Re: Stock turbo record.. should it count?

What kind of tuning did you do? You mention you tuned each mod, but have said repeatedly that you did no tuning. Not sure I understand. However, I have had good results with a Pitbull chip (nothing remotely comparable to doing my own tuning, though), but if you look at the binary work that they did, there is A LOT left on the table in that chip. I think a custom chip could net you the gains you seek.
I would be interested to see a video/slip of that run. Boggles the mind how you shaved a full second off a perfect stock run with only a chip, high flow intake, exhaust, MSD box, AFPR, and Aux cooler. You even had 10 year old plugs, cap, and rotor? Wow.

I was being sarcastic... stating I do not do any tuning... ha ha..
I am sure there are better chips out there. But why was it so hard to beat my truck all this time? Running ungodly amounts of boost, custom chip tunning alky injection high stall converters, & so on..
As far as a video clip/timeslip,it was not video taped & the time slip is somewhere?
I had about ten people see the runs I made that day.
Yes I had the original spark plugs ,wires & cap & rotor. I changed them not too long ago.
I had a hard time passing smog for some reason here in Ca. So I just decided to put new plugs Cap & rotor, then it passed easy.
The truck was running great... but it did not pass smog check until I changed the previous things, go figure?
There are other ways to make your truck faster , one part being able to cool the intake MAT temps & keep them cool.
Thanks for your interest! & the info.!!!
I am not running a Pitbull chip anymore.
