Gryphon came in today!

Well I got my Gryphon in today, gonna throw it on and see how she works! Now just gotta wait for custom tunes to see how it really wakes up the truck.

Ha! You credit me with too much! :o

Like Bluejay though, I would not want to give up my custom tunes. As far as I'm concerned, they made the truck do what I wanted it to do.

I'm a solid believer in custom tuning by a reputable tuner!

All I have to say is WOW!!! Cant wait to see what custom tunes are gonna do. But one thing I noticed today when I got to work was that when I got there was a smell like when your breaking something in, hope that makes sense, but I didnt really push the truck or anything hard. Its not the exhaust cause I had that done a couple of weeks ago and the smell went away in a couple days. Is it just me or something that anybody else noticed??

Was it possibly the "new electronics" smell? You don't say where you smelled it - inside or outside the cab? If inside, I'd suspect it's just the normal "boiling off" of solvents in the Gryphon due to the internal temperatures of components when being powered for the first time. If it was outside though, I wouldn't have any idea.
