Getting chip reburned

[scott015]

i sent a copy of my dyno results to Sal at PSP and asked him about getting a reburn... this is what he said


The dyno looks great, the air/fuel is perfect where it is (11.7:1). The power is also great for your year of truck and mods. I would not change a thing. However, you could upgrade to a dual program chip, and add a race program for 98-104 octane, and that would get you close to 400rwhp. But the program you have now looks perfect.



so that being said.... I had 388hp, brand new F1 tires, traction bars and yet I still lost to a Z28 and Poorsvtman (less mods than me)

can anyone tell me why? I dont think its me the driver, i didnt seem to "mess up" and just spin for a long time or anything....

maybe its just me... maybe I gotta realize im driving a 5000 lb truck now and not a crotch rocket anymore....

The z28 could've had mods also. I would go to the track to see if it was me or the truck :D

hey scott we can always race again. :nana2

[scott015]

anytime anywhere

i still dont know to say we ever had a real official race... i would say our trucks were pretty even... but seemed like the faster we got, u were starting to pull on me.... maybe that has alot to do with the ftvb shifting better than me...

i dunno.... either way, when I get this radio install stuff done im gonna do the ftvb next

When ya'll do this post it. I may tryto get out ther. i want see this plug fiasco happen. I never realized that plugs could be such a pain on a vehicle like this. I also wnato check out some of these mods, since I am still modless as far as the engine goes. I do want to at least check the plugs, to make sure they are tight. I may just goa head and get soem NGK's and replace them at that time. I just gotta watch, so I don't fall into this mod trap and start dropping a ton o' money.

When ever your out this way just give me a buzz. Im thinking about yanking the supercharger off to clean the intercooler and all that mess in about a few weeks or just changing the plugs. Depends how lazy i get. With 73k miles im sure its pretty ugly. But anytime your out this way give me a call. 817-939-5924.
