Remember that truck only has 3.08 gears and its a fully loaded crew cab 4x4. That little 1.9 blower only added 96 RWHP on 7psi. How fast do you think it was really gonna go? Lol throw a 2.3 with 10psi on it and then you'll see 12's.

Enough with the blowers. Time for a turbo or two.

Youre looking at this wrong... imagine what this can run with only a maggie and the correct set up at the track. It just made MORE power than your truck which ran in the 12's and its no heavier. Also, great numbers from a blower only. Headers and an exhaust alone would spice this up a lot.

The flip side is unless you were on the dyno with the converter locked you were likely making more power than this truck.
