So I got the Looney tune a week ago and have been extremely pleased with it so far. I can't believe just how much more power was waiting to be unlocked in these 6.0's! As a matter of fact, I ran up on a truck almost identical to mine and noticed he had A-pillar gauges and he more than likely had some mods. So I instigated a friendly "street race" :icon_biggrin: Twice I got him to stand in it and I stayed neck and neck with him both times. So I flagged him over into a store and turns out he has a powermax turbo, bigger injectors, and a sct tuned by a pretty famous tuner over on powerstroke.org! He could not believe that I stayed with him with stock turbo and injectors :thumbsup: Just goes to show that tuning is EVERYTHING and Vivian's looney tune is GREAT!!! Any idea how much power over stock the looney is??

I believe the Looney is 140 rwhp. I've had the Looney for a while and have been really impressed. I'm about to order the Looney Wild DD as soon as I get a little more feedback from a buddy thats runnin' it. I've heard the shifts are a little high in the rpm range even at 1/2 throttle. BTW, do you have studs yet? If not, make sure you let the engine get up to operating temperature before you really give it hell. I heard somewhere that high hp tunes on cold engines are responsible for a lot of blown gaskets.

Thanks man. No I don't have studs yet. Thinkin I'm just gonna wait till I need it. Speaking of waiting till the truck warms up, sometimes in the morning time when I leave my house and the trans isn't warm it will slip on the 3rd to 4th shift. I talked to Vivian about it and she said the Looney is such a strong tune that I need to let the trans temp get to 100 degrees before driving. Just passing along the info

I've heard about trans shifting problems until warm, but I've never experienced them. I always try to let the engine warm up to 100* before I drive anyways. This lets the tranny warm up too.

I also run Looney by Vivian. I have had it for about 4 months now and am still impressed with it. It's decently clean. I have not heard of the Looney wild DD. Have to look that one up.

You'll have to call Vivian and talk to her to get the details on the Wild DD or the Wild Race. I don't think they are listed on the website yet.

Right on. Like talking with her anyways:lol:. Very good customer service.

 

[mwilbur516]

I don't think I've dealt with ANYONE or ANY COMPANY that even comes close to her customer service.

I called her on one of her days off (believe it was a Saturday). She not only answered, but made the sale and even e-mailed me a few times. Answered all of my questions. Don't know anyone else that would give up 1.5 hours of their personal time that they could be spending with their family. A+++ in my book.
