Anybody catch the article about the LSS Silverado truck with the STS turbo system in Sport Truck Magazine? Here are the numbers that the truck put down.

Stock Truck @ 4500ft
0-60 = 10.29
1/4 = 17.22@89

STS Turbo @ 4500ft
0-60 = 6.7
1/4 = 14.74@96.65

Those #s don't look right.

17.2 but at 89mph?? Is this a regular cab short bed because I don't think our trucks run 89mph stock otherwise, especially at 4500ft.

I live at 5000 feet and my truck ran about 17.0 at 80mph stock. Stock SS's run about 82 mph. I think 89mph is way high. It must be a typo.

The truck is a 2wd ECSB w/ 5.3 + 20x9.5 wheels & 295/40R20 tires. The track time with the turbo was with 6lbs of boost. The article doesn't say where or what track they tested the truck at.
