Great tuning gains out of my 4.3 with time slips.
Well I've had my 2015 Silverado with the 4.3 since January and I think with tuning alone I've hit my best times. Yesterday was some great air minus a 10-20mph head wind. I think with a little more tweaking and no wind I could see a 15.00 but that will have to wait till the spring. I think I have made great progress with just a tune to show how much potential this new 4.3 has. I am curious to see what other guys with the 4.3 are running. If you have times for your 4.3 or even the DI 5.3 as well I would love to see them.
Below is the Stock time slip vs Tuned time slip.

Yes it is. That time is with full street weight, 1/4 tank of e85, 3.42 gears, 265/70/17R A/T tires, and 5500lbs with me in it.

Someone needs to go after a 4.3 record. Surely one has seen 12's by now. The problem is if you pop it, a 4.8 is probably cheaper.
a rcsb xtreem would be an awesome starting platform. Forged pistons and rods with nitrous and turbo.
**** i miss my s10. I thought a 69 camaro was one of my dream cars, and im missing the s10 that had to go to fit the fbody in the garage...
Im truely a truck guy at heart.

i'm even more impresssed with your 60'. My Double Cab just ran 15.7 bone stock this past weekend with 87 in it at 92mph. It 60' a 2.7 haha. I ran it with the TC on and when I took the TC off it smoked the tires roughly 30 feet out. It was only 40 degrees out, but I didn't want to tear the tires apart as this is my DD.
I'm assuming the times you ran are with the intake, exhaust and tune? Nice times man. Once I hit 50,000 miles on mine I think I will have it tuned. Also, my truck came with the factory 20" wheels. That might have hurt traction a little, but oh well. My truck came without the E-85 option, anyone know how hard it is to convert? It's only $150 option for the 2015's but they had the truck on the lot and I needed a car.
Great times out of the 6 banger, time for some turbo 6's running around!
