Mods
ESS G3 supercharger 11psi
GT 350 manifold and 87mm tb
LTH catted long tubes
1050x injectors and vmp bap
Tuned by OZ tuning
E30 for fuel...
Doing 1050id injectors and vmp boost a pump. Should be good for 730 rwhp on e85. I could do return fuel system an make 900-1000. But I’ll never do that
The 18+ 5.0's are pretty stout with basic bolt ons. My crew cab 4x4 3.55 gear runs 12.5 @ 110 with just a mustang intake, off road y-pipe, PMAS cai and oz tune.
Wish they would have done a track time.
Still don’t understand their acceleration numbers. GT500 is ahead by .3 at 100mph and nearly 4 secs at 150. But they get only tenth difference in 1/4???? Which is 130 plus mph mark.
Calories in calories out!! Simple
One thing that helped me tremendously was weighing my food. You just need to do it for a week or so. Then you can get an idea of how many calories a certain size has. Stay away from dressings and condiments. Most are full of sugar.
My diet is basically if it don't come from a momma or grown don't eat it. Shop the outside aisle's of the grocery store!!
Workout!!! Muscle burns calories throughout the day while recovering. If your older than 30 get your testosterone checked. If its low go on TRT. No shame on going on TRT ...
It’s tq management killing the mph. There’s a tune cat delete gt 500 that ran 3 mph faster in track mode launching off idle and paddle shifting. Drag mode still has ton of tq management.
What’s crazy is from a roll in 2wd I can stay with cars that trap 90/91 in the 1/8. 4wd takes a little more power out of it and my truck Really needs a little better gear for racing purpose.
It was leveled on 295/60/20 ridge grappler. It trapped nearly 7 mph less with the bigger tires and leveling kit. In the 1/8 that's a pretty difference. I did add a mustang intake in between those so probably would have been just 4 or 5 mph difference.
I run e85 all the time the low end torque...
