LBZ: lope tune??

[snowman]

I know it's probably been asked before, but i couldn't find any info on it. I was just curious about all these guys putting lope tunes on there trucks. Is it hard on the engine or any other parts?? Thanks

I have been wondering this same thing. And also what is the point of it?

Just sounds cool. From what I understand it's hard on the motor, and not a good idea to drive with.

Thats what i was wondering. Whats it hard on??? The whole engine or ????

 

[cdbright]

you can make it lope at a certain rpm, so keep it at idle only??????

i think it just cycles the injectors? but i am not certain on that, i have seen a video on here back a year or so that had it.

It spikes fuel pressure, kinda like you patting your foot on the throttle just more consistent. I would think it would be hard on u-joints while in gear. The truck rocks back and forth pretty good. It also uses a lot more fuel while loping as well. if you do it make sure you put it on a dsp switch cause it gets annoying fast, trust me. But it sure does get attention. lol

i'm not doing it, was just curious. Well maybe try it once, they put it back to the way it was!!
