You should be able to hit that. Do you have a torque goal?

id say 315/635
and start with the highest tune , on the worm engine, do it twice, than fiddle with other tunes. make sure the engine is up to full operating temp.

and good luck. its fun, belive me.

Highest tune and pedal to the floor. Also don't use your brakes on the dyno let them slow you down with there brakes. Have Fun its a Blast.

if i were you i would not waist time on low tunes . go all out
do one pull with o/d on, and one with it off. now third pull with next setting down - do it with whatever o/d combo give you better# . and you all set.
o/d on off varies dyno to dyno.
id say with od on you should be able to load down the engine better.
see for yourself.
all trucks are like woman, all the same gender , but like diferent handling
see what yours like.

your injectors might be fine but your HPOP might not be able to keep up with oil demand.
