    He is still running the stock manifolds and cat pipe... he has pretty much reached the limit of what they can flow

    If he did long tubes, I am sure he would hit his mark.

    I'm home!
    Made it home at 1:15pm today amidst the rain. Ended up staying in Barstow, CA last night as we were wiped out from the progressive drives. Left at 6:30am, stopped for breakfast, then again at Harris Ranch for steaks for dinner (yum), and that's it.

    The truck felt like it lost some power the minute I started filling up with California gas. Didn't go WOT in the rain, but, the throttle response was definitely missing something. 91 octane here is definitely not the same as 91 octane found in New Mexico and Arizona. It took 2 cans of that new STP Jet Fuel Octane Booster to make the motor happy again.

    For those who were interested in oil consumption, it went down...
    I just logged 1769.68 miles since I added oil and lost about 1/4 - 1/3 of a quart. Much better than the 1 quart for 1000 miles first experienced.

    Thanks for all the support everyone!
    Hope my saga was fun to read.
    I have A LOT of cleaning to do this weekend!

    Posted a few more from the trip but, didn't take many. We didn't make many stops except to gas up. I didn't want to remember the gas stations.

    When I get her all shiny and clean I'll post new engine and exterior shots and show the SMC kit I got.
