    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

    Just out of curiosity what is all done to your truck? Sounds like a good build.

    I was actually upset with the 12.6 until I watched the video. On street tires, I blew them off for 300 feet in 2wd and ran a 13.9 @ 109. In 4x4 I ran 12.6 @ 110 but blew them off at the line and lost .15 off my 60' from usual, and .38 from my 1/8 in San Antonio.

    Its a CCSB z71, cam, stall, bolt ons, nitrous. Needs a set of slicks and a 2wd run.

    Nice, I almost bought a 4wd just for launch capabilities. But then I thought I was going to use this truck to tow my LSX fox body all over. That plan didn't last long.
