ahh I see

 

There was no Silverado Hybrid until GMT900 anyway; his is an 800. Must be fun to **** off the ecoweenies in their sweet Priuses (Prii?) though

 

absolutely destroyed a 5.7 obs rcsb the other night with my stock l33 ecsb nbs, and he pretty much interrogated me for a solid 20 minutes before i finally popped my hood and showed him that everything was still factory (for now). i've never seen anyone get that mad that fast before haha

 

does it have a hemi.... bahaha

 

pulled up to a gas station the other day and got asked if mine was a big block truck...guy looked at me like a grew a third eye when I said just a 5.3 with a baby cam.

 

The only time I used to take my truck in to get the oil changed was when I was busy and didn't see myself getting enough free time to do it my self. The last time I went and will ever go again, I pulled in told the guy what I needed done and he started. I got out and watched him as I always do. First thing he says is "Wow whats with that intake setup??"
(I have an ebay CAI)
Me:Whats wrong with it?
Him:You know that's a damn hot air intake right? People only run those on turbos and superchargers, then its a cold air intake. You should put the stock box back on and just put a k&n filter in it.
Me:Either way will work for me, this just cleans up the engine bay.
He looks me straight in the eyes and says:k&n drop ins gain 25 rwhp man.
I laughed and said: Please show me the dyno chart...
He got butthurt and asked when the last time I tightened my manifolds.. (I have longtubes any normal person that knows anything would just say headers) because he smelt an exhaust leak.. i said I check my headers every month, they're fine, how exactly do you "smell an exhaust leak"
By then he was done, I payed and just before I left I said
Not sure if you noticed but my idles a bit rough and before I could finish he said vacuum leak, yep youve got one bad.. leason learned, make time to change your own oil..

 

with the dual intake tubes and both head lights out on race day and the air charge that's pulled into the engine people walk by and make comments all the time that my truck either has twin turbo's on it or its supercharged

been asked numerous times with the hood up where am i hiding the turbos


guess they just dont know what a direct port nitrous system looks like lol

 

When I had my Ram:

"What is wrong with your truck?"
"Is it suppose to sound like that?"
"Where are you hiding the bottle?"
"You have to be spraying it!"
"Why is it on Hoosiers?"

Or my favorite, the local tire places getting into my truck trying to back it up only to get out and each time they come to ask me to do it lol. Each time with me telling them it takes a bit of throttle to get it moving.

Also the look of the exhaust shop guy when pulling my truck onto the lift, as I give it more and more throttle with it still not moving. So I goose it with the tires spinning as it goes up the lift. Gotta love it lol

In my new VHO daily:

"Yeah right, you don't have a 6.0 in it..."
"Is it a standard?" Since it barks the hell out of the tires during shifts.

Waiting on the comments I will get when driving the drag truck...

 

Mind you i know diesels can be fast but you gotta love them "ricer" diesel boys

I work a little ways outta town and there are diesels everywhere. Every 16 year old and their grandma have one, literally. So i have the lowest, smallest truck in town and every diesel guy likes to talk **** when they hear and/or see my truck. Always saying that a their chipped and stage 2 injectors diesels will take my truck. Once I tell them all ive done to theyre suddenly more hesitant to race. One day I raced on of the "fastest" disel trucks in town and left it behind pretty bad, now no one even looks at my truck twice lol.

 

so many diesels in my area that act the same way, even my friends talk about how fast their "500hp" duramax is, forgetting that my stock L33 ecsb already has a 2000+ lbs advantage when i yank them from a roll. can't wait to cause some serious butthurt once the build is underway after harvest season.

on a side note i layed a good strip at the gas station today and had a guy ask me whats done to it, i said stock and he told me with a straight face that i should at least have a throttle body spacer
