Welcome!! Any mods to your truck? :pics:
it ain't no big thang, hehee, enjoy the site
I don't have any pics but here are my mods:
Looks.... 4/6 drop on boyd codington timeless 5 9.5 wide in the back, bridgestone potenza p03 tires, roll pan, shaved tailgate, bed cover, de-trimed
Sound... jbl speakers for high's and mid's with a jbl amp pusihing them, 2 mtx 10's soon to be combined with 2 mtx 12's with a jbl amp, and an older panasonic head unit
Performance... Thorley headers, crane 1.6 roller rockers, intake, flowmaster 2 chamber (wanting to upgrade to true dual's with dynomax mufflers and no cat's), 160 t-stat, e-fans, ported and polished tb, tb spacer, vette servo, transgo shift kit
im probably misisn some of the other stuff but thats pretty much the sum of everything
damn, that souds great, literally, i'm sure
did the headers make any difference, i'm just itching to make some, i just want ac first, lol,
later,
allen
on my engine i was probably the most satisfied with the results from the headers...i have heard tho that on the newer gen vortecs (not mine) and ls1 engines headers don't yield as much of a gain unless you go with longtubes. but i know it helped mine, but then again its a 1st gen vortec and not an ls1
farmtruc..i just noticed you do tuning for the nbs trucks.. do you know if there is anyway i can do tuning myself like ls1edit with my truck instead of having to go a route like westers...i have heard that you can from some people but they won't go into enough detail to get me anywhere and then other people just say no...
thanks
ya, sure do, i do tuning on 99-02 ls1's and trucks, and all fords, shhh, don't tell anyone, hahaha,
if you could explain a little better on the second question , i'd be glad to answer it, you mean me do the file, but you upload it?
thanks,
allen
i think thats what im asking...is there anyway for me to upload the file in my ecm without or anyway of me creating my own file and uploading it?
btw i know some computer programing (mainly for website stuff like sql)...and im willing to learn whatever is needed if i don't already know it
in order for you to read, create , upload a file you'll have to buy ls1edit. i can't think of any other program out there that is even close to it, you have predator, hpp3 and sunchips, but they pretty much tune it the way they want it tuned.
if you had edit, you could read it, send it to me, i mod it, then you get it back and upload it.
allen
i wish i could do that but everyone has told me ls1 edit won't work...i have heard there is a way to make it work, is this true?
rcfast...what size are your tires? 20's? 17's? i'm lookin at some 17x9.5" Boyds but have no clue what kinda tires to go with...something around 255/55/17 and 275/45/17 for the rear with a 4/6 im plannin on.
i just found out tonight i have a hookup @ Tire Kingdom(%10 over cost i hear) :jump:
btw i dont think the ls1 edit is gonna work for your 98.
:twocents:
i have 18's im runnin 255/45/18 i could have gone wider but the price gets up there and the rims is well protected (trust me on that one) and im runnin 245/45/18 on 8.5 wide in the front and those are also well protected
also is there anyone on here that is familiar with custom burnin prom's...i have been looking into this and i came accross this site http://xtronics.com/memory/EPROM.htm anyone familiar with any of this stuff?
Ah, i neglected to refresh my memory with your previous post, you have a 98, sorry, edit won't work.Quote:

i'm looking at getting some software that will do your style, just not anytime soon, maybe in a few months.
sorry,
allen
so there is software made to edit or are you waiting for it to come out...im willing to be patient..as i have been patient tuning wise for a while
btw i like this board a lot so far
there are definitely softwares and hardware out there to program your chip, and there are many company's out there that can do it.
i'll let you know when i get it, shouldn't be too long, until then if you can't wait i can recommend some places.
allen
You just need to put a LS1 in your truck then it will work with LS1 edit.
LOL...an ls1 would definately be nice...know anyone with a camaro ls1 that wants to trade?
