LakevilleSSEi is on a distinguished road

Duffer is 100% correct.

Only differences in his truck vs mine is that he has a K&N and I have a Common Rail 24 Valve.....where as he has the normal 24 Valve Cummins.

With just exhaust and a Banks Six-Gun tuner a friend of mine ran a 13.9 with his 2005 F250 Superduty. Absolutely amazing stuff.

A more accurate statement would be a lot more power than an N/A Gas motor. I can tune my car to get gains of 50HP & 75lb/ft realistically without any mods at all. These gains are for nearly the entire powerband as well, not peak numbers like some cars get.

I'm holding off on mods till atleast next summer, maybe a lil longer due to having a good warranty still.. But exhaust, chip, etc will take this lil dub a long way into the 13'*...

But yes, diesels are ridiculously easy to get power out of, it'* just using it
