my 12.0 run was with a 175 shot and the stage 2 computer from DC. Much tire smoke on the street :-D .
yes its called the pillar. I'm not 100% sure on the LM1 data logger. But the setup ill have in a few weeks in my pillar is the stock oil temp, AFR Wideband and a AeroForce Interceptor so i can watch the IAT2, Knock Retard and Bottle Presure.
Speaking of which, does anyone know what the avg IAT temps are on the trucks?

Who would have a good nos kit for these trucks I have a all stock truck with 80,000 mils on it I never race it I baby the truck and how much do you think it would cost to put one in
Oh ok. Whats a IAT2? Knock Retard?
Not sure if anyone sells a complete kit for our trucks. But I just started out with a universal Zex kit, then added the "racers pack" to it and added a few other parts onto it. All together... $1300 plus another $500 for torrie to tune the truck. Installing it isnt that hard to do. Instructions are pretty straight forward, all you have to do is find everything on the truck that you need to tap into...ie, power sources, throttle body sensor, tech signal wire....all that stuff.
Intake Air Temperatures, its the temperature of the air in your intake manifold that is about to go into your engine. Idealy you want it to be as low as possible, if it gets to high it could cause knock retard. Knock retard is another term for detenation. 2 things could happen when you get this....A. the computer detects knock (detenation) and it will retard (take away) timing from the tune and lower your power.... or B...to put it simple, your
engine blows up..lol.
When i had my supercharged cobalt with meth injection, i was able to increase the timing to 25* and after 3 pulls on the highway (0-120kmh) my IAT2 temps were 149* with 0* knock....which was perfect. But with this truck, its a whole new ball game.
thats the basic kit that you need, i have the same one except its the "black out edition" You can run that perfectly fine but i highly recommend a Traction Control Window Switch, Purge System and a Bottle Heater.
Here are some pictures of my install (bottle is now turned 90* so the valve is facing the front)
Before you email torrie about the tune, talk to the tony from JTSVP...there is a sale going on the SCT Tuners right now.
