That explains it.. I cut 1.75 on 265/70/17s and now that I'm on 275/60/17s which r 30" tire vs 31.6 I went slower.. I'm sure it had to do with hooking issues.. let me try to get those straps and hit the track again.. will c how it goes

Maybe different conditions, head wind, tail wind etc. My truck isn't effected much by Da unless the turbo is maxed out.

I still can't believe how well this thing runs... You gain more MPH between the 8th and 1/4 than I do with my stock converter. So much for losing efficiency... haha.

I have a TB stall going in as we speak in my stock tranny to help plug the gap while I get my hands on an 80e. I know its a pos and ill be lucky to get 2800 out of it... but its certainly better than stock.
