Out of boost I would expect it to be a pig with 10 deg timing and 20's. My 6.0 wasn't quick out of the hole with 10 deg timing and 20's. I had 4.10's and had the converter tightened to 24-2500. In some boost though...different story lol. Its a process but you'll get there. Better to start conservatively than lose your motor. I lost two due to the tune.

Don't get discouraged yet. FI tuning isnt just something that can get finished in a couple hours. Better to play it safe than to have the tuner through the "oh ****" tune in there before you or the vehicle are ready for it.

Well i looked at my tune and there are some areas where TM is still active.and just to be doing it i it a dirt road on the way home and YEP cant even make them spin on dirt, even if i hold the brake. just revs to 1500 rpm and holds there. and when i punch it, it doesnt do anything till 3000 then starts to pull.

Edit: it says the file exceeds the max file size. so if anyone wants to seriously look at the tune and see whats up and can give me some advice send me an email addy.

Tune is very conservative. With my on3 I made prolly around 600rwhp and trapped 125 with it. On 14 psi and 16* of timing. Tell him to set it to 12psi and 14* of timing and you will be well over 400 rwhp

It sounds like you are using vengeance racing.... sounds exactly like you are. I noticed you are in Georgia... if that is the case you need to find another tuner. My truck ran awful by the time Mike got done with it. I went to Birmingham and ended up making 530 hp and 575 ft lbs of torque in second gear at 12 lbs of boost with a 70mm. Stock bottom end 4.8.

Would the truck spin out before the turbo was added and tuned?? It should light them up in the dirt bone stock, that sounds retarded
