Hahaha nahh, keep in mind 35's don't help anything. A lot of it is from where me and a couple of my buddies went out and raised hell drifting around some fields the other night. That was a whole lot of wot and a whole my of fun! I wish I would have had a gopro to video it with. The truck sounded insane! I do also have quite the lead foot though.

Just a little update on the truck for anyone who cares lol. I've now got a little over 11,000 miles on the blower and the truck is still running fantastic! Truck just rolled over to 26,000 miles today actually. I went ahead and ordered some new plugs today from [MENTION=142781]Stage3Motorsports[/MENTION]. Went with the same NGK 6510 Iridium IX plugs that I went with last time. Probably get those put in this weekend if the weather permits.
Next big thing/decision I've got to make is what I am going to do about new tires. I absolutely love the look of the 35" Nitto Trails that are on the truck, but I would really like to drop down to something smaller and lighter to complement the performance of the truck. Thinking about dropping down to something like a 305/55/R20 Nitto Terra Grappler. Doing so I would be going down over 2" per tire while gaining some width and loosing over 30lbs per tire which would probably make a huge difference. Also, it would be nice to have a tire that is rated for the higher speeds. The 35" mud tires get pretty sketchy with anything over 100.
After I get that all figured out, my next plan is to switch up my exhaust setup. I really want to get my hands on a set of Stainless Works headers if I can make myself save up the money for them and the full Stainless Works performance connect exhaust to match.

I was wondering if you were going to change anything. You know race season is coming. Lol.

The tires are a must as the ones on the truck are getting bald. So that is happening for sure, I've just got to decide exactly what to go with.Speaking of racing, that reminds me, I've got a video of me racing a supercharged Titan that I need to post up.

Brady I think i'd come down one aspect ratio to a 295/60/20. They're typically a little lighter than the 305/55/20 in most tires (there will always be some exception). 295/60/20 Toyo OC AT2 comes to mind as it's their "Extreme" tread in that size...deeper lugs...more sidewall biters.
