Don't know what your setup is but my truck did this with NO other changes whatsoever, less than 2 weeks later. Kinda blew the old load the turbo theory IMHO.
........................60'.......1/8mi
Before 3.42........2.38......9.55@76.12.....82 deg.

After 4.10..........2.09......8.90@79.91.....89 deg.

I started a thread about this before.
.5 sec in the quarter mile a popular answer.

I just did it.
I wish I had done it a long time ago.
