Hes tuning it right now. Ill prolly take it to a dyno day after the tune to see what improvements over the last tune it made. He looked at the settings and said theres a lot more in it. Said justune only added 2 degrees of timing, its sitting at 26 degrees right now.

Just got done with the tune. It runs a hell of a lot better, and feels like it has more power according to the highly accurate, never wrong "seat-o-meter". just gotta find a dyno that my truck will fit on lol. Thank you Area47 for taking your time and doing it right the first time. I def found the tuner Im sticking with

I can tackle the 112 truck.

matt. good to hear man. as i tell everyone, if you have any issues what so ever, call me. i wil handle it.

the longest truck that can fit on the dyno is a rclb. ecsb is too long. reason being, it is an above ground dyno and the four post lift that raises the vehicle to drive the car on the rollers. ecsb is about 17 inches too long.

Mike Norris has the same dyno setup, raise the car up and roll it back on the rollers. my ecsb fit perfectly on the lift with maybe a few inches to spare lol
