Data Loggers
#81
thought I'd chime in on what I did. From a side street as a start point to a tee intersection. 300 yds 0- 70. then too a stop. obviously I could not do a time but that is way less than 1200 feet. And it did not take long heh heh.

I only have 2 data points, both logged on the Dynolicious app on my iPhone. To keep everything equal, and keep as much of the human element out of it, I decided to do my runs the same. I'm sure if I spooled up the engine, and went for a 2 foot launch in 4wd I could do much better, but again, I just wanted raw data. The way started the test was the same each time. Right foot on brake, when the app said to go, remove foot from brake pedal, mash gass pedal to the floor as fast as I can.
Run 1 bone stock
0-60 8.21 sec
Run 2 Magnaflow cat back 1 hour after I completed installation
0-60 7.56 sec
I know I could have done MUCH better, especially as I broke traction for much longer after the Magnaflow install. The evedence is apparent in the dyno chart, and I could feel and hear the tires. I broke traction on both runs, but the Magnaflow run was so much more pronounced, and actually lasted long enough for me to say out loud "Go Biotch" before it was over.
I still have to do another run like that now that I have my CAI and ported TB installed, then I can mess with some launches and see where I'm at.

Just installed the Edge 2800 converter, made a run at 6.54. last run was a 6.94/6.92 with stock converter and Fastman TB. Prior to the Fastman TB install I ran a 6.24. I am going to work on my lauch some and if the time doesn't come down I'm going back to the stock TB and see what happens. The converter is very street friendly and certainly gets away from traffic easily.

I believe the converter can cut some more time off when driven properly. I also think the stock TB will put the truck into sub 6 range. I have refreshed the PCM twice and it still does not feel as good as the stock TB. I have a 400 mile trip this week and if it doesn't feel right by the time I return I'll stick the stock TB back on and make a run. Got some paint work to get done. Pictures to follow probably Friday.

Let me share some very impressive numbers.
From the time the drive shaft was removed to the trans sitting on my mechanic's work bench took 50 minutes. We spent 30 minutes removing/ installing the front seal, having a cup of coffee and installing the new TC. Another 50 minutes later, the truck was back together. We still had the rear end to drain and refill and filters to change in the trans. But still I was very impressed with the professionalism this mechanic consistantly demostrates. A very rare find. This is the same guy that installed my DTT/gears which are quieter than my original 3:55's. This young man is a real pro.

I am surprised that you are not seeing good results from it. That is basically the same tb I have from Dan and it has imporved my throttle response nicely along with a slight drop in times compared to stock.
