    Your on brave soul to be saying that on this website. I bet allen could get you to 7.5 0-60. But all in all. A 4.8 with headers and cam. 8 seconds doesnt sound all that impressive.

    Why would you bash someone for purchasing HPT? Everyone has the right to blow their crap up if they like. If you don&#39;t know what you&#39;re doing you can trash an engine. Allen likes building engines and then tuning them correctly once you try your hand at tuning yourself. HPT is also good to have if you already have a Nelson tune because you can save log files to send to Allen and he can update your tune and email it to you. There are a lot of people on here that have their own tuning software. It&#39;s not like they&#39;ve all gone into the business of tuning trucks and are stealing business away from Allen. Maybe we can all go over to LS1Tech and PT.net and bash all the HPT owners there, too.

    just said that... Everyone has a right to try what they want. It&#39;s not like he went and bought a tune from a vendor that is a competitor of Allen&#39;s and posted his results and then bashed Allen or anything like that. Take it easy on our fellow members. You&#39;re not going to bash me if I try my hand at painting are you?

    personally i think he is a brave soul for even trying hptuners. im too scared to go near that stuff. just keep working it at and you can really start doing some cool things, or you can blow something up. you get on the hptuner website ever? i went on there a few times just to check it out. its pretty interesting. be careful and goodluck
