Im running 15.09@92.7 with just a cam, headers, gears, and a Tune...

I figured with a supercharger you should be well into the high 13's at the least a 14.1-14.3..

I think you need to look into your tune....

Is your truck a 2wd? Your weight difference helps for sure also. I would think with a proper tune I could drop some time, but I dont expect to be in the mid 13's at all, if high 13's maybe. I think if I went with 4.10's, cam, LT's, and a good dyno tune I could hit a mid 13. I guess I was being realistic. A lot of good times you see on here are RCSB or 2wd trucks, a 4wd sucks power even if it isnt engaged just from haveing to turn all that weight from the t-case and axles. Even with a dead on tune I would be happy with a mid 14. As far as the weight goes, it was on the scale at RT66, and I have never known it to be off. Also when I stepped out of the truck it had my weight right, so it cant be that far off. If anything I think it may be light, I figured I added more weight than that since the last time I weighed it, but that was also a different scale.
Even the way it sits now it dropped almost 2 seconds from what it ran w/o the supercharger, so it cant be all that bad.

to me it just seems that if you had a good tune to go along with your 10psi you would be able to get a high 13 sec run.

The tune was PCM for less BTW. I cant say I am dissapointed really. I cant imagine it is easy to tune a FI truck through the mail. I wanted to get the thing back on the road quickly though since it is my daily driver. I am sure it is a pretty safe tune also.

Try launching in Auto 4wd, if you have it. I did my first runs with the Radix last night, too. 14.16 twice was my best. I thought I could get in the high 13's with the stock tune from Magnuson, but right now, I'm traction limited. I don't have my posi in, yet. I left it auto 4wd, and it seemed to help greatly in the traction dept. 60' times went from 2.40 down to 2.12, which makes me happy. I'd really like to be in the 1.90-2.00 range, eventually. After the baseline runs, I put in the tune I got from Wait4 Me Performance. Actually, I switched whole pcm's. After some learning, I hope to test at IRP during the Power Tour.
