Torque..  of course  .. more the merrier..
Most usage is on the street, no high rpm stuff.

Fuel mileage... well, guess you know the anwser to that..
Let's see... 25mpg would be nice.. assuming I kept my foot out of it.. HAH!

Understand the WOT.   I guess nitrous is most usable at WOT ..
('Till I develop my on progressive controller .. any ideas .. specs?)

Exhaust has headers with 3 1/2" pipes back.

Intake is being modified.  Currently running a K&N filter with 1" chopped 
of the front to clear the fan.  Working on  having a cold air duct run from 
the original '93 filter (also K&N) over to the TPI inlet (no small feat, I 
might add, but hey, neither is a 350 Chevy).

Well, I'll be the first to admit.  Except for the 4 ... 'uh, ok, 6 months 
out of the year, most of it is street driven.  Though, I can't live without 
my 4x4 in the winter!.  The way it is right now, it fits my use in the 
winter (except for the touchy throttle on that pea gravel and white stuff 
they put on our roads here in Idaho.)  The rest of the year is just play 
time.  (As my rear tires are starting to tell me)...
