Somethings wrong with it man. I bet it's all in the tune. First year 3 valves were seriously under tuned from the factory.

I have a 3.55's w/LS and allot less Hp than you and I can get rubber - and this was on new concrete.

He has a 3.55 open and it's a 4wd.

 

Remember, the 04-08's have a electronic throttle, so your not getting 100% power when you punch it.

The only mods I've done is the Gotts Intake mods and a run of the mill Flowmaster dual exhaust. I didn't feel a difference after either were done. The programmers are stated to give you 25 horsepower and 40 lb/ft of torque. Hopefully I'll be able to feel that.

 

He said 3.73 LS, I have a 3.55 rear = LS / front = Open

 

I didn't know that. What's up with that ???

 

I don't know, just Ford's way of making it more comfortable.

 

Brew, I was referring to honeycutt's truck, not yours.

 

I'm curious if that's what gets tuned out ? Iduno, something gets changed drastically.. - A buddy has a 05 3 valve that was slow as hell, - the truck would barley brake torque stock rubber lol. Purchased a tuner, just ran off the canned set and it was like night and day, different truck entirely.

 

Okay, my bad

 

I am sure that is part of my problem 04 and up no throttle cable all controlled by the computer u can floor it but who knows if the throttle body comes full open?? Plus I have 3.73 LS, I am not sure I can spin on wet pavement by just floorin it from a standstill.

 

You can spin the tires on wet pavement with the 3.73's. Hell, mine does it with 3.55's. A custom tuned programmer will eliminate almost all of the throttle lag and give 100% power when you want it.
