    buddy of mine put a bully dog in his 06 cummins--- he dialed it right up, the tranny lasted 3 or four runs.... he got warranty though!

    For those of you out there that think diesels are slow and are in the la crosse WI area. I would be happy to race. Just an F250 here nothing special

    Lol. The tranny's in those trucks are made for pulling, etc. The cummins turbo diesel are strong and good for the short spurt. That inline 6 is nasty. However, just not made for racing. Unless its got a ton of money poured into it, u dead in the water on that stretch of track. Stock LS1 could have trouble, but I'll take the slightly modded FTW.

    That depends on what you are trying to do to them. I have about $600 in mine and I will play. And my transmission is about the last thing im worried about

    well you haven't used it hard enough. with a programmer on it's highest setting, the transmission will go. it's just a matter of time.

    it's like putting 500 rwhp into an fbody with a stock drivetrain. if you never use the power, the rear diff will last forever. but if you get into it a few times, POP!

    I live in OK..... $600 invested 250's are everywhere (including my best friend's dad, he has an 08 he's touched up a bit) I can safely say been there done that. Ford, Dodge, Chevy....these rednecks around here, that's all they like to play in

    Half the vehicles at the drags are either big v8/v10 trucks or diesels...I just can't stand the atomic explosion of black smoke that clogs my bronchial tubes every time one races.....again, to each their own.

    Most of em do. They say they were just pulling a light trailer down the highway.....when the torque converter is shattered, and the bell housing has chunks of metal shoved through it..... But he(my uncle) just rolls his eyes and gets it done, more work for him means more commission

    Trust me its used hard enough Theres 14k or more behind it at least a couple times a week.

    Theres a huge difference between off the shelf tuners like banks and bully puppy. And hypertech. A custom tuned diesel like mine will out run and out last any of those

    600 in an 08 thats nothing. That tells me he is still running with the DPF and horsechit tuning. Of course you ran him

He got right up on my a** and so I slowed down more and more till I was at 40 mph then he tried to get around me and I punched it hahaha too many car lengths to count haha. And we he finally catches up he does the infamous ricer fly by.......

    14k is pretty respectable--- considering most new ford deisels can barely break 14k miles bone stock now.

    Thanks.

    It seems to be universally accepted so far. It would hang with a stock LS1 before. I just added a few goodies.

    should be fairly quick...


    i lowered an 04 chev 4x4 shorty a few years ago--- some loved it, and some couldn't get their head around the idea that not all 4x4's need to be 12 feet high with 44" boggers on it
