Default Livernois 87 tune is a beast!

Just playing around on a closed private airstrip doing some testing.

I was shocked to see/feel how well the Livernois 87 performance tune performed? I'm using a Bully Dog tuner for testing stats (all it's good for because the tunes don't work well!) and here is a couple of snap shots. I'm seeing 14-15psi of boost but man it rocks. Yes the Bully Dog testing is not perfect but has been verified to be close at the track. The 60' times are normally 2 tenths quicker at the track because the roll out.

Anybody have any time tickets for the 87 tune? Guessing not many guys run the 87 tune on track day!

Video of my chum from the weekend running the Livernois 87 tune at the track. Only running 1/8 mile due to track conditions.

Yes good crisp fall air seems to help these trucks a lot.

0-60 in 5.1? Very nice.

How do these tuners affect gas mileage?

0-60 is where these trucks shine! With the Livernois tunes the boost rises very fast.

Got fantastic mileage last trip from camp, averaged 24.9pmg(US) for 150mile trip with the 87 tune running around 60-65mph. Must have had some help from wind but still great. All the Livernois tunes seem to increase mileage a bit.

That's about equivalent to 13.65 @ 97.x. Not bad at all.

What rear end do you have? Been considering a tuner myself...
