ok, so no new mods to the rig except some new tires and rims.. I went to H2's and wrapped them with Bridgestone Dueler Revo 2's in a 315 x 70 R17. i am still running the quad 2 on 70hp no DPF. the only think different i did, is 16 ounces of 2 stroke in a full take of fuel... i have run through half a tank, and on the way home today on a nice quiet strech of road near Miramar i decide to try my 0 to 60 times... i consistantly have been running 6.00 - 6.02. today i ran 5.97. then i went back to the same strech and did it again because i didn't believe it... i ran 5.96.... wow... I am loving it....

What were your old wheel and tires?? Maybe your new ones are lighter? I rotated my tires the othe day and its hard to believe how heavy my wheel and tires are.

What are the lights and switches for on your dash pod?

Upper left is for the Garmin GPS. I hard wired it in and hid the wire... the lower one with the light is for the 1500 watt power inverter in the bed. I also have power from the inverter in the cab...

I still got ass whoopings and your change. Ran outta cake a long time ago. Fortunately, I still owe you some change;).

I think the real question here from me is, "On your way to getting 0-60's in the 5's, were there any unforeseen problems?"
Crappy tunes, tranny troubles, warranty claims argued over, programmers you didn't like, etc.



And, as a co-worker always tells me, "If you want mercy, the church is down the road."

Only things that i have had go wrong, is the Hydro boost went south twice, power steering pump once and the steering box threw a tooth once... that about it... warranty covered it all no ?'s asked... i run the 70 hp tune, cause it gives me the best millage to power ratio...no tranny troubles.. i am gonna do a trans go jr one of these days... i have changed the tranny fluid and spin on filter every 30 k after the first 5 k... and i run an air raid cold air intake with no resonator....

zipman, How did you get those tires and wheels to fit? I am thinking about doing 285/70/17 revos on my 17 inch stock rims. Would love to get some H2s and the 315s... Care to share your thoughts on how to do it!?

Also.. where can I pick up some H2s? Love the truck

The fit Great... I have the leveling kit on there... I had to do a little trimming to the skirt, and have to do a little trimming on the front corner of the bumper, no big deal @ all.. i get just a hair of rub when i am turning tight into a driveway... I thought of the 285's but my buddy @ discount said i will order in both the 285's and the 315's... we can trial fit them and see.. they were the same price for me... I got my H2's from craigslist one day... $100 for all 4 and they are of the 2003 vintage;).. I love the look, and the tire... i had the revo on my 3/4 ton Avalanche and it was a great tire... I am really happy with the Revo 2's... Now on there for 2 weeks and 1500 miles....

Just have to ask, but was your Edge adjusted for the new tire size? If not, you were actually measuring your 0-57.7 MPH time on the new tires.

That and cooler air. I've noticed my Dmax feels slightly better on the pull w/ 40 degree dry air as opposed to summer time alabama pea soupish air of 95 degrees w/ 130% humidity.

the Edge reads Mph from the computer and the computer has been adjusted to be accurate... i have confirmed this also by using a gps to compare the speedo with...

Just to give you something to compare to, My chrysler 300C ran a 0-60 time of 6.3 seconds stock, with ~1k bucks worth of mods it now runs it in 5.6 seconds..........you just did about the same time in a 7,500 lb truck.


:D

5.2 second 0-60 evo on level 3 :)
