Thanks
Yeah brother. Come by anytime. I'll be home for another 2 weeks.

15.57 at 90.5 MPH. 60' time: 2.34.
Temp: 82 at sea level.
Full street weight, 3.42 gears, all terrain 32" tires, 1/2 tank of fuel.
Brake stalled at 2600 at the line,tranny in drive, slight wheel spin on take off with a .089 reaction time.
I need some gears badly to get my 60' better, and some lighter smaller wheels and tires.
I think I'm gonna just get some 4.10s and balance my driveshaft.

Not a bad run. I bet those tires are killing you out of the hole...we can trade for my stockers one weekend lol. Do you feel like you should have made more power with the mods you have installed or are you happy with the numbers? I bet increasing your shift point higher than 6200 would help a lot also...just keep at it!

You damn right they seem slow. And no I'm 2 wheel drive. My tuner is getting a call today.
My gears are killing me off the line. I already knew that though. My wheels and tires are not the best for drag racing either. Not making excuses just brainstorming here.
My tuner was being super conservative with my tune also. He left a good bit of torque management in too. I could feel that last night on the 1-2 shift. I'm going to have him do some tweaking and I'll make some more passes.

What was the weather like when you ran that time. There was a stock crew cab 6.2 with the 6 speed running right at 15 seconds at 93 MPH.

I still felt like there is alot left in the tuning. I'm going to have it tweaked some more and if I'm still not happy I'm going somewhere else.

Not sure how you have your transmission programmed but i have the tow/haul mode setup as very responsive has much firmer shifts and TM removed, but I don't like it for eveyday driving so I have the non-tow/haul mode programmed more conservatively. Are you going to raise your shift points as well?
