OK- I made this a storyline and tried to do it as accurately as I could to avoid fraud. Started with SC tuner in cab, took pics, next to dash so you know it's same truck, end result pics, motor pics, pics with SC in my truck, etc-so there is no way to make something up. But I'm sure someone will. Anyway, here are the pics(sorry, iPhone pix quality not too good)


Entering into the SC


Log by speed, 0-60 selected.


6.93 0-60. Remember, these are all VIN locked. (Waits for next bash) And yes, truck is sitting on 37's, 3:55 anti-spin rear, "windsail" 9" lift... imagine numbers if I put on stock wheels a 31"...


SC in cab, I apologize for the muddy mats, did some mudding earlier :x


Yes, it is a 5.9L motor.


Proof of motor.


Dirty ram. The way it should be.


Now, I am awaiting the bashing from cherry ram. Let me see here..

Doesn't stock hemi run about 7 seconds in the 0-60?
Remember, I said I could KEEP UP with a hemi, like I said 30 times before, by the time we hit the stoplight we were neck and neck. Me on 37's, him on stock teenies.

I'm just happy some people had faith in me to prove it and put up numbers. And that's a nice burn saying the camaro doesn't have 600hp. Would you like to race your hemi against my camaro? :X epic fail, lol. anyway- the camaro stays in storage 90% of the year, after I got ran over by a semi in it, and rebuild literally the entire rear of the car, and had everything redone, I'm scared ****less to drive it because I don't want a rock to hit the paint. it's disappointing, and I always told myself I'd never get that way. I was like, if I have it-I will enjoy it. But now... erg... I don't know. I do enjoy taking it to the strip though, it's a bit more controlled there.

Hahahaha, he had long hair back in the day. My dad was the sh*t :-D

It's all good bro. I had a guy last summer who was laughing at me when I said my camaro could take his corvette z06, although the corvette z06 is the sexiest car on the planet, I had to race him. So I beat him, although it was close, he didn't know I had a LS7 under the hood:x :x His was stock, which is about 550hp. I had mine with full custom exhaust, k&n, and pro tuned, sitting around 600hp. 600hp + posi on 355/25/19's in the rear = rocket ship.


OH YEH!!! MY favorite part of the 0-60 test......... forgot to write this in above post... Holy GOD, between 3000-6000 RPM's, it sounds like the freakin atmosphere of the planet is being annihilated into the intake, it has a sicker sound then my camaro!! I about peed myself!! I should of taken the air cleaner off to do my run. I bet I could of gotten a tiny bit more out of her.

I can't believe you haven't done some kind of intake yet, is that just a plain old paper filter you got? My chit pipe K&N sounds like a jet engine sucking all the air in the world in.
