"I don't wanna hit your truck dude". Evidently it likes to hop around on boosted launches. Independent front suspension FTL.

I like those tremors. What is the weight difference on one of those compared to an Ecopoop fx4 super crew?

Not sure about the weight on a super crew but everything I read said the Tremors come in about 4800lbs dry. Makes sense seeing as how my old 03 Lightning weighed in at 4700. How are you liking that T-4 tune? I'm deciding between SSI and MPT.

Hammer should be in here in a minute, with a video of a Ecoboost losing to a 6.2.

Sticker was 39K, got em down to 34K. It's an awesome truck but I've never driven something needing a tune so badly. There's plenty of em on Autotrader but for like 40-42K.

That's what I'm hoping for since there's 4 door 2WD guys running low 13s tune only. Traction is going to be the deciding factor since it wheelhops like ******* king kong is jumping up and down in my bed.

Get a nice CAI, 4" exhaust, good tune it'll see 11s theres a super crew running 12.10s so 11s are in the pocket!

The T4 tune is good. They have a newer T5 set of tunes that are supposedly better. I have a 87 and 93 octane tune and between the two you can really feel the difference on the 93 octane but with such a huge tank you feel it more at the pump. I'll probably upgrade to the t5.

I don't know if you noticed this or not, but people on the truck boards are, well, weird.
