Nope, just flatter. 5star's dyno actually shows less peak tq and higher HP...but both Tq and Hp are noticeably flatter.

Geoff at Full_Race said that the 13's turbos have more power potential. So that's good for me, bad for you... just kidding.

So far I haven't seen any 1/4 mile times either so I guess I will have to get to the track in July (maybe August) and see if I can be the 1st.

Holy crapoli, you ain't kidding there bud! I think I about myself unloading my Fuel wheels with the Toyos on them. Did some 0-60's tonight only managed a 6.4 best so I lost .7 from my previous best with the MPT tune.
After reading how much more restrictive the '13 I/C is I may actually purchase one as I think it will show better gains than what Geno's truck did. Then downpipes and meth, hopefully by then we'll have some more reviews of this tune and maybe I'll give it a try.

Yeah, CAC does seem like a must have mod for the 13's. However I know that will never get by Ford for warranty repairs, lol. I have been thinking since it's more restrictive, maybe I should remove the shroud??

I guess if I get "condensation issues" I could just put the shroud back on...

I can't wait to Lance run some times with this new tune. And then we can run some with Torrie's new calibration.

Thoughts??

I'm hoping I don't have to take the truck in for any motor/drive train related issues. I'm waiting on the Wagner IC since its stockish location and I'm hoping would be easier to remount the stock cooler IF I needed to actually take it in for anything.
I'm game to see what we can run with the different tunes, now I'm wishing I would have kept the stockers for running the track, I only have 1/8 mile where I'm at and I would guess its probably 3300' elevation but I'm more than willing to compare 1/8 mile times. In any case I just emailed Torrie (and already received)for his updated performance tune so I'll start logging tomorrow and see what we come up with.

Ouch.

I did 5.69 Sec 0-60 with the SoCal 91 tune on 275/65R20's (34")

I cant imagine what I am at now with my stock tires on!!

Yeah, those babies are HEAVY. I think my wife weighs less than those do, lol.
I have no idea what I ran with Torrie's tune before (his full version that is) , but I'm sure it was better than the 5.7 that I got out of the MPT since I was getting 5.8's with the mellow Unleashed tune.

What kind of tires are you running again?
And go run that baby with the stockers on now, you'll probably be in Jeep SRT8 territory.

At 5.5 secs it creates a tunnel vision effect, lol....4.8 would be ridiculous. I've rode in some fast cars including an 11sec mustang running a double shot of 200 on the pill.

The launch in this thing brake boosting to about 2300 in 4hi is just awesome.

If your new tune a 4.8..that's going to be a lot of fun.

BTW, how do you like the traction from the at2's? I am thinking they are my next set of tires in 33". not much extra weight and not a huge increase in overall diameter.

Well, I cant really attest to traction. I didnt spin the tires near as much but that is a combo of more traction over the stockers and the loss of power too. I never took them offroad.

...BTW, if anyone wants to buy my 34's I prefer the power. PM me and maybe I can get you a killer deal (about 1k miles on them ).
