[QUOTE="rtmozingo, post: 1411317, member: 24616"] So back off the throttle a bit. The gen 1 - or any vehicle for that matter - will do similar things when traction is insufficient for pedal demand. My friend (who just won 3rd place in RaptoberX this year) has this happen in his supercharged Gen 1 if he's lazy with pedal control. Speaking from my experience, you probably need to air down quite a bit more. I thought 25psi was sufficient, but that's proven not nearly enough. You could also add weight to the bed, as the Gen 2 is extremely light in the back end and it makes maintaining traction difficult. There are certainly dead-zones, but comparing to supercharged 6.2s at the track, the Eco pulls harder in every scenario, even when boost is dropped. I've got several videos up comparing the trucks, and unless I missed something on my track metrics, the only times I got out-accelerated was when I couldn't get traction. [/QUOTE]
