It will go. Try it and report back. If you are afraid to mash it in 4wd/awd, why are you modifying your truck to go faster? Just sayin . . . .

Launch in 4wd, not the auto mode. Nothing will happen. Except great acceleration.

I'm not trying to be a jerk, just pop it into "traction mode" and let it eat. With boost or without. Look up ak2007r6 video recently of 4wd launches in his 6.2 procharged. Smokeshow, Atomic, stock48 all put down stupid power and launch in 4wd. You will be just fine now (tuned and bolt ons) and later (boosted). Only thing that can hurt stuff is if you are lifted and have crazy CV axle angles and such, or if you start playing with the selector **** while WOT. Just click in 4wd, mat the pedal, and go to 2wd after your run.

didnt think you were being a jerk. do you mean traction control. even stock tune with TC on it roasts thru 2nd. Thanks for letting me know im ok in 4wd. I would think there would be a delay in AWD that mite cause strain on the drivetrain.
