Poor Powerstroke

[jrandol]

I stopped at my usual fuel place this evening on the way home from work, filled her good and full and gave her some of her favorite fuel additive. Was feeling saucy so I turned on the box (its set for kill all the time now ) got on I-25 north and some guy in a New Centurion Dually was slowly coming up behind me and I could tell he thought he would embarrass the little 6 cylinder. I sent a few smoke signals and he sped up. Let him get right next to me and could tell he was givin it all she had. Funny thing was I was just running without juice from the box, it hadnt kicked in! Boost was only about 6 pounds, I Laid down on the throttle to say bye-bye, gave him a huge puff of smoke to cough on and in a blink of an eye he was gone. I backed out of it and let him catch up, did it to him 3 times and then he backed off and ran right at 70 and would not even look over at me. It was hilarious!! He thought he was big stuff but the little 6 piper walked away from him like it was a cake walk. Boy I am glad I didnt buy a Powerjoke!

Woo Hoo, Looks like you had some fun .



Bye the way, thanks for the tips on my thread, I made some changes already and am doing some stage 1 injectors on Friday. It isn't going to be a race machine like yours is but by the feel of things already I think I can handle some of your light stuff, maybe a little caulky too soon but I ain't afraid of the powerstrokes right now

Had the same thing happen to me this morning on the way to work!!



Merging on the freeway at about 5 in the morning, hardly any traffic and I get the smoke signals from a 5" pipped Powerstroke in front of me sooooo... ... crank the box up and he must have been expecting it because we were racing before I could get next to him..... at about 90 I was next to him and after about 100 he was slowly falling back and by about 110 he was all done... .







After we slowed down he slowly pulled up beside me, just far enough to see my gauges and then he slowed down and got behind me... . right where a ford belongs!!!
