NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Thanks for the info. I looked at the site and all I saw was stuff for actually tuning it yourself, which I most certainly know is easy to fuck up. Would be interesting to get a before and after dyno run. Your fuel mileage increase I'll definitely be interested to see. I'm currently getting about 13-14mpg and that is not what I thought I'd be getting with this truck

 

I'm in the same boat. Like 220miles to a tank, but I'm running full bolt ons. No cats. If my mpg goes up I'll be really impressed. Moreso looking to gain some ponies and tq with intake and header back exhaust.

 

I'm about the same, without any added weight (yet). Must be my driving style. It "should" increase fuel mileage. Most OEM tunes run a bit rich, safer for the engine, I guess it depends where in the rev range the extra power comes on. If its linear that'd be great, less gas for more speed, if its only at the top of the range that's not so useful on a daily basis

 

It's definitely linear/through the whole range as they have control over timing, fuel, and other variables keeping the factory safeguards in place.

 

Very cool. Gonna look more into it, and look forward to your impressions of it vs value

 

Damn

 

Just changed my rear shocks and ground down my flip kit...

New shocks are night and day difference

 

Hey guys, I need some advice on what UCA to go with for my mid travel setup before the Black Friday deals are all gone. A vendor was trying to sell me hard on the new Icon Dela Joint UCA's since they would have less maitenance and would make no noise. But it's not a true Uniball... and I was never really sold on Icon products.

Total Chaos Uniball - $616 w/BF Deal

Icon Delta Joint - $719 w/BF Deal

Camburg, or something else?

Will be ran with extended travel Foxes or Kings once I decide which brand to go with. (Another dilema)

Thanks!!

 

Uniballs are much stronger but sometimes do make noise. But personally I'd go with the total chaos ones.

Just ordered the total chaos set, $616 with free shipping seemed like a decent deal.

 

Ok, if you were going to get a large suv to tow a trailer would you get
Tahoe/Denali
Lx460
Sequoia
Armada/qx80
Or?
Needs to haul a fairly big trailer so Lexus my not do it.

Sorry no fords
Asking for a friend

 

2000s duramax chevy
Or the everlasting 12v cummins

 

Playday up Wilkinson with the middle kid yesterday.



@McMash I didnt ask If you made it up Wilkinson or Evans creek since they are all a stones throw away. When you made the cross county trek the other day.

 

Define fairly big trailer. Are we talking travel trailer, toy hauler, car trailer? Travel trailers are really light these days and don't require nearly the muscle to move.

 

Get a deezol, totally worth it. And yes, what kind/how much weight are we talking? Also new vehicle? New duramax's are great, cummins are meh. Engines are good but everything else around them will go wrong.

 

FTFY.

Diesel Cheby

 

sUV not pickup.

 

Ok, no dodge or ford, suv not pickup, friends wife doesn’t like stinky diesels.

 

Prolly cpo, trailer about 5k or so , maybe 6k loaded. Friend wants many horsepowers because tired of going over passes slow.
Just discovered Tahoe’s have pussy ass engines. : (
Btw, friend will likely keep his Taco for funmobile. Maybe turn it into a crawler, but that would be a few years off.
