what's up guys!
well a couple of nights ago it was a very nice 57 degrees outside and i had just finished installing my mopar cai that i got for christmas so i decided to try her out. my best time before the cai and tcm reflash was a 12.98 @105 mph w/ a 0-60 at 4.4 sec. @ 62 degrees. i have not been able to duplicate those times untill now.
well w/ the new goodies installed the first run was a 12.85 followed by a 12.76, w/ a final run of 12.72 @105.4 mph! my 0-60 was 4.1 sec and 60 foot was at 1.7xx. the combo of intake and tcm upgrade has made a big improvement on the butt- dyno. i can't wait for moroso to open up on the next week.
you guys have a great week and a happy new year!:)

nice times! I am getting my G-tech today so I'll see what numbers I get in 40 degree weather. Not sure I will be able to determine 1/4 mile times since I haven't been able to find a good strait road in my area.
Did you get the numbers in auto stick or auto? I think I will try both

okay, I got my g-tech and went and did a quick run - found a short stretch with no cars.
first and only run in automatic was 4.36 for 0-60
I'll need to find a spot for the 1/4, but for now I'll fool around with the 0-60 measurement. I'll post a pic of the time later when I have time.
will try the 0-60 in autostick next to see if it helps
:D

Timster - great times - do you have any mods?

No mods.. The temp was ~40 degrees, so maybe that helped. This g-tech thingy is pretty cool. Not sure how accurate the times are, but it seems like it may be useful for when I do get mods - to see any gains or losses.

Did 2 more 0-60 runs this evening - 1 in automatic and 1 with the auto stick. Both runs were at about 30 degrees F.
Looks like auto stick is the way to go as I was able to get 4.19 in this mode. In automatic I got 4.33, nearly identical to the first run posted above. take a look at the pics below!

Man, launching this beast is such an adrenaline rush! The front end literally lifts up the whole 4+ seconds during the launch. I swear, it’s almost hard to see, let alone control this beast. I guess it takes some getting used to this trucks g-force and in your face acceleration! Whew, I am exhausted!

Hi!
The runs were w/ auto mode. it really is amazing how the cooler it is outside the faster the truck runs, I think there is alot of potential w/ a good tuner!

yep, agree 100% on the trucks potential!
