Some of us like to go fast, clearly you aren't intelligent enough to understand that. How could you be confused about people getting more performance out of a performance truck? I think the guys with the turbo bugs are more fun to be around than the guys wagging a finger at people for making power.
1976 through 1980 I professionally drag raced in the IDBA. So shows how ignorant your guess I'm not intelligent enough to understand speed. I've been down the quarter mile faster than you'll ever get. I'm not confused on anything. I don't understand why you need to make a bomb out of a small displacement engine. If you think 650-800 HP out of a 3.0 liter engine is rational then by all means do it. Oh, and tell me it's going to be reliable too. I'll listen...

Looks like this setup has been running for over a year without turning in to a bomb

Do you want a cookie? You sound like such a boomer, what do you need a 12L pushrod v8 to make 800 horses? Do you go around getting upset about supras, and gtrs pushing 1000+ hp from 6 cylinders? Or do you go out of your way to tell f1 fans that 800hp is too much for a 1.5L? I'm just confused why you went out of your way to complain about it

Your ignorance is unmatched. Because some of us buy cars and trucks that we don't think we have to build the snot out of it to enjoy it. If you did, you bought the wrong vehicle. Your F1 analogy sucks. F1's aren't your daily driver although like some snot nosed kid you probably drive like you're looking for an ambulance. Wannabe hot rod with no experience. Nice.

You're calling me ignorant? Your reading comprehension needs some work, I never said you have to build your truck to enjoy it. YOU went out of your way to look down on people building their truck. Not really a bad analogy either because some people are using them as race trucks, and the point about the gtr and supra still stands. You just want to be upset.

Call me a kid or whatever you want but you're the one showing your ass here

Your ignorance knows no boundary. I questioned the need to buy a new 60K truck and double it's horsepower. Then you started the insults Gomer. I have a new Lariat and very happy with it's power. I questioned why not just buy a bigger truck with 500-700 HP. It has a warranty. Then the name calling started. You didn't have the ability to see any other point.

Cool, you're okay with a slow truck that's fine, still not hard to understand why people want to double their power. Your question is like asking someone why they modded a 50k bmw instead of buying a lambo.

You know just calling someone ignorant over and over again doesn't make it true right? It's painfully obvious you are the ignorant one here.

Just because you can't afford a new engine doesn't mean other people can't. Just because you don't want a fast truck doesn't mean other people agree. Your opinion is not fact. This lack of awareness makes you, by textbook definition, ignorant.

Do you not understand you went to a performance truck thread, under a post about performance mods and called it stupid? Talk about lack of self awareness. You might as well go to a super duty forum and tell them they don't need trucks that big.

You're so upset you posted the same thing twice. I got to you. I couldn't care less what you do. I just pointed out doubling the power will negatively affect the engines life and transmission. Both were not built for that kind of power. Nothing is free and all I did was point out the obvious.

Imagine thinking a bug that sent a reply twice means you got to me. Do you seriously think I could've typed the same exact paragraph twice? Your braincells match your displacement.

So you admit you're being captain obvious? No one said it would be just as reliable as stock. Just admit you're jealous and move on

When are you taking it to the track?
Waiting on my helmet, fire suit and parachutes to come in. Oh and a diaper, not sure if that's for me or the truck.
You need to go back and get in the 7's!
