    What's up guys

    Farmtruc did the tuning and installed the 2.90 pulley in my truck and all I can say is that the truck feels so daaaamn good. The boost gauge reached 9.5 psi
    I can't get traction at all
    The tuning is great, I highly recommend it, allen tuned the truck without the smaller pulley first and it really woke it up, I´m very happy with the results.

    Joe from JAG Performance did the shift kit and now the truck can't stop spining the tires in second gear, feels great. For normal daily driving it was a little to much for me, it did hit to hard (the install was with just one washer), so farmtruc raised TM a little in normal driving and erased it at WOT, so now the daily driving is ok, but when I punch the gas the beast starts screaming like hell and leaving tire marks everywhere.
    So Farmtruc and JAG, keep up with the good work

    I´ll keep you guys updated with 1/4 mile times as soon as I can go to the track.

    Thanks.

    Ah yes, a shift kit is the shit! I love my TransGo! Man I bet that truck really hauls it now. Good job!

    So you can feel it in the seat of your pants. I wonder how much you gained. Allen needs a Dyno! Allen needs a Dyno! Kids voice.

    How much difference would a basic shift kit make in my 99 4L60E? I mean is there a time difference in the quarter mile to expect, or does it mainly allow the trans to shift firmer?

    A shift kit and servo allows you remove TM,

    TM pulls timing throughout the entire rpm table, pulling timing means less HP and slower times.

    So ya, i would say a shift kit and tuning the trans would get you a quicker time.
