I've been to a couple events, and have heard some cummins go by that sound almost like a gasser hitting a like with a big cam. At idle, it's like tapping the pedal. Can some one tell me how or what it is that sets the cummins to sound like this.

5 Inch exhaust (or stacks) and a lot of timing will make it sound funny.
