Ok here's the deal, I have ran the truck 8 times before tonight, it ran between 9.97 and 10.06 in the 1/8th. It has been very consistent. I did the throttle body bypass, egr trim, and cut the cats out. I get to the track, sit in line for about 10 minutes, pull in the lanes, and pretty much pull straight out on the track, I ran a 9.86, pulled straight around, and ran a 9.86 again. Im thinking ok I gained a .10, this was at about 85 degrees, and very high humidity. I waited about an hour and a half, to let it cool down, thinking I might get a little quicker, WRONG, this time it ran a 10.00, I was pissed, so I went right back around and this time ran a 9.95. I just don't understand why, I ran a quicker time, in the heat. Anyway, I have to get a tune, the Hypertech is outta here. I don't know what I am going to do, my wife said if I spend any more money on this truck she is going to shoot me. Oh well, I guess I will have to take the bullets out

What were your 60' times? Did the 10.00 run have a higher time? What was the mph? Maybe you spun a little after letting it cool down, it is not even a full tenth, so I dont know why you are being skeptical. Maybe the best it will go is a 9.86, it wont do it every time.

You are talking about covering a distance of 660' in a 4500lb vehicle with times varying only 5-14 HUNDRETHS of a second and worrying about "consistancy" ??? There are about 10,000 variables which could have caused this minor discrepancy. Don't worry, be happy.
P.S. Congrats on the new best!
