So i raced a tundra today...

[Prokopchuk_9]

I had traction control off. I never really thought tow haul made a big difference.

 

It doesn't... I've watched 1/4 mile times with it on and off. It actually slows them down I'm pretty sure or doesn't make a difference.

 

Its faster off the line because it bumps up the line pressure in the trans, but holding the shift a tad to long will raise your track time. Holding the gears longer in t/h slows you down. People think it's faster because it revs higher and sounds louder LOL...

3.73 gears and a BB tune will fix some of that TM slowing you down. Go from a dig.

I'm getting it dyno tuned tomorrow.

6.2 with 3.42's? Thought they only came with 3.73's? Anywho, thats GM's problem right there. They gear it way to high in the differentials for it to do anything

 

I dont "race" much because Im scared to lose and also I have an odd habit of breaking parts fast, so Ive learned to drive just a little slower haha

3:42's is almost the same as 4:10's in a 4 speed. I agree 3:73's or GTFO. Tundras are a 4:30 with a 6 speed I'm pretty sure...

My wife has a stock Tundra and she kills my 6.0 with BB tune and cold air intake! Kills! She has the 4:30's , where mine has the 3:73's so...

What about the weight difference or hp to weight ratio of the 2. I am pretty sure the tundra has GM beat there and that is why they are "faster".

[Edgecrusher09]

I'm getting tuned here in an hour. I won't be losing again ;)

[Edgecrusher09]

Stock numbers were 321 HP and 330 tq. After Chuck did his thing I ended up with 339 HP and 355 tq. Very happy!

Naahhh cost too much money to get any reliable HP ;-)

 

Cheaper to get 900-1000 hp than anything else, but waaaaay more expensive to hit 5-6-700 than anything else...plus it's a dodge

[Edgecrusher09]

Man my truck runs like a scalded ass ape now!
