I bought my first titan when I was 17 back in 07, it was an 04 and I loved it, had it for a few years then traded it in on a new silverado vortec max. That was a nice truck but had nothing for power on the titan. Since then I've had an old 01 frontier which was fun to beat around in but went back to a titan this year, a 2012 pro4x. I used to spend a lot of time on here when I had the first one but haven't been around much since I got the 2012. I duno if it was just the fact I was a little kid when I had my first one but it seemed to be twice as fast as the new one. I had a superchips cortex and kn intake with saw coil overs and a body lift on 295/70r18 trail grapplers and I still feel like power wise it would do circles around the new one with a aem intake and bdgt. I'm running on stock tires. Is this all in my head or did they do something to give the newer ones less power even though the numbers look better?
Was your first titan an xe kc? I believe that the hp rating went up but you my have gotten a lot heaver pro 4x. My truck is older and doesn't have as many bells and whistles. It make her a lot liter. 0-60 6.1 1/4 mile 14.2. that's just with uprev cai and catback.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the Drive by wire is tuned differently on the newer ones. I don't know if the 04's had the WOT restriction like the later models do.
Some people I believe thought the early models were to jumpy off the line.
I thought it was just because the Titan line was getting older? I remember the same thing, my 04 was a beast and fast, but my 12 doesn't seem to be as much of a beast. It's still plenty powerful and I'm getting older, so I'm not hot-rodding around as much.
Any way, I thought it was just me. Maybe not. Maybe the newer T's are not as fast?
I've got an 04 and it had WOT on it. But it's also light. No extra bells and whistles and been across scales and it was around 5200, 220 of that me. Can't remember exact weight. Ill be doing another scrap haul soon and see. But maybe its that. A weight issue? I know mine will fly but its to be expected because its a Titan.
