HAHA he's got a 6.0 Leaker. The longer he runs that 6.0 boosted with a handheld for HP, the more likely he will have lots of injector and headgasket issue's. Those 6.0's are JUNK! None of them can handle the 200hp a tuner can throw at them. Hell, they barely make it on their own!
Race him in hopes he'll blow something up. It's not a question IF, but a question WHEN! They are all junk!
I agree with not going with 4:10's. You've got 35's. Get 4:56's. The 4:56's w/35's will be like running 4;10's on a 33" tire/3:92 combo. Going 35" and 4:10 will make your gears like stock from before with a 33" tire. The Rams SUCK off the line so why not aid that with some 4:56's

My 07 is stock. What gears are on it now? How easy is it to change them out?
A douche I work with has a 08(?) Silverado, nothing fancy, and swears his programmer gives him an extra 110hp. WTF?! Everyone knows he's full of crap and tries to one-up everyone. I'd like to put him in his place but I really don't have too much experience "racing" trucks. If it were bikes then I know I'd be able to hand it to him.

lifted trucks do not go faster, even with all the mods, chips and tunners performance is on par with a stock, non lifted truck, chip out and mod a stock truck and than you have something quicker than oem.
Gas engines have to pull higher RPMs to to even began competeing with a diesel engine, in the short haul, your looking at Ford tail lights all the way down the high way.
Its not a qusetion of hemi vers powerstroke, but who has the most money to make thier toy's go faster.
I'm all for improving performance, but once you start abusing your rig to compete in a pissing contest, well, you may lose your (edited) in the process ...
