mod the money can buy, period! Should give him the edge in your next race all by itself-- just tell him to drive it for a hundred miles so the computer can readjust to the new airflow characteristics. And don't listen to the haters saying all cold air inductions are the same: there's been dozens of dyno and drag strip comparo's between the CAI's, the vavaram is the hands down winner- and one of the cheapest out there, too. Have him PM me if he needs install help, to do it right is not as simple as it looks.
