Ok, I dont want to sound like a complainer... i'm just looking for constructive comments here.

2000 v6 4x4
Mods include:
homebrew Intake
180 tsat
jet II chip
headers
1.7RRs
single in, dual out exaust (may/should be swtiching to single out)
stock v8 tb

I actually think the truck is slower!! I'm beat by most things now! Yes, including minivans!!!

I need a new clutch, could i be loosing that much power from a bad clutch?
My tires are balding, but that should only effect the take off.

Any Ideas?

if the clutch is slipping you will notice it and yes it will cause the truck to not go anywhere.

tires with low tread will actually give you more traction on dry pavement.

I have more/equal amount of mods, but different ones that wont add up the the power you should have. I have noticalbe more power. A bad clutch can cause problems with performance. Try relocating your iat, it tends to make it more responsive. Cost like 1-3 bux, and about an hour to do.
