Bottom line is I'm not on the track although I might make a few runs in the future. Right now here's where I'm at:

1. 62mm SC pulley
2. 100mm tensioner pulley
3. Single NW CAI (Why? Because my tuning shop said he's ran numerous dyno evals and there's no gains with dual CAI that a single can't produce. His words "how much air you think you can stuff into a V6?") Good point. He professes the gains are more with the quality of the tune as opposed to a huge increase single CAI to double CAI.
4. Dyno tune coming shortly after including TCU

Next phase, 125HP wet nitrous set up. I don't race, but having that sleeper will blow some people away. Stock, as is, I had a new Hemi 5.7 Chrysler 300 roll up to a red light next to me shortly after I got the car. Dude was lining up and truth is I got baited into it, and launched on green. He got me off the line but I was three car lengths on him at the end of a local 1/4 mile run and the last look at the speedometer I was moving past 110mph. Backed out there. I got home and the thought came to me "hmmmm....you are a very well known and respected high school teacher of Criminal Justice and Social Studies. How are you going to explain a criminal street racing charge to you school's principal?" So enough street racing. I might run it on the local track now and then in the future, but there's no need for me to go beyond the above.
