This is a SSI throwdown thread. Go troll somewhere else.

Caliber of truck? What are you talking about? You bought a few basic catalog parts and a tuner and threw them on a truck, big deal. The only reason you are the self proclaimed fastest 2wd, lowered, tuned ecoboost truck on the F150 forum is that most people here who have a clue have better things to do.

Hey everybody look it's Jcain posting his pearls of wisdom again!!

This thread was ridiculous from the start but you just make me laugh at the posts you make (not complementing u) just to stoke the fire.

Do you ever post anything in any thread that isn't some monotoned smart a** reply? Smells like a bearded sh** disturber to me.

It's funny you say that considering your an automotive engineer, you'd think testing your machine would be fun for you. But I guess you have better things to do. Obviously people like trucks that go fast or they're wouldn't be anyone
Tuning them.

Who else doesn't buy catalog parts even for their 10 sec cars to make them go fast and then tune with them to get the max potential? Not everyone can afford one off parts for any rig including trucks. Going fast is fun, truck or car.

Well I would have to respectfully disagree about shifting out if 4wd under a load, my 2012 lariat would do it all the time, nobody believed me so I videoed it. My 2013 fx4 won't do it.

Right now I'm working on a new programmable ignition for my drag sled (snowmobile). It is turbocharged as well, but covers the 1/8 mile in a hair over 5 seconds at over 120 mph. It requires actual tuning (chassis, ignition, fuel, clutching) every weekend we run it. It's personal preference, obviously, but I consider that a better thing to be doing.

These trucks aren't really fast, nor is buying a pre-loaded programmer and plugging it into the OBDII port "tuning", yet this setxathlete guy seems to think he is Tony Schumacher.

All of our lights go out, but its still in 4wd. It'd be rather a rough shift out of 4wd under load.

I try not to.

I understand what your saying, but that second gear scratch is not all 4 tires. If you watch the tach I'm not launching in 2wd either other wise I would be burning the tires off. It would shift out smooth as silk. I would put it in 4wd hi and shift to 2wd, i don't know if its because it has the auto system or what. That's why I've kinda believed the Livernois run because they had a lariat too that made that run, That would explain the good time and trap. i could feel it shift out every time but was smooth.

So how can you say taking a mid 14 second truck and making it a mid to low 13 second truck not "tuning". To me your taking a shot at shawn saying he's not doing anything special. I guarentee you couldnt do what he does. I agree its not rave car fast but making a 6000 pound truck run with some camaros and mustangs is quite an accomplishment. And for the record you were all about your truck back when you were the top. I suggest you stay away from anything ssi related because your just butthurt.
