    tuned the new truck!

    wow. this thing is unreal!

    i got an SCT with some new tunes from Eric at innovative. He still has one more for me to try out but the one he sent me is just retarded fast.

    dpf delete, intake and tuner for $1700 and this thing feels like a low 13 already. Cant wait to get it on the dyno on the 8th!

    i was looking at spartan originally just because i havent heard anything from the guys over at innovative till about a week or 2 ago

    innovative tuned my 6 leaker and did an awesome job not to mention that their customer service is amazing. i have received emails from eric before at 6pm on a sunday night...so thats 9pm back there.. they are always polite and helpful. i heard nightmares about spartan, i guess the kid that owns it is like 21 years old and does not really know how to run a business yet?

    the tune eric sent me, according to him, has hit at least 500 everytime it has gone to dyno, and he has seen up to 520 with it. he said there is a lot more power on the table but it gets to a point you can not street drive them lol. he has another tune he is just putting the finishing tweaks on that he can only flash locally and is getting it uploaded to send via email. he is anticipating that one to be somewhere between 540 and 570 iirc from my conversation with ted. i cant wait to see where the technolgy will go with these trucks in like a year or 2.

    550hp for $1700...i love common rails

    ive seen a few of these trucks dyno, they vary considerably for some reason. none of them had eric's stuff..they were all spartan. but the exact same tune in a different truck ran differently..im guessing with eric at the controls, there should be more consistency...ive heard that 500 should be an easy mark , so make over 500 and ill buy one the next day!!

    i cant wait to see that on the dyno...

    only reason you have only seen spartan on 6.4L until like a couple of weeks ago because the software was not available to Eric to tune the SCT's on the 6.4L.... but all that will change.... i bet you will see more SCT on truks then spartan within 6 months...

    Eric has great customer service and a great product... that cant be said about Matt with spartan
