Default Rst?

where do they come from? i couldnt find a web site. do you have to order them through a dealer. Oh7cla$$ic told me he meet a guy that had a RCSB RST that he ordered with a LS2 and T56.
i've seen and heard about them before but know nothing about where they come from...

I doubt the LS2 thing, but who knows. They'd probably do anything if enough money was thrown their way.

I've never seen a Regency with an LS2 or even an LS1. I have seen a 4.8 with a MagnaCharger on it, but that was about as extreme as it got.

If you want to own and rolling **** pile that falls the f*ck apart and never find Regency replacement parts, then I suggest you should buy one. But.....if you want something reliable and dependable, then I suggest you stay away froma Regency Package truck

I would love to see the stock tune on a 4.8S/C RST

How are the tunes on the supercharged Joe Gibbs?

So it comes with a superchips handheld? Haha or do the dealers just load up a crap tune off of one of those things and say its good to go?

I'm 99% sure that JoeGibbSilverado is right. When the dealerships take delivery of the trucks, they are already "upfitted" with all the aftermarket goodies and they have already been tuned and so forth by the Conversion Company. The MagnaCharged 4.8 that we had in the shop had some literature in the owners manual about the MagnaCharger and had some SCT stuff in it too. So I'm assuming it was probably tuned with an SCT can.
