Well Scottsbro is in Houston so that aint gonna happen until prolly May. Now if you mean our trucks as in wife n I.... That prolly wont happen either. I just couldnt live with myself after dusting the little guy. My truck doesnt have that dreaded shift lag from 3rd to 4th. Oh, and the Cortex changes your shift points too..

What would you estimate the power-to-weight ratio of your 2 trucks (yours and Sandi's) to be? They are only 1.6L difference, but just how fast and how much air can you put into Sandi's 4.0L?
And, has she embarrassed you on the freeway?

someone has done the math. tc3 maybe. the math says she should stomp me blower or not. But my butt says no way. My truck has so much low end torque I have to be carefull at stop lights or people think I am showing off/challenging them. One day we'll run em.
yea it can record as well as the g tech can, and if my g tech was true then i would have the fastest n/a fronty with a 14.5 1/4 mile time..lol

I've used other performance programmers (Diablo, SCT, etc) and have found that the greatest benefit is usually to the transmission shift qualities rather than the slight horsepower gains. I contacted Superchips and, alas, this unit does absolutely nothing to help the Nissan slushbox. I'll have to pass.
I agree. I don't find the engine being under pepped but the auto trans is very "squishy".
I think a trans shift controller would be more useful.

My shift points have def changed. Quick, firm, at 80 mph you barely hit the gas and it downshifts and puts you in your seat.....
