Good! I want to see this truck you got!
How long you around for?

I'm trying to stay around the house, but we'll see, lol. Had to do some wrenching on this truck, mine needed balljoints, the ex needed/needs attention. All the stuff that doesn't get done while I'm travelling, besides everything else. Already missing too much of my kids life, that's the sh/tty part.

I usually tow my travel trailer on matt s "hot street", and not just on flat ground. Granted, it's not quite the hills out west, but there are some 6% grades on this side of the country, just not as long. Four miles instead of eight:poke:

thats common sense not tuning.. not working the motor as hard when its singing at 3k rpm.. try it next time.. just click the od off button....

That's how I tow. I let that v8 sing. but I'm always loaded around 16k. Guess that's my problem. Plus I'm running the stock turbo with a ported housing.

Lil update, swapped chips to matt tunes. Ran it down the road, empty.
No smoke on any tunes, except the allout tune, which I'd just a faint haze.
So far, so good, we'll get a load on her soon, see what the egts with 20k behind the truck. I think these tunes will be fine!

On a side note, was thinking of Swamps injectors. How do I get in contact with Matt for tunes? Or any other recommendations for that matter.

Thanks.

Pm him here, email or phone. I know he's a little backed up, but I usually get a call back in a day or so.
