Meh it works. We will see what the monetary situation dictates.

Ditto, mine made things really nice right from the start. Although I also did my headers at the same time as the TB (well the one I got now, I did the one with a knife edge first, and noticed a huge increase in sensitivity).

I am still looking for the time slip on 1st ever run but it is almost a second slower that this one.

2nd run consists of me in the passenger seat (340+) and motorscooter (150-160 maybe) who drove the truck. With the exception of no tailgate and bed cover, she is what she runs on the street. Street tires and no traction devices.

60ft - 2.4010
330ft 6.5269
1/8 e/t 9.7611
1/8 mph 75.28
1000et 12.5444
1000mph 82.61
1/4 et 15.0317
1/4 mph 93.85

Hey Guys With all due respect, although this sounds like fun, I just can't keep up with all the cool posts. Been away for 2 days and read data-logging and then jumped to here. By the times i've seen reported on both, I must have something wrong with my truck or its too old cause I am about a 1/2 to 2 seconds slower than some stock or barely modded QC,s. I will try and sort myself out and get down into the six seconds range and then I will report back for sure.

We also have altitude working against us. Not to sure where the rest of these guys sit but we are a bit higher up. I think I am at 23 to 2400 feet about sea level.

Yep forgot about that your right I think we are the Highest spot in Canada besides the rockies, but still I need to look at my set-up anyways, but I will not be taking out my tool-box (from the truck) to change anything and I did say I will report my new time after I install the e-fan on Data Log to see what the improvement is for sure.

Yeah guys down in Mission BC by Vancouver are running 2 or 3 tenths quicker in the quarter compared to here. They are like 300 above sea level.

If I'm above sea level at all it's maybe 25-75ft at MOST

Looks like I'll need to finally update my SC with the data logging feature and do a few 0-60 times. Then un-tune and tune my dad's CTD and see what times it can do.

I'm loving the times, and don't see a Stock2wdQC time yet so maybe I'll hold it for a wee bit

A little update, I installed the AI this afternoon. That sucker reads a lot of paramenters. I'll take me awhile to learn to use it. Updated my SC3865 and retuned the truck. I don't think it actually does anything for the 03 but I still go through the motion. Made a couple runs and got it down a tenth (6.19) pretty constantly. Don't have time to switch TB today with leaving early for Tidewater to go to the paint shop. Next week I believe I'll have a new time to post, the truck really feel good.

The AI is a really nice gauge. I love mine bc I can monitor so much with it. Good to see that you were able to cut off a tenth from your last time. Keep the updates coming.
