We started on 87 and added timing until there was spark knock, then backed it off a bit. It still made quite the difference but I decided the next day that I wanted to go for 93 and see what I could squeeze out haha.
My 98 k2500 is nothing special by any means, but I was 100% surprised in the potential of that truck with just a tune. Granted, it already has a true dual exhaust and CAI, but getting it live tuned on 93 octane you could almost feel it pull harder with every degree of timing he added at WOT...
It'll be alright. I'm in the process of a 96 7.3 F-350 dually build to tow all my toys with, the Chevy is gonna be my weekend cruiser. Call me a child if you want but I'm just trying to get more noise without just going open headers haha
Did all trucks come with 2.75"? I measured mine with a caliper just for ***** and giggles and it was a 3" pipe. Unless someone changed it before my grandpa bought the truck
I was surprised when I first saw that. I was laying under the truck one day looking at something and realized it went from the 3" head pipes into the cats, then from the cats back it was 2 1/2" for a few feet then into 2 1/4" tailpipes. Talk about being necked down.
Hey all, I'm new to the forums here. I have a 1998 K2500 with the 7.4L and 4L80e. Currently all it has is a CAI, true dual cat-back 2 1/4" straight pipes, and a custom 93 octane tune that was live-tuned using HPtuners. The exhaust is raspy as can be and I'm about tired of it (it was like that...
