If you're interested, this is how you put your SL55 in Dyno Mode.

Put key in, turn to position 1

Bring up the Odometer (left) trip odo (right) Pic. 1

Press reset peg 3 times rather quickly. You will hear a beep, and pic. 2 is what you'll see.

Press the UP arrow on the left side of the steering wheel TWICE and pic 3 will show.

You can now use the right side steering wheel buttons to turn the dyno mode on, off.

I know most of you know this already.. but those who don't

Mine is a 4.6 Stick-shift with Posi-Traction and a custom exhaust, up front we have a Pro-charger Supercharger with a triple-row intercooler and a Predator-Modified ECU with a 255 Litre Per Hour fuel pump and 42lb. injectors instead of the stock 18lb. units.

Truck puts down 310HP at the rear wheels on the dyno and is fun to drive.

Must run hi-test/93 octane and it pulls 10 lbs of boost. Redline is 6K.

Come get some.

No, I have been working, but I will try it this week-end.

Adam at EuroElites has my RennTech Software/Pulley....i.e. Stage 1 on the way......after installation and a few hundred break-in miles, I will dyno the car.......hoping for good numbers.

Common problem with the Titan. Many owners have broken their rearends too. Brakes are another soft spot as well. All in all the Titan is the best truck on the market hands down. I have owned every kind of truck that is one the market, the Titan beats them all in every category.
