Post wheres that psp chip and filter?

Man every day I am hoping my psp chip and filter will come and everyday I am disappointed. I ordered it 3 weeks ago. Is this how long everyone else had to wait? Also I put dual turbo mufflers on the 99 Lightning hoping for about 15 hp but it doesnt seem any faster. I cant believe the guys at www.454SS.com think their trucks will beat a lightning. They couldnt even beat the old lightnings with the 351's. They are in for a rude awakening at the cyberbrawl!!!!!

Bad, I got mine in Monday after six weeks. It hauls A$$!! I do have some detonation I don't like, but I e-mailed Sal and I am waiting for his reply. I raced a T/A today, and it was a blast.

1: Was it worth the wait Jerry?

2: How would you rate the quality of the products?

Blue, the filter is first rate. I'm not sure I like the blower sound like the rest of you; but we will see. The chip makes the truck fast, but the pinging has got to go! The shifts at W.O.T. are a blast. I thought with having good fuel like we have in Texas, I would not have the detonation problems. I don't know about this learning process the chip has to go through. I'm waiting for Sal to answer these questions.

To Jerry Jordan

As an interim measure, if you have not done so already, why don't you try some octane booster to see if that eliminates the pinging, etc? You could have bad gas or reformulated gas that cannot get the job done. Might save you some engine damage too.

What kind of gas do you use? Is premium grade the type recommended by Ford?

I've seen a 454SS run a 12.0 on the motor and he had 300 hp worth of giggles in the bed for special occasions. Don't underestimate the potential power of a big block. ;-)

But honestly, I'd be more concerned about the Syclones...
