Ok guys please help me out on this one.
I'm a 2011 Eco 3.55 4x4 on 17s with 295/70/17 toyo open country m/ts STOCK.
Installed the SCT 87 tune today, can hardly, and feel like I'm kidding myself on being able to feel the diff. Is it the tires????
I'm going to try 93 tune as soon as I burn off this 87.
*truck doesn't feel like a dog or anything, just can't surmise the change.

Raced a 2003 lighting JPL intake SCT tune and smaller pulley. My eco only has SCT tune and AFE stage 2 intake . Won by 2-3 trucks The track was nice enough to let us line up 3 times I took all of them by minimum of 2 trucks . It was street night so we were flagged no times 
I am going to try to get him to post on here we talked for some time. He was stunned that the Eco was even close
and he was being beat by a 4 door lol!!

Looking on here a stock 2001 lighting runs 13.7 his was modded. This makes me think he was in the 13.4 to 13.5 range. At bare minimum
I was in 4 high boost launching ripping him out of the hole and he never gained an inch we went a little past the traps on one of the runs I was doing 110. He said he ran 12.9 a year ago but I call BS... He never gained one inch!! Actually I was gaining like an inch at a time in 4wd.
Man I got to get this to the dyno!!
I ran 14.37 stock. Tune and intake at most on 91 octane gave me 50 -55hp and at most 100 to 110lbft of tq that is no more then 1/2 a second so I'm thinking 13.6 to 13.7 ? At best

I guess I never realized you ran that fast stock geno, my truck never got even close to that and the only real difference is mine is 6.5 bed. That and I had a dual liner and extang fulltilt installed which just adds weight, but I couldnt break 15 flat....I am anxious when it gets back into the 80s I will be headed to the track of these evening for some testing...Awesome news though....for the record though, whenever I have read what a vehicle was supposed to run, those are usually done by professional drivers, and rarely do "real" people get close to those numbers. Im anxious to hear what happens when you can get some times.
