I'm in the same boat as bud, I do my best to make it there to meet the crew and some of you guys. As far as getting on the dyno, I may have to wait for some more cash flow for a good tune.

Tdrumm... Maybe... Hey, were in jersey are you from? I just realized that I'm the same age as you and pretty much have the same truck. I have been thinking about getting it tuned and maybe installing a cam, I would love to go for a spin in your truck to see how it feels. Have you run it yet? (1/4mile)

I'm originally from Piscataway (New brunswick area, Rutgers) and I now live in Randolph.

I'm in Dumont. Wait till I get the mew mods on in two weeks, and then we'll see how it feels.

I never taken it to the track, and the traffic around here is not really conducive to getting full enjoyment out of the truck. It really needs to be run. Billy and I have toyed with getting a few of us together to hit the track before. It just seems that everytime we mention it, we get busy and before you know it, another month has passed.

Sounds like a plan. A few coworkers and myself go to Island on friday nights throughout the drag season. My coworkers have an 11 second 02 camaro SS and a 11/12 second 87 GN.

We should get together *and run* one night, you can get like 10 runs if you want, can't beat it.

Hey, what kind of MPG do you get with your current setup?

Jeff

According to the DIC, I get 14-15 on my normal day to day driving through the city, and around 20 on the highway with the cruise on 70ish.

Hello gentlemen...I am interested in getting my truck on the dyno and getting a tune for it. Can TTP do custome tunes on this dyno day you are mentioning? Are they any good? I do not want to make the trek if it is not worth it. I am going to be in need of a tune for my truck. I live in PA. and according to mapquest Clifton is about an 1.5 hours from where I live. How far from Island Dragway is it? I have raced there many times and I am some what familar with that area. What kind of money do they get for the dyno work along with custome tune? I would appreciate any info you could give me. I plan on getting my truck to Island this spring. I want to see what she can do on the track since I have done my mods.
Thanks,
John
