Fooled the BCM into thinking I had shorter tires to gain some top end speed. It worked!





More to come!

That's crazy!

My company has a fleet of F150s for the technicians that are in the field, mostly regular cab long beds. I think 2017-ish and newer. Some look brand new, so they are getting current models now. I drove one when I just started as part of the safe driving program. I guess they have the base V6 3.5 engine?

I'm going to have to show the guys that video!

I want to know what a new rcsb gmc base model with the turbo max does. They can be tuned to make make more hp and torque than a 6.2 and torque is 100 more tire than a 6.2. That should move one right on out as well.

I have a SCT X4 delivering tomorrow and I’m going to immediately raise the speed limiter to probably 125 mph. No real need to go any faster until I upgrade the driveshaft. We’ll find out together how far it’ll go on the stock tune as is. Also delivering tomorrow is a Magnaflow muffler and I’ll try to get that installed by the weekend.

Working 8 days a week is tough.

Furthermore, I’ve had a GT350 intake modified to fit the Gen 4 heads and it should come in sometime next week. I’ve also been sitting on an IHC 3/5 lowering kit and a set of KellTrac street/strip DA Viking shocks delivered today.



Getting into the 12’s on the stock tune was fun but let the march to the 11’s begin!
