It's Tuned!

Hey Everyone...

I picked up my GCSRT8 last night from Mike at Diablo. I had hoped to get this thread up sooner, but had daddy duties last night!

From what I understand the rwhp gains is very minimal...10 rwhp at the most. With that said...it feels like a completely different truck. The throttle response is impressive, the shift points are now where they should be and the shift performance is awesome. To me it feels like a gain of 40-50 rwhp...the truck gets up and goes!

The Trinity system/tuner is also very impressive. From being able to modify the tune to monitoring the vehicles performance to even being able to capture a true 0-60 time. Just a cool little device. It mounts nice and neatly on the windshield...it seems to be a nice little package.

I will be spending sometime with it this weekend going through some of the different options, etc. If any of you have any questions...feel free to send them. I will do my best to help/answer them!

Big thanks to Mike and his team at Diablo. I am sure this will be the first of several more tunes to come!

Jeremy
