if the individual giving the advice has a riced out slug of a truck might want to reconsider folowing that advice
if the individual has a truck with minimal mods yes does better on fuel and performance then maybe you should pay attention to him/her/it

when you stick around you'll eventually get to the point where answering the same questions over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over

Here's a novel idea, don't come into the thread if you're annoyed by the question. If you don't want to help him because it's already posted then don't. But don't come **** up his thread with this horse****, makes you look like an ***. Douche.

how about you go back, and re-read this thread as I posted answers / advice that was promptly IGNORED etc (hence my post), and the same question was asked YET AGAIN
P.S. you have earned yourself a spot on my "ignore list", something the OP has failed to do...

I could give two left ********* what list of yours I'm on. Fact is, if you already answered the question, leave it answered. If the OP didn't see it or asked the question again, then thats his business, posting "over and over" again 100's of times wastes everyones time and shows the forum what a self involved asshat you can be.

You have two left *********?? Congratulations!!
Additionally (and along the same vein in point of view that you posted earlier), if you're annoyed by the answer someone gives, why bother with responding. Right? I mean if it's good for one feller, it should be good for the next. Pretty close to the same principle.
As TJ related (in the manner only he can
), it gets tiresome answering the same questions with the same answers over and over and over and over again (well...you get the point), but when the answer is given in the same thread yet ignored, that would make it even more aggravating.I think everybody gets asshurt too easily, and that's one of the things that is disturbingly wrong with lots of things these days. What happened to the days when a feller does something dumb, gets dealt with about it, and takes it on the chin and goes on? We've become a generation of panty waists, and that makes me want to puke. My .02.
Along those lines, everybody here knows TJ is a self-involved asshat...he doesn't have to attempt to further prove his case.
Now, I guarantee TJ will get a laugh out of that instead of getting all asshurt about it and cry to mommy. He can take it. I promise. And 'wasting everyone's time'? No way! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it! Let's not take ourselves so dadburned seriously fellers. We're just talking about trucks here. Sheesh...

Dewser, you are correct; I chimed in on the thread and gave no help to the OP so therefore I too, am an asshat. lol. I got so involved in calling out TJ I forgt what I was going to say to the OP. Time for me to put on my dunce cap and st in the corner a while. haha.
OP-I have a superchips programmer in my truck. Not as good as a custom tune, but for what I use it for, it's awesome. I run 93 octane all the time, but if I travel to somewhere that only has 91, my truck doesn't complain. Since I just moved to Houston, I'm goin to find a custom tuner eventually (there are NONE in Aspen) but if your're ust looking to bump your truck up some, I'd check out a superchips or bullydog or something of that nature and see how you like it.
