60'ft times how to?

I need to improve my 60ft times on my 01 truck. I am launching with 10 psi of boost in 4x4 and the truck wont spin the tires is torque mgt limiting the power.

60ft 2.220
102.77 mph
et 13.781

You must have some torque management problems, but it could also be that you just need to leave with more boost. Try leaving around 18psi and see what that gets you. I could run a 2.0 60ft on my stock input shaft when my truck was around 300hp. That was launching at 10psi. If your turbo isnt lit when you leave you are hurting yourself. Mine launches hard at 18-20psi now, but i havent been back to the strip to see what my 60ft's are. Im guessing 1.8's.

Must be a torque management thing then. Im not sure what all eliminates it since i dont mess with 24v's much, but get that figured out and it should be a lot better on the launch.

A lot of people use this:

I have heard from some that the smarty doesent work too well with an auto trans, but by using the BD Rad, you dont have to mess with the smarty. The BD RAD is $225
