    Browsing the web tonight I came across this and thought a few of you would enjoy it as well.

    I know we're talking about trucks anyways, but the SRT10 is a heavy azz engine. Not worthy of racing. The new Ford 3.5 EcoBoost is definitely worthy of a strip.

    And smile it's Blacktooth Grin!

    In 03' there wasn't alot of mods. I got into GP's in 05' People were tuning with AFC 2.0 controllers that helped control the air and fuel. Efficient at the time but not near as good as the tuners that are available now. I remember when i went from the AFC 2.0 to the DHP tune and then to a custom tune. It was a heck of a difference. Also in 05' you couldn't touch a set of headers for under $900.00
