Very much so. Just need some dry streets now. Or dry streets that are not 0 degree pavement.

Gotta run some errands and will swing through the shop here little bit Roger. Got the fuel pressure gauge plugged in now and got the lights installed in them, just need to get some wire loom for under the hood, black zip ties and run a few hoses a different way and I should be complete. Oh and I got some silver spray paint that is almost a dead on match with the exterior that I am going to spray the engine cover and few other pieces under the hood.........wonder how long it will take for them to get dirty.
Oh one more quick story. Was out looking at the Northern Lights last night with the wife and went to pull off to the side of the road on a back road to stop and take pictures. Well what I thought was solid snow was actually just a spot over a pretty good drop off going down into the ditch that a tractor dropped his blade and smoothed out but that was it. Needless to say the whole right side was sucked in pretty good and thought for sure I was going to need a pull.
Threw it in 4x4 backed up and went forward a couple times and then let her rip. Snow flying, tires screaming and the Procharger sounded like it's ready to take lift if I was to open my hood up for it I powered my way right out of the ditch.
This is why I own a 4x4. Can play in 2wd but when I need the traction I just have to push a button

Congrads on making a plan and exceeding your expectaions,kudos to both you AK'rs
Did you have a tune that came with it or start from what you already had? Did it take much time to get the tune to this point? and Rogg what is you impression of this FI vs a magnacharger for this application?

The D1SC's are all "tuner kits", and therefore do not come with tunes. Gotta start from scratch.
The P1SC kits do come with tunes. D1 obviously has alot more "headroom", and IMHO is a better choice for the 6.2. I've seen P1SC's maxed out on stock 6.0's.

Thanks! Ya I have always been interested in the FI world and never thought I would go down that road but am thrilled I did. It is a completely different truck now and I can't wait for some better roads and really can't wait for the track to open up.
I haven't really found anyone that want's to play yet but I have shocked the hell out of a few people when cruising along at 45MPH on some main streets and I just lay into it and lay a couple nice black marks up the road. Really can't wait for some of the little imports with the fart pipes to pull up along me at a stop light

I planned to go out to the garage tonight and clean up the wires with some wire loom i bought today but ended up relaxing and watching a movie, will tear into it tomorrow and start painting some parts.

Pic of all the gauges lit up and working. Still undecided if I want to paint the pillar mount the same tan color as the other one or paint the other stock pillar black to match the drivers side..

ya actually trying to figure out what tires I want to try for the summer months. Not really wanting to go up 20's or anything, probably keep the stock 17's and just get them powder coated.

I don't know how the roads are up that way during the Summer months, but I've just about decided that Nitto makes some of the best street tires, anything short of radials. I'd take a look at some.

Dyno or track? Track won't be open for a few more months. Dyno numbers I might go and find out someday but for now it runs great and Roger did a kick *** job tuning it on the streets. We will fine tune it and do some more tweaking once we get some tracks days in her.
