Thanks to everyone that has given the great advice on the slow 1/4 times on
my Vorteched R/T. I am running the S-Trim with the Vortech inline fuel
pump and FMU that I had removed from my 94 Dak Sport earlier this year.
Vortech claimed that the SC wouldn't work with the R/T due to the fact that
the computer would have to be recalibrated. When I installed the SC, to my
surprise...No Check Engine light. I was like COOL! Maybe it still needs
to be recalibrated anyway. But the truck isn't running the times that it
should. I recently, last week installed JBA's and had a local shop
fabricate a 2 1/2 inch head pipe into a 3 inch cat into a 3 inch Pro Flow
muffler. This should have allowed the SC to flow more air I thought. This
lead to a reduction in et of .26 sec and 1.3 mph. I am still expecting
more out of this combination. BTW I am running a CC R/T and it weighed in
at 4300 lbs on the money with a 1/4 tank of gas and me inside. With this
information I calculated a minimum HP to achieve 95.3 mph at 287.7 at the
rear wheels. I don't kow where to go from here. People were saying that I
need to tune in the Vortech. Well, how does one do this?
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Is my next move a TB
stage II? Computer? Or Injectors? Or something else?
