I have pushed nothing. But maybe if you say it enough times it will become true though.

Stop playing games and mis-quoting me. That is not what I said.

Its been fun and all playing 4th grader with you guys (not all of you) for the past few days. But I gotta roll.

I'll make this REAL EASY on all you that want nothing more than to argue and measure dicks. I'll get my truck on a different dyno and run it, maybe two. Then at some point soon I will break some time off and run the truck down the strip.

My predictions:

Other dyno's show bigger numbers than the one the current graphs are from. The dyno that testing was done on is known for being very pessimistic.

The truck will post a pretty good 1/4mi time, probably not the fastest though. I'm lugging around a lot of wheel/tire.

Until then feel free to keep arguing about nothing.

Hey, don't worry about it even a little! This is always how these threads go, especially when tuning is involved. Lots of guys have bus loads of money invested in their trucks, and don't want to think there may be 3 more hp somewhere else. It gets worse when Livernois is involved, because they paid the most, and until recently, lagged behind in the power dept. So, you gave us another option, and did it correctly. Dropped off the truck at a reputable tuner, they dyno tuned the truck (no canned tune), got great results, and you shared with us. That is exactly why I bother to sift through the junk size pissing matches to participate in this forum. I would have never found MPT without this place, and would never have figured out many things I have done to my truck without thousands of trial and error. I appreciate ALL the ideas on here, and its a shame that the guys with the most knowledge jcain, and others have to "steamroll" others to make their points. Lastly, the most power does not make the best times. Livernois makes tons of 1/4 runs on the same track, and that with driving skill makes the fastest times! All that being said, if they would make a tune for the SCT, I would be 1st in line to buy it based on the real world times! They obviously, are a complete shop, with a ton of experience with these engines.

no, it was the ones that always question anything they haven't seen yet. You are new, so I'll let you observe for awhile.

I would be the first to say those numbers are great, but if someone questions it, and the response is that.......

Opps, I need to keep observing, sorry.
