    How does throwing your income in someone's face make your argument any more valid? I have been on this site a little while, not near as long as some. I have noticed that you can gain a lot more knowledge by reading instead of arguing with almost every guy that has a fast and proven truck. But listing your toys and bragging about the measly 75k a year that you make is not helping your cause. I promise these guys know what they are talking about, if you listen to what they are saying you may end up with a fast truck.

    Haha he does essay 75k like he is some kind of filthy baller. Believe me your 75k don't impress around here. Got more than one Guy who makes less than 25k a year and have faster trucks than you. Also got quite a few six figure earners on this forum. Thing is if you show respect for these guys you will get respect.

    Again about the damn programmer it is the best programmer around, but its definitely not efi live or hptuners. You need to understand that a custom tune is the end all be all in this industry. Day in and day out the programmers will and do get out performed by custom tunes in every way especially when it comes to those who have their own cables for efi live or hptuners.

    Hmmmm, my $2600/month got my truck goin pretty good, it's not as fast as quite a few, but it's still quick for what it is. So yes, you make twice what I do, but I have the sense to listen to those who know what is proven to work, so my truck is faster than yours. Spend all that money you make on some Greg Banish tuning DVD's and learn what your tuning capabilities are.

    Throwing income and your toys around is a sure sign you hav lost the battle and seeking desperate measures. also If you've already got 5k in upgrades on your truck and have this kind of attitude chances are you were SOLD some bullshyt and you convinced yourself to fork up the dough. you have 2k in your rear end but less than 300hp??? Sounds like overkill or someone sold you a shiny stock posi unit and impressed you with a bunch of terminology you dont understand you fell for it. smh...ive got less than 2k in my entire ls swap and im pretty sure i could leave you in the dust. Watch some of the youtube videos...read some of the build threads..no one is here to sabotage your truck...these are guys who know what they are talking about (for the most part) lol.. you might as well grab one of those ebay chips...only $25 bucks..get you and extra 150 hp and 40mpg! lmfaoooo
