If you put a bunch of racing stickers each one is like 3 or 5 horsepower, that is what I see on the civics anyways, next time I drive by my local high school I can ask if they have any extra stickers and get the exact dyno specs for each sticker, can also see about methodic placement.. Seriously though, do the cam, and all the bolt ons and see what you can run then go from there.

as a reality check
keep in mind that a
2005 Ram SRT10
doesn't go 13.9
but is slower at 14.2
in the quarter mile.

To go 13.9 your truck will get the most gain from some serious lightening efforts.....here keep in mind that the SRT10 tested weighed 5600 lbs.

Is a pickup truck a racer?
Shouldn't people who want to go fast first do it on motorcycles?

Spend the extra 4k and buy an STS Turbo kit with the 7lbs+ of boost. You should lower your time by quite a bit considering you'll be pushing around 425hp+ at your rear wheels.. Not sure ifit would be enough to get you in the 13's but it will be damn close if it isn'tthough.

Is anything a racer? Ill run a golf cart down the track if i wanted to.I have 1986 Monte SS with a 383 stroker... that runs 11.8on drag radials...i drive that to the grocery store and my gf drives it to the mall.If i want my truck to run a 13.9 thats my goal....and ill do whatever i have to do to get it there. I was asking for advise not a reality check. I'm well aware its not a easy task thats why i asked this in the forums.....so please so use better judgement on what you say or stick to the topic.

or a flux capacitor.....
I think DeWalt nailed it with the FC.

Since the Flux Capacitor kicks in at 88 miles per hour and your top speed was 89 it should drop your time to exactly 13.8999!
