Get rid of the 35's and the lift and you probably wont have that problem. It's a truck, not a sports car.

Come on guys your gonna rip on me for wanting a fast truck? Think about turbo cummins. It's not at all unreasonable to have a fast truck. Thanks for the info though on those turbos, ill check those out.
Dude just look at a ProCharger, There great. Thats all you would ever want.

Well, the others are right and really aren't ragging on you. They are just too lazy to type why you need to be doing what they are telling you.
You'll probably find that truck is a dog if you're running 35" tires and a lift with factory gears.
You have a few options on what to do at this point, but in order to really do it right,
consider the following:
1. Tuning solution- You're lucky- SCT is open platform, so custom tunes are avaliable and that's what you need.
2. You'll more than likely need higher fueling injectors
3. If you plan on turning large amounts of boost, a complete motor rebuild with forged components is in order.
4. Super Chargers are going to be the easiest by far, but you can't crank them up as high, and it's commonly debated that a blown truck starts to hinder itself at certain RPM ranges (Varies from setup to setup). Never forget, you'll always have belt slip to deal with.
5. No one makes a true bolt on kit for these trucks anymore. I recall KRC doing one back in July, but I haven't been able to find it in awhile.
STS is the company that's going to get my bidness again when I decide if I'm going to boost my next truck or not. They have excellent customer service, and are more than patient with noobs when they have questions.

boost is always awsome, but i think the only way to go would be a custom in bay turbo setup, superchargers are all right but they take power to make power, and hit a limlt very fast, where a turbo is basically free HP, and with the correct setup a turbo will build power low and fast just like a supercharger, however i am not completely sold on the down stream turbos, one of the main keys to a properly funtioning turbo is heat, the the more you cool the exhaust gases, the more you will loose from the turbo, i know they work but an in bay would be a lot better, and wouldnt have to deal with all that sump system on the down stream setup.
