If anyone who knows GM trucks sees this thing they will probably be really confused. 99-02 front clip, HD grille and bumper, 1500 cowl hood, 6 lug wheels, 5" diesel-soot-filled exhaust tip, XM/Onstar antennas, 03+ LT interior in a regular cab

Holy Swirls! If the shop that painted it swirled it that badly, the should never everrrr buff anything else!

And I liked the badges on the door where you had them before paint.

Still around 20. I tried messing with the tune a little bit, increased timing and lowered boost in the cruise areas, and that didn't change anything. I haven't really tried much besides that. I still think that low to mid 20's should be achievable with the right tuning, since there are people in trucks weighing 2000-3000 lbs more than mine that are getting low 20's.
