This sounds like a happy customer!
Like I said, I got tired of screwing with it. Yes, I am happy, but I would be much happier if I could see the claims by Magnuson on paper. I never have, except for AS&M numbers. Very interesting.

Magnuson certainly did some work on my truck, but on their 'recalibrated' dyno. When all was said and done, they told me, "Your truck looks almost exactly like all the other 5.3L Vortecs in our database...", which is interesting, to say the least, since they are measuring ALL vehicles on an out-of-cal dyno. Isn't that interesting?

Still haven't addressed the issues of the absence of your dyno sheets, Magnuson's interesting calibration methods, or the lack of a proliferation of available dyno sheets on this site or elsewhere the web. Especially since there are "1000's of satisfied Radix customers..."

You know I was told people in this forum werent like the other forums. I came in here and merely said my truck was built to run in the 12s. I never said it actually ran 12s. I have also said I didnt build it to run at the track, I built it to have fun driving daily and to show with. I enjoy driving my truck and all of that. Maybe one day when I get sick of airbags, I will rip them out and rebuild the truck for track, but for now I am totally happy with what I have. I am not e-thugging anyone and I never said my truck was faster than anyones. Once again, all I stated was that my truck WAS BUILT TO RUN 12's. My truck was also built to lay frame on 22s and to look good. In my opinion, so far my truck has accomplished what it was built for.

Well you can lay 22's but you cant hit 12s , so whoever "built" it for that didnt do their job

Intro, "to each his own" i say. If you are happy with your truck, thats all that matters. Do you have any pics of your truck? I had thought about baggs, and a ladder bar setup, but i wasnt sure about the added weight and if it would slow me down.

Its not important to me to hit 12s. I just went a different direction with it, thats all. I think that you are getting caught up in the wrong details at this point. I already said everything was hypothetical, I never said my truck DID run 12s and I thought everyone had already accepted that. I will continue to enjoy driving my truck knowing ill never hit those magical 12s.

c3c5, when are you going to try again? i think i will be at the track again something like friday the 7th or whatever date that is, i have a ways to go to see a 10sec 1/4 but i might try anyways.

and whatever happend to blacksheep? i thought he was going to make a run at it last weekend? when is he going to go for it? we could have 3 trucks hit the 10's all in may, might have to start looking at the top lightning guys prety soon and see how they are doing. last i saw they had some guys in the mid 10's but that has probably changed by now.

then there is gmcski, i dont think he has talked much about 10's but if i can get close i know he can do it. built motor and less weight with the same turbo set up as me, that is if the kit ever shows.
