Dyno numbers



They are a little old but I was happy w/ them.These numbers are on 93 pump gas. I am curious what kind of difference would there be w/ some 110..Once I get rid of 2 cats and go back to an airforce one intake I will get tuned again .

I have many mods on it. But the meat and potatoes mods are 6# lower and ported blower. I have most bolt ons and am considering long tubes for an easter present. But I do know a fresh tune will be coming up by summer.

Yes I definatly need to get this thing to hook. I assume I will have to break down and buy some bars from Johnny becuase these truk traks are not getting me the results I want.

Plus they will only work to a certain ET (and you are real close if not there)
Mine worked fine in the 13's and high 12's, and actually ok into the mid 12's
But once I got to 12.0 and better they were bad news. If you want to see what happens when you get the TT's into the 11's, this is it, they lift the REAR TIRES off the ground. What actually happens is when the snubbers get planted against the Chassis the Torque actually lifts the rear of the truck off the ground. The feeling inside is extremely violent, I had to get off it many runs as a result, I stayed in it this time and went down the track swaying from side to side (thats hard to see in the Vid, but it was extremly noticable to the people standing at the line) I have LONG since switched to 58" bars

Vid is Here

I have to ask because I've been reading 58" bars but I have no idea who makes them!

Is this a nick name for a certain vendors bars, or a certain style?

Yep thats what is happening w/ mine. The slappers actually slap to hard w/ a violent jolt felt inside the truck. Time to spend more money!

Agree, its the decision that affects many.Which card do I want to put 1,300.00 bucks on! It does not help when you hear someones Lightning that has full exhaust and revs next to you and you have just a catback to throw back at em' . But I also know that I have at least 1,300.00 more bucks available. When it comes to this Lightning mod bug the only vaccine is my wife which gets to the mailbox before I do..LOL
