Phillip has a K&N drop in filter and a Borla exhaust and he thinks the exhaust was worth about a tenth from his last outing. They were very close races as you can see from the time slips and that's what made them such a blast.
I am hooking great with the snow tires on the strip, floor it at 2/3 speed off the line and after a small chirp, she's off.
The new 2.5" Y pipe is the perfect size for street tires, if you want good consistent launches when flooring it off the line. I don't have to pay attention to anything but the tree right now and I was killing it tonight. If I can keep getting consistent runs out of it I may win some bracket races this year.
I just don't get why I'm not running quicker at the top end though other than the intake manifold or tuning. Time will tell but I am very pleased with how it launches and runs consistency wise, it's just a great setup for street tires because it's so easy to launch now, no more easing into the pedal and praying I hook, lol.

All the Tundra had was exhaust and a different filter?If so,that thing is flying.
