I should be landing at SEA-TAC around 5pm on the 20th


So, I guess I won't be making it guys. Have fun and good luck to whoever dyno's and/or runs down the strip.

I went... my truck did awful haha.

495hp and a 14.1 @ 102.

TC was locking up at the line and causing my 1/8 times to be terrible, had the trap speed of a low 13 second run but the tuning/transmission issues were killing me.
Doing a compression test tonight to see if ive got reason to only be at 500hp....should be more
