Outlaws, Do you tune with HPT? If so I would like for you to look at my stock file to see where to start. I have HPT but haven't bought the credits for the tune yet.

Trailblazer converter and gears would help you out IMO, without breaking the bank or driveability.

I'm not shifting at 6500,I shift 1-2 @6000 and 2-3@ 6200 I just like keeping the limiter out of the way.
