i was curious what/how that thing worked and how it determined the numbers.
seems like maths. I'm avarage with maths.
I'd rather a real world dyno number than some wizardry.
no one believes the on board fuel mileage calculations on the truck, same goes for this really neat box of magic. but its still cool.
I'd rather save my money on a tailgate damper mod and put it towards this. there's alot more to talk about while drinking beers.
Yeah, the number comes from a PID on the truck. It’s pretty cool. It is good for relative comparison from before and after pulls. I really only use that for the extra gauges for things such as AFR and boost.

Exactly what I use it for too. It's cool and fun and all and knowing how much boost you are making is nice to know at times.

Well I've been going to Bradenton for 45 years. That would be my first choice. First time I went there was on an RD 400. Running 11s with a wheelie bar. And my next ride was 340 duster All mopar parts. It was the low 12-second car. Next was a 440 6 pack Dodge charger. We'll have to do it on a Thursday night test and tune. I'll introduce you to my son he tunes Fords for a living. He's got a twin turbo 5.0 mustang he just got back together.
Sounds good, my first drag race was at Moroso, also an RD 400 Daytona.. I raced the snowbird nationals (Bradenton) there in 2004 on a Susuki GSX R1000 just say when..this will be for money, one race no re runs and you must drive..
Regards

Tim the seats look awesome, I did not expect that. I was thinking it would look like some go kart , hard shell thingy! Super fine job with your build, and I see this ain’t your “first rodeo”

Enough of the bench racing for now. It's quiet pit a muffler on it it's not the entire exhaust system but a muffler. I would say for just bolting it down and no tune it's got to have at least 30 more horsepower enough where I'm afraid to twist it very hard without having it tuned. So it's going to have to sit until I have it turned. My kid said sometime this week. I'll do a video of the dyno tune. whilr it's at the shop I'll get the rest of the exhaust on, on a rack. Tire d of laying on my back. Too old for that.
You O.K. ?

Why do you think there's something wrong. No absolutely nothing. I'm pretty happy I got my truck running. That's about it.
Read your bench racing post, I think we are done here...

Love to, but read his bench racing thread with the 30 HP muffler bolt on... the paragraph sounds like a mentation problem..

I just read that. A 30 horsepower muffler?

Bummer. It would have been cool to see two fast Rangers go head to head. Maybe we can see some time slips? A 12 second, or less, four cylinder mid-sized truck would be awesome.
