Well went to the track today not very happy with times the conditions were not great itwas 85 out side with 15 mph headwind.
First pass with bully dog in extreme was 14.88@93.34 2.25 60ft.
second pass with bully dog extreme was 14.90@93 (14.90@93.22).22 2.23 60ft
Third pass diablo in 120hp 14.79@94.56 2.2560ft
fourth pass diablo in 120hp 14.80 @93.98 2.22 60ft.

The headwind does not help with the times, and the truck does have 35 toyo mt's. I was going to try the crazy larry but i was testing last night and am worried about running that tune i can feel the truck lay over like it runs out of fuel i think the tune is to much for the truck without a lift pump. It does feel real strong to about the middle of 3rd gear then it will lay over. I thinkwith a lift pump this tune will run very strong!!

All of our local tracks are 1/8 mile. What were your 1/8 mile times and mph?

What are you running for exhaust? Blocked EGR? Anything else or just stock?

I have 4 inch cat back no blocker yet, I think i am going to order the pipe from turbo back to the muffler and get rid of cat.My best 1/8 mile time was with the diablo it was 9.32@74mph. One thing that killed my et was the crappy 60 ft's I wont launch it in 4wd so it makes it hard to hook it up i am leaving with about 5 lbs boost and it is still spinning.

Last week I made one 1/8 mile pass with mine, 9.51@76 mph , 2.10 60 ft time, just drove it out easy in 4wd.
I have a Superchips set on Performance and cat back 4" exhaust.
May try it again later, after more mods.

Went back to the track tonight, i removed the cat other then that every thing is the same as last time out.Best time with bully dog was 14.53 @94.98 2.16 60 ft. Best time with diablo sport was 14.36@95.54 2.06 60 ft. Taking the cat off made a huge difference, the temp was about 80 with about a 10mph headwind. I am pretty happy with these numbers, considering it is lifted with 35's and in 2wd.

Not bad #s there for sure in 2 wd and 35" tires. Sounds like the Diablo runs pretty good. Thanks for the test!

SOTP the Diablo definately feels better, I guess it also translates to the track! Nice numbers by the way!

The diablo works great the 85 hp tune is the best tune yet i have ran in the truck the trans works great. Even in the 120 hp the trans works much better than the bully dog. It does have more timing rattle than the bully dog though.

Does anyone know someone in authority at DIABLOSRORTS. I`ve been getting the run around since last Thurs. on the shipping back to me of a Predator I sent in on the 14th. In fact I have plain been lied to. They told me last Thurs. it was going out that day and they would email me the trk. #, which I have to have. They didn`t, so I called again Fri. and after a long wait , I got to talk to a real person, Brian, and he said it didn`t make it out Thur, ( there`s a new guy in shipping ) but it would go out that day, Fri. and he would email me the trk. # first thing this morning, Mon.
Nothing by 2pm so I called again and afer a long wait I got some squeaky voiced person who finally told me he couldn`t help and a lot of people were out because of the Super storm that was approaching, which I know ain`t gonna be there for a couple more days anyway. I asked him if there was anyone else there that just might be able to help, and he said maybe. After another long wait and elevator music, Brian came on the phone. I told him my story of not getting the trk. # and that the package just might get here first. He said he could give me the trk. # and after a another long wait he came back and told me about the new guy in shipping but did give me the trk. #. I thanked him and immediately went on UPS website to check the arrival time and guess what. A shipping label has been generated but the package hasn`t left yet After being told last Thur. that I should have it tomorrow, Tues. and finding out today it has`t even left yet. I`m P*%#ed. I`d like to talk to someone on the phone about this. Anyone know who I could talk to about this ?:rant:

Sorry, my post was supposed to be a NEW thread. My mistake, I`m a little upset. Can a moderator move it ?
