Never tested it, I gotta buy that t20torx. I'm almost certain I'm going 190/75s warren has good pricing and whatever he offers military on top of that. That being said I don't think I'm going to waste my time putting a big wheel in the stocker. I'll just run the stocker hard then go s366 most likely. Blocks will be on tomorrow. Hopefully the intake shows up.

Ifk about the 420's yet as I Could Not get the brand new Discount tire store to even Mount an balance them on My 20x12" Fuel Nutz wheels.. Long story short i sittin here with my truk loaded Down with wheels an tires an can't get them on! Bs!!

I even tried just dropping them off an picking them back up tomorrow, but they still said No because they new what they were goin on and bla blahh.. Lol but yeah I'm betting they Are Horriable in the snow, they look like a road race tire .. Rightnow Kinda makes me think about just lifting the truck back up an running the 35"x14" Fuel off-road tires that are On the wheels!! Lol

My 420s are great in the snow! Lol better than the cooper STTs that were on my truck. They get a bad wrap for snow driving but they have good tread depth.. They are fine as long as you don't drive like a jackass lol. Truck looks sick though swinky! We'll have to meet up and mess around at the track next time I come home, if you're home as well. Maybe we can get RedRice to tag along.

oke:

Thanks man. Sounds good to me. It will probably be around summer time I'm down to go to the track whenever I'm home.

Truck looks great and sounds like it's running pretty good for you! I would suggest going with a different builder for your injectors, I've seen a lot of people and have experience with improperly built injectors that don't hold ICP. You will probably gain a little more power but will NEVER be able to get the full capability of the injector without doing a HPO upgrade (dual pumps, or a modified pump)... Which with a properly built 190cc injector you should be able to maintain full ICP with a stock pump.

Good luck with whichever route you choose, but I would never cheap out on injectors, learn from my mistakes LOL.

He has an 03... I'm sure that pump will keep up just fine with a warren 190.

I just looked back swinky, to answer your question, yeah mine are warrens injectors too .. I'm kinda thinking about upgrading tho, idk if the 30% nozzles are Enough

what suspension setup?

STR8LINE · Jan 11, 2014

It is lowered about 1.5" .. Cut springs in front for now, wanted to try that before buying 5.4 springs .. Flipped in rear. Also has Bilstein all way around

Here is a pic with stick wheels
