Fastest 1st gen single turbo

Just out of curiosity...whats the fastest 1st generation truck with a single turbo. I am refering to a daily driver/work truck. Not something that is trailered to a 1/4 mile track. You know just your normal everyday driver.

Thanks

Look in my sig. I know that there is another member out there with an identical time, but I have yet to hear of anything faster.

14.36 @91mph is my fastest time yet. Hopefully next spring will be better.

Fastest or quickest?
I know Brian (KTA Cummins on the diesel-central forums) has run 107 mph with a heavier truck and #2 only.

That's enough mph to run a 12.7.
I have a feeling next year he will do better.
I'm sure there will be 12 second 1st gens soon.......... maybe even an 11 second by the end of next year, with a VE pump.

On edit; Brian does have twins.
