We cross the busy street and park in the median waiting to turn left, we were side by side. The last car flys by and we both take off. He squeels around his corner. I take off slower since I am on the inside. He punches it once he got straight, he has exhaust so his punch was obvious. So I punch it and do a mini fish thanks to this damn Nelson tune. We were even for only a split second. In first gear he was half a truck back. When I hit second my truck just took off. I did not even top out second and I had put 4 to 6 lengths on him. After that he just kind of layed back in traffic the rest of the way.

So whats the deal? Both trucks are rated at 345hp. His truck was a RC and mine is an EC. He has at least exhaust, who knows what else. My truck is completly stock except for a Nelson Tune.
The deal is he brought a knife to a gun fight,just think apples to apples,if he has a 2x4 quadcab with the best tune availible for it,you would have slaughtered him. both rated at 345HP ,i think the Gm horseys are just bigger.

Well the 99 5.3L were rated at 270 hp and 315 tq, and are considered the slowest of the GEN III trucks. Unless he's got more than e-fans, intake and exhaust, I'd say mid 15's, maybe? I noticed he shows his g-tech time for the Lightning but not for the Silverado, which you know he used the G-tech on too!

i don't think gm is better than dodge. or vice versa. i have always been a gm man and will stay that way. i won't call any brand a pos. there are some high points and low points on every make and model. the fact of the matter is we have a aftermarket that supports our motors and they have a computer that don't like mods. i won't say they don't have an aftermarket cause i feel that the dodges do.

now lets look towards the future, when the new gm truck comes out. it may be a 14.5 sec factory truck. great. guess what, dodge guys are gonna have their stuff figured out. then we are gonna be chasing their times down. then guess what, the new dodge will come out and they are gonna be chasing our times down cause we figured our trucks out.

you see my point. this is a cycle. forever going on.
