Well my friend had a GTech/ Pro and I had a 2001 D/A, CC, 4X4, Short bed, 265 tires. So we went and played with a couple runs. It was 34 degrees and cloudy so I ran two passes to get these numbers.

0 to 60 7.5 sec
15.47 sec 1/4 mile
94.5 mph

0 to 60 7.7 sec
15.88 sec 1/4 mile
91.3 mph

I tried a third run but had to abort, due to traffic. I ran all the runs in tow/haul because I like the way the transmission hooks up stronger. Hope this helps with a little more information for all you diesel heads.

The mph on the 1st run seems quite high but the rest looks comparable to what has been posted by others. Was that in 2 wheel drive? All the runs by the edge trucks that are in the 14's seem to take off in 4 wheel drive. How does the low end feel, seems most think the predator makes its power up high instead of down low, do you have that impression? I really like the way the power comes on with the predator, but I have a 6 speed so that makes a difference. Lately I have been using the 60 hp program just because it is smoother to drive and I get better mileage. Good runs and good info, thanks. smile.gif

All runs were in 2 wheel drive and brake torque up to about 1,200 to 1,400 rpm range. It seems to pull good through the entire rpm range but if I am in 5th on the highway playing from low to high rpm it starts around 1,600 to 1,700 for the most power. This is fine with me because I pull around 2,000 rpm to 2,100 rpm. I also had defueling at most all shift points. I hate that aspect, but I think they all do it.
