Did you gain the 4/10's with your mailorder Nelson's or the driven tune?

I'd love to meet up and see some of the trucks from the board, but it's a little out of my way

it was a basic mail order tune. now it is a driven tune and will continue to be.

I would not be able to compare to Westerns. However, I am very satisfied with my driven Nelson tune.

hey augie you cant go see lyndon? that would be a good thing if you could. i can tell you there are always variables to a driven tune. especially if it is on a dyno.that is where my truck will get its next tweeking im sure.i have seen people find at least 10 more ponies from a on the spot dyno tweeking. road trip.

You should be close, but I have about half your mods, and am lighter, (then of course there's the 5-Speed...) Would be a fun race though.



I'll even let ya run my LT-1 Caprice Patrol car while your down here.

i gained over .5 tenths with nelson tune over the hpp3. The only mods i have is PROCOLD,DYNOMAX BULLETS MUFFS and SPACER. I ran a 15.2 with those mods and hpp3. Then went to the track and ran a 14.7 spinning half way through 1st gear.


Ohh Demon im sure lance(02Denail) has gotten faster then 14.4.
