    Haha nice. Go check out the 4.8 torqstorm tune posted yesterday. Talk about a tune set to maximum destruction. Not sure if the engine or trans will fail first.

    p.s. If kingtal0n told me that water was wet, or the sky was blue, I'd still have to go check.

    That 1.0 eq at boost is going to run great for about 5 seconds. The probably stock trans needs some line pressure and torque management. Most stock trans cammed trucks i do get 50% tq management and 96psi line pressure at wot. Seems like the clutches fail long before the hard parts start to break.

    What'd they do just send it without incrementing the engine load and adjusting? Why the 2.0 EQ?

    That guy posted on here several times how good he was a math and he loved math, he was a "math guy" but ironically his own tune file made absolutely no mathematical sense.

    He tried to argue the definition of VE. I told him there's no way that his VE table represented to actual volumetric efficiency of any engine. The guy was just completely full of shit.

    He claimed that he was an artist, if you'll recall. Body and mind merged into a beam of light, and he outgrew our simple understanding when he transcended to a higher plane of existence. VE? It's just a fueling table when seen through the third eye. The universe was his canvas, and the wideband his paint brush.

    His PCV and timing driven crank oscillation theorys were out there. He claimed many times a cold air intake would cause an engine to fail because it would not allow 2 in/hg of crankcase vacuum at WOT.

    Also claimed that a timing table should never have the same values in two consecutive cells.

    The guys advice is downright terrible and would never follow any of it.

    He was embarrassingly wrong about so many things and would dig his heels in and try to explain why he was right and everyone else, conventional wisdom, etc. was wrong. He was the minister of misinformation.
