    New guy from New Orleans, La

    Just wanted to introduce myself here I dont have a truck yet but I am contemplating making one of my 2500 6.0 2 wheel drive work trucks into a race/street truck. Tryingh to see what setups to go with, good tuners, turbos, nitrous or both. I have a duramax diesel now with a compound setup and it runs pretty well just want to see what the gasoline side of things are like.

    Welcome to the club!!

    What's wrong with a 3/4 ton race truck? I have an 05' 2500HD stock, and I have dreams of making it a race truck as well. One of the Magnacharger dealers has a 2005 2500HD with about 800+ horsepower, I saw it run down at the Columbus Goodguy's show and it was really impressive. He was the one who inspired me actually!!
