Depressed about my 3.0
So, everyone I know says my truck is slow and I shouldn't have bought a 3.0 and should've gone for the 4.0 which I guess is about a 15. second drag time in a 1/4 mile... I was wondering if ya'll knew something I could do to make my truck a little bit better...Cause I'll face it, I don't know jack sh*it of what goes on with my ranger haha! (silly girl ) All I know is I am NOT running nitrous in it...I need this truck to last me atleast 5 more years lol. Or maybe instead of making it like a track truck, possibly some kind of offroad looking, or just street truck...SOMETHING! ANYTHING!
Gimme some ideas guys & gals. If there's hope at all for my little 3.0 :-\

IMO it depends on what you want to do. If you want to 4 wheel it, build it up. If you want it fast, I'm no help there, but build it to make it fast.

If your pipe tubing size after the muffler is 3" you need to get that changed..
3" is way too big for a naturally aspirated 3.0. I would get the tailpie(s) changed to 2.25".
You should notice a decent increase in a power gain due to more back pressure over the current 3" diameter (better low-end acceleration)
