I had a best of 10.1 A/F with my second run being a 9.4! Talk about running rich! I'm sure with a better tune it will be over 400 no problem. The good news is DTP told me in 5 weeks they will have the software for the Lightning chips in. So I can get some local custom tuning done. That should add some good numbers. Now lets see what she pulls at the track on saturday. I know the truck is a 400/500 club member just gotta get that chip reburnt.

What is 8.6HP anyways, you are basically there. Dyno variance, heat/humidity, etc.
Who did your current tune? Obviously you will sqeeze some even more impressive #'s after you lean it out a bit.

PS Those guys are really cool and they know what they are doing.
Also, Frank is the taller one with the blonde long hair.
