How much does your truck weigh with you in it?

------------------
Jeff
93 Mustang GT: 11.40 @ 124.5 (old combo)
00 Lightning: 13.32 @ 103.5 (JDM chip)

Those are "the newest SAE corrected #'s"
Before the computer went over it, the lines were just over the 300 mark....

I havent weighed my truck yet, be another one on the DML exactly like mine has been weighed at 4400.... (dunno how close)

 

Coolva,

Horse power ratings can be a little deceptive.. With a supercharger your HP goes up due to massive torque increases across the existing rpm range. This is unlike a normally aspirated engine upgraded with cams, heads and things of that nature which gets it's increases due to an extended rpm band. On a heavy vehicle, like a truck, it's that supercharger's torque that gets you rolling toward the traps. If you had a normally aspirated engine of the same displacement with a comparable HP rating as you supercharged 318 your times would be significantly less.

My baby is loud as hell (cutouts were off on that run)

With the cutouts on I pulled a 288.9HP 340.1TQ

~10HP/TQ from cutouts...

 

You guys deserve a compliment. It's nice to see that "L" and Dakota owners get along every once in a while and exchange positive thoughts and info. without argueing who's faster or better.

My theory is, if its fast, and its not rice... hell... its nice hehehe

 

I've met Tim and he's good people so it makes it easy to get along. He's nothing like 2 nameless little goat breeders that that run an R/T board...but then again I don't think anyone is like them.
