Compared on the same truck on the same day I believe it would indeed do much better. This was one run being compared to numerous runs on numerous trucks at numerous tracks.
The reason I mention the rims is because I have the heavy 20s. I wonder what kind of wheels the 13.6 has? I dropped .4 off my quarter by droping 16lbs in tire weight. Do the same for the wheels and that is another chunk off the quarter time. The srock 20s are 48 lbs I believe.
The 13.6 is again 93 non-cali gas. Its rly hard to get apple-to-apple comparisons, unfortunately.
There are tons of factors. Air temp, himidity, altitude, wheel/tire weight, truck weight, launch, Etc. Etc.
When I finish my tune, with comparable wheel weight to those running 17s and I have had more experience at the track.... we shall see.

I have 20s, so what. I ran 13.66. Everyone is just comparing the tunes power. I guess that could be done in your Socal tuning thread. I hope you drop weight and move on up the list.

13.803-13.53= .273. That is a bit more than a whopping tenth. He's only giving you are hard time because you touted the tune so much. The SoCal 93 tune trapped 98 making it like most other 93 tunes. I run full weight and do so knowing my truck is a fatty. When you get into dropping weight and changing rims that doesn't speak to the tunes performance. It just moves you up the ranks. Props for getting the times and posting. I'm ready to see someone run the Livernois v10 tune so it can be praised or bashed.

I correct my "below sea leve"l statement: 635 ft above sea level. In a "valley" so I knew it was low... thought a tad below.

better looking than geno
I was saying, with practice I'd would run probably 13.7s on your truck. Same. Don't get butt hurt. Its just not worth 250 so odd dollars to run the same thing again. More go fast parts out there.

I'm thinking I can get mid 13 @ 100+. My track prep is good and elevation is 18ft. Truck is 2wd, 3.55, 93v2 (maybe v10), o/r downpipe, airaid, lighter wheels. Last time i brought a truck (tuned and intake only silverado) i trapped 96. This truck feels noticebly faster.
Just need a open track night now

I just found 29lb. Forged matt black wheels for 240 each. That cuts ~19 lbs off each wheel! I dropped .4 with only a 16lb drop. So excited...
