Just another fun night on our local (lame and short) 1/8th mile track.
8.7 ET, 82mph, 2.0 60 foot
A better track, tires and weight reduction would have help alot!-lol

Keep us updated on how it does!
I ran 14.07 @ 97mph on motor in my '07 double cab sport 2wd & mods were cat delete (all) and DI/DO vortex muffler. It went 13.3@105 mph on 100shot but it would pop rev limiter in all 4 gears down the track :-(
I ended up selling it due to no tuning available for it! But lately have been looking at them again or the new F-150.

I plan to go to the Las Vegas Speedway test n tune on April 19, I'm finally going to see what she does on the 1/4 mile. I'll have some 31.5" MH Drag Slicks by then...
The VB shift kit works well, giving Faster and Firmer shifts. I dont have an over reving issue, but others have with a non modified VB..

Alright, Here it IS.. Turbo Install FINALLY DONE!! Here is the scene, I have two passengers (One is shotgun checking the AFRs and the other is in the back capturing the drive on his cell phone).. total about 6,500lbs on this Crewmax and the Tundra still had some serious pull, shift kit works great, it sounds like a NasCar/NasTruck!-LoL.. Turn up the speakers.. you can still hear the spooling..
The end is hilarious!!.. Track Test is next!!

How's that Turbo holding up? Qtr mile times yet?
I'm considering the TRD SC (because of warranty purposes). Been lurking on the Tundra boards, and msg'd a few of the SC'd & Turbo'd owners. May hold off on the Tundra until I'm satisfied with my Impala though.

I went with the Turbo because it was different, a Bolt on, I can easily remove and sell it if I wanted, it was cheaper, I didn't have any warrantee on my Tundra to worry about to violate and most important...I also beat 3 TRD S/C CM! ..-lol... I'm still tinkering away to boost it up. Its just my Toy/Family hauler and not my DD..
