Sweet spot

I have recently found that my truck "Orca Blanca" is tired of swimming up the road at 60 or 65 MPH. She has raised the bar to 70 to 75 MPH. That V8 turbo seems to be loving every minute of it. I'm now starting to see the "need" for upgrades. The Riffraff intake and 3" downpipe are a great start but I think the cat may fall off soon for starters. Perhaps a cat forward exhaust setup is in order?

PMS a coming! Took you awhile but I knew you would see the light. Reminds me of RRanch when he said a few years back that these motors are just fine stock. A lot of people, including me, told him he didn't know what he was missing. Then he started mods, LOL

Intake exhaust and a good tuner will really liven up these rigs!
