You have a stock truck? Go out and put your foot to the floor see where it stops then report back!

If it's warmed up I don't feel bad doing it and stock it is 3500 rpms with my predator is 3650. It is a lot easier on it sitting there with no load as compared to pulling with boost in the mix.

Yeah, like he says stock is 3500 rpm's. With stock fueling you wont be able to make power over about 2900rpms.
With some fuel boxes or whatever you might be able to hang power into the 3300-3500 area.
If you go out and put your foot to the floor with a warm engine you'll feel it start to miss at 3500 rpm...its basically the ecm cutting fuel back so the engine does not keep accelerating (revving).

To the other posters above: Yeah the foot is to the floor when coming off the in all the videos in my signature (every time I pull).
I can generate about 3600-3700rpm when standing on the pedal with no load. When I do start to load the engine with the clutch it brings it down into the 3400-3500 area.

I will say its a heck of a rush.
