Honestly I think Ill be happy with anything faster than a 9.59 since that would be a .3 gain. And considering im still running stock manifolds, cats, trans, and converter that wouldn't be too bad I think.

Here's an idle video. Idle is set for 675 but runs 650-700. Sorry its not the best sound quality. My phone doesn't like anything louder than just normal talking.

I would be happy with that number too, lol! You never know, it may be even faster.

Didn't end up going last weekend. Should be going this weekend for sure. Something tells me this knock sensor code that pops up from time to time is going to hold me back a little.

Hopefully that sensor will behave.

Well only thing I got from TnT today was that I NEED to go ahead and replace both knock sensors. Truck ran worse today that it ever has before. And im pretty sure ran worse than stock lol. best time today was like 10.90 at 66mph. Truck doesn't start pulling like it should until 3000rpms. 2nd run I tried in 2wd. Pedaled it off the line, floored at 60' mark, then she spun shifting into 2nd gear.

Gonna get these sensors and harness swapped out and go from there.

Here's a little bit better idle video I got today as well. Sorry you cant see anything but that's how dark it is now at 530pm here in VA.

If you're like me and have crappy laptop speakers, earphones or earbuds will be best to listen with otherwise desktop speakers should be fine. These GoPros don't get the best audio quality. Video is long but until the edited version is up these will do.
