I've got a few numbers here for anyone interested. First, this weekend at the track I ran a 15.29 in my highest setting (15.22 is my best so far). I then put it in the stock position to see what kind of a difference the chip was making and ran a 17.35. I guess the chip helps out a little bit, lol! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Also, I towed a lifeboat for about 4 hours today and have some readings off of it. This is what I was pulling:

The boat weighs 3500lbs. and the trailer is aobut 1600lbs.

These were my readings while towing the boat in my highest setting (140hp) about an hour into the trip:

Going up steep bridges that went over the Mississippi and Intracoastal Waterway, I was able to keep it at 65mph without going over 1100deg., and the Intracoastal bridge is pretty friggin' tall and steep.

These readings are on the way back with just the trailer:

No problems at all towing that small load in my highest setting with the DI chip. I'm going to get my gooseneck hitch put in sometime next month to pull our 40' trailer. Then we'll see where I need to put the chip with a 28,000lb. gross weight!

It should look like this:

(url=http://community.webshots.com/user/qtrhorse13]web page[/url)

Replace the ( & ) with [ & ] and it will work. That is a Webshots page your trying to copy, correct? If your in Webshots, you need to use the community link, not your logged on link.

Like what? And I saw that B-day cake by your name. Does that means it's your B-day? If so, have a good one!

No, we cannot post pictures directly to a thread. They need to be on Webshots, Dieselstop photos page or something similar. You need to use the community link. No one can see your logged on link. Click community link and then copy that link. After that, you can use the links in the community link.
