custom tune and exhaust. thats it. I have 60lbs injectors but thats not really a HP adder. I cant shoot my nitroust in 99% of the classes so I dont. I COULD and not say I did but thats cheating. ANYWAY, I love bringing in GAS competition for all the big diesel guys.

back tires around road pressures, fronts bring them down until they sag quite alot, highest hitch height allowed 26" or so....short of a hitch as possible(as in; carry the sled not drag it)...max your truck to the weight class with weight as close to the front as possible or hanging weight if allowed. 4wheel low drive tow haul mode tuned for overdrive shut off WFO! Run 3-4lbs more pressure in the driver front to help drive off the right front more due to the engines torque it loads the right side tire and allows the drivers side to spin with much less bite. adjust your pressures until you have 4 holes at the end of the pull...the side that has no hole, remove air pressure. do NOT go by less air is more bite for this application, for this situation not enough traction will not be gained by a larger foot print to reach your goal. long story short...carry the load up on the truck vs a low hitch and saggn rear and dragging the sled giving the sled the traction vs the truck
