It lights up the ditches much better than white/clear, in my opinion. It also looks badass!

I don't know how bright those are going to be, for your usage. We have V8s which are, at least listed, twice as bright as the M5 series.

Shift Firmness:
1-2 @ 6
2-3 & 3-4 @ 6 as well

WOT Shift:
1-2 @ 4700 (was at 4900 and the truck took a full 2 seconds in between shifts, not good)
2-3 @ 4950
3-4 @ 4800

Rev Limiter @ 5300

Speed Limiter @ 125

Timing @ +1.25

WOT Fuel @ +1.75

To advance the timing this much you HAVE to run 91 octane or higher. You can run these settings with 87 octane, but I wouldnt advance timing by more than .50 (half a degree).

You might be right, but the price was right. I drive mostly city, a little country, back roads, so I would assume they'll be better / safer than the stock halogens.

Is there a reason to set the rev limiter at 5300rpm when your highest shift point is set to 4950 ? Also does anyone know what the stock shift firmness setting is?

This is by far my favorite MOD. Power, tourque and MPG have all gone up significantly. The truck sounds quieter and idles much better especially on cold starts. I also love how I can change the color. The blue matches my stereo and led light bar switches perfectly. Now I just need to convert my dash and ac switches to blue led's. My only issue is the dash pod doesn't match for crap. Might try painting it. Anyone know which Krylon fusion matches the dark grey on the dash?
