Went to the track friday night. First time at the track actually racing my truck by the way. I was actually pretty disappointed with the results. The truck was running great after the tune thursday night. Friday it was a turd on the top end. My best was only 14.0 @ 93 or something like that, didnt even bother posting the times. It was 90-95 degrees and humid as hell though. Still only hitting 5-6psi of boost with the 3" pulley. Starting to wonder if the pulley is actually 3". Thinking of ordering another one thats stamped as mine isnt. Iats are at 160-170 at the end of the track, thats why my top end sucks I suppose. Gonna get some meth when I get back from working.

wow, you guys sure expect alot from your trucks. Sounds about right to me. at my altitude your truck would run low 17's. @ sea level i would guess a low 16. I think 14.0 is pretty good with aheavy truck like that with 5psi

Truck weighed in at 5770 with me in it. Gonna take the grill guard off next time I go. I guess I could take off the hitch and spare and tailgate too lol. I think the main thing im disappointed with is the supposid 3" pulley I bought only makes 5-6psi. Im gonna order another 3" pulley thats stamped along with a 2.9 or 2.80 since im gonna be running meth. Gonna buy me a wideband as well. I will get into the 13's one way or another lol!

Did you log it? I pulleyed down and it turns out I was going lean up top causing it to launch like crazy, but accellerate like a turd.

Nah I didnt log it. I dunno if my scan gauge can log or not, but next time I go to the track I will see if I can get a log. I ordered a meth kit and im gonna install that when I get back.
