What have you guys with the 8 spd. and 3.92s RCSB on stock 33" tires run at the track stock? With a tune? Just curious on what the average time and mph is?

My best time with stock tires and tune was a 13.8 or 13.9 I think. After a while I installed a catch can, fan delete, 180 t-stat, 305-50-20 Nitto tires and a lot of cold air and ran a 13.4 at 99mph.

I am never going to hook on these stock SRAs but I would have thought the trap speed would be higher? Wonder if you had a head wind that night?

Thanks for the response. I have all of what you listed minus the thermostat. Not going to change that for awhile at least.

Have seen a few run 13.7 or even better majority run high 13's. Depends on DA and if they can roll into it keeping the tires on the ground. Add a intake, muffler, remove the clutch fan and thermostats have had some run 13.3-13.4

Regardless it should run 13's

About what I figured. I'm hoping for about a 13.6@101mph or so. I may buy some 275/55/20 general grabber uhp this weekend to help.

With a tune. DA was fairly high IIRC.

Ok, well at least that is about what I am hoping for. I can already pull a 2014 R/T Charger on the highway so I guess I trap around 101-102mph roughly.

Lol ya. There was some serious Forrest fires that cased brutal air.

Go 550km East to Gimli MB and race at 700ft above sea level.

If I remember correctly there was a bit of headwind that day. My truck is set up a bit different now. Kinda wish I left it alone.

My truck is a 2014 R/T and when I bought the truck it had a K&N intake and Flowmaster exhaust but I know it's not tuned for it so I don't really count it...lol

My ET was 13.95 and Trap speed was 98.03

Are you talking about the change to lift/level vs the previously lowered?

Trust me you don't need a tune for intake and exhaust. The PCM will make up the very small gains you received. That's a good time for a stock truck. Thanks for the response!

Well my point was the ECM will always revert as close to stack as it can if it's not tuned for the greater airflow, so adding those parts don't really add any power unless the tune is compensated for it. I don't doubt they help a little bit but I would impressed if they added more than a .5 mph to the trap speed or .2 off the et...lol

No problem! :favorites13:
