Attention: TDR Forum Junkies Was talking to a buisness owner the other day and told him I had not been for a ride in a new powerstroke and would like him to take me for a ride in one of his some day. He has three powerstrokes and not even sure how many dodge cummins. One of the services they do is add on a big hp kit from a famous manufacture to fords and dodges. I will not mention any names here. He had his wifes new powerstroke sitting there with the biggest hp kit installed {340hp} and said "Sure, lets take out this little horse. " We went for the ride and I complimented him about how it run. {I am polite} I ask him if he would like to go for a ride in my old dodge some time and he said sure. I stopped back later and picked him up. To make a long story shorter, he was astonished how fast the old truck run! When we got back to his shop, he called out the lead mechanic and told him to go for a ride with me. Mechanic jumped in and said "Whats it doing?" I said, "It is smoking a lot. " Well, he was likewise astonished. Just couldn't believe I was still running the stock turbo and putting out all that power. Now I'm afraid the cat is out of the bag and I may have the fastest truck in town. I am too old for this stuff of racing every kid with a hopped up 350. Should I hide my truck in the shop and just drive my town car till things cool down?"
Had to come back and add the most important part, wanted to thank all you fellows for the great advise I've got here!
