Come on up Rick lets line them up, my handshaker against your BTS I think I know how that will play out

Well I did drive the truck to work today and after work we headed home and out in the country to see how the new mods worked in all tunes. Dang I have a new case of permigrin. Yes its running great in all tunes I have less smoke and more acceleration it seems like in the higher end of the power band I now have much more power. Well Red has ran good for a while now but its stronger than ever if I can go by the SOTP feeling. I did use 1/3 tank of fuel today after work but I needed to try it out.

Eddie,

It's amazing how some big sticks will make you fall in love with your truck all over again. You will have to renew your vows.

Robin I have learned the hard way. I did use to farm and thats what my truck was used for then. I had 175/146 Swamps for 8 months and wanted a little more so I upgraded to what I thought was 200/30% from swamps and went over 400HP and eventually had Jody to update my tuning and it ran good but not what I thought it should so a year later I had the chip updated again hoping to be better it was some still over 400hp as of last year but I was way to smoky even though it ran good. So I was talking to Dave at Swamps about upgrading injectors again to some 238's and he informed me that I had 238CC injectors already and thats what my injector receipt said also. So I had been running 238's with 200CC tuning an since I was not live tunned Jody tuned it as 200CC. Well after talking with Dave and Jody it looked like I needed some new tunes so Dave at swamps sent me the flow data sheet for my injectors and Jody re tuned my chip to the correct injectors so thats why my truck is running better. Thanks to Dave and Jody for making my truck much better. WOW what a story so always look at your receipt and packing slip.

In that case let me rephrase:

Nothing like realizing the potential of your big sticks to fall in love with your truck all over again.
