    NC and VA have a much more affordable cost of living compared to most of the rest of the country. I think VA is a very pretty state, however, their traffic enforcement is ridiculous. Radar dectors are illegal. Speed limits are unrealistic, more traffic laws with higher penalities, and in my experience many of cops are rude. I'm not saying NC is like the Autobahn... But comparing the two is like East and West Germany back in the 1980's

    I got mine. Loaded and installed late last night. Confirmed that the truck fires up again. Haven't romped on it yet.

    Sorry @bobsuruncle @tblizzard .... I'm leaving the green room.

    Spent 20 minutes driving on the OVtune software.

    Feels smoother across powerband and more responsive (throttle). If you ever sat in a turbo car and felt turbo lag.... my truck now feels "less laggy" compared to stock software.

    All my other variables are unknown for now (fuel consumption, increased HP, AFR, etc)

    Hey guys, I just the URD Long tube equal length headers, Y pipe, and 3" catback put on a few weeks ago and the exhaust smells pretty bad, and my gas mileage is a little worse. I think the air fuel ratio is pretty rich. I know this is probably a stupid question, but the handheld tuner would be able to fix my issues and hopefully get me some more power?

    No cats here. I don't smell a thing even with the axle dump. :notsure: not even tuned yet.

    I'm guessing your check engine light is on? Afr will be rich anytime the cel is on. Are you currently using a O2 sim? If you want to spend $500+ then this is a way to fix that and make some gains that compliment your bolt-ons.

    Dunno, i hated my truck NA with headers, ypipe, and 3" exhaust. It felt like i was driving a civic. The torque curve musta shifted bigtime, it felt gutless.

    I immediately bought the supercharger.

    I do have the O2 simulators so I don’t have a CEL. Would the simulators have anything to do with it? The exhaust smells quite strong

    The simulators should be tricking the ECU that everything is still there and running normal.
