Default 4.8l/w slow 60 fts.

Last time I was at the track my best 60ft was a 2.42 with consistant 2.43's. 15.9@86mph Truck is a 06' W/T RCSB 4.8/auto with 4.10's and a tune. From what I've seen most guys stock are running mid-15's why does mine seem so slow?

Thanks,

Chris

Bad weather? Whats the weight on your truck?

Yes mind went 15.4@89-90mph stock as an average. 2.3 60's.

Witht the tune, K&N air filter, muffler and some weight reduction it went 14.78@92.8mph 2.26 60'

I'd say your truck is heavy, you had a bad density altitude and possibly the tune isnt right? You're MPH is way down if all conditions were good.

I would say the tune isn't right. It should be running those times with out those mods.

The A/F is Perfect and I do mean absolutely flat/perfect all the way across.TQ management is set at zero. Shifts are 'firm' and shift points are around 5,800-6K.

How much tq management do the 06's have? Does it have more during break-in like some might think?
