not sure if it's something chocking the exhaust side of it {stock manifolds} or the sheer weight of the 1ton truck with a flat bed on it. i kept the tune very mild. max of 17 degree's of timing. 12.2 afr at wot. stock trans tables. could have gotten more timing our of it, but didn't feel the need to push it per request. once i get some more free time i want to go back and see if i can get some low end out of it.

I have mid length headers settin around. They need coated and I don't have the money right now.
I'm really fighting my self not to put the bottle on it. Don't think my dad would like it.

An update, I'm having a problem with the cam sensor reading. I called Crane, waiting for a call back. So far Crane has had great customer service.
Power in lower RPM is defiantly down but pulls great up top.

Interesting....think they machined the timing chain wrong for the cam pick up? that chain looks nice I am thinking of getting one if I change cams. Is it throwing a code?

i have an idea that doesn't involve nitrous to get the bottom end back.

If it was my truck, it would have nitrous to hold me over till the turbo went on. But my dad won't go for it. Lol

Yep it's crane timing set
