Question drag race

Has anyone tried this maybe Mike T. If you where to line up two F150's side by side one with superchip and the other without otherwise identical and ran for 1/4 mile how many truck length would the one with the superchip beat the other? I know you would have to try this several times and rotate drivers to get the best results.

Hi K.,

This will usually result in the Superchipped truck being anywhere from 3-5 tenths of a second quicker in their 0-60 & 1/4 mile times. Some people get even better improvements, knocking off as much as 7-8 tenths, but that is above average in my opinion.

A truck "length" will depend on it's wheelbase, as there are 154" wheelbase F-150's available. But as a rough estimate, each tenth of a second represents about one truck length at 90 mph.

The Superchip is basically a 10%-12% power gainer in these vehicles.
