I just got my truck back from [email protected] and I am amazed at how she drives now.
Thanks again JJ I've always enjoyed working with someone that can take time out of their own schedule to meet up with someone two hours away to trailer their vehicle up the road to work on and trailer it back down when finished. "Da Goods" for sure!
The boost on this thing comes at you so quick that I forgot a couple of times that I should be watching the road and not my gauge. lol
The shifts are just right, not too hard and not too soft. Yet when you stab the throttle the truck reacts.
These pulls were on a Mustang Dyno with the following mods:
2.8 upper/MAF Extender/Metco Idler/6#Lower/Beru Plugs/Extrude honed upper/Ported Eaton/ and an XCAL tune from JJ.
So far I haven't done much with the truck on the modding side atleast from a cost stand point. I remeber with the Lightning I had in 2000 it started to feel like I was throwing money at it and always mailing a chip back to a tuner for another program. :LOL
My how times have changed for the better.
Here's the two dyno sheets that I have.
A/F was 11.6-11.7
I'll post the pics of the sheets below with more information.
Later...

First pull was done as soon as the truck arrived and got strapped down.
Second pull was done about a half hour later.
Both these runs were with 15 #'s boost. [smilie=laugh.gif]
