Amazing they lasted that long. I bet the relief valve is sacked out too! LOL

Imagine the pressures running through that truck day after day after day after day??????

The funny thing is they'll cover it under warranty...........tick...tick...tick...tick.... (getting under the desk for the best but safest view......' cause this will be getting ugly)

Running One pressure box.....fun
Running Two Pressure boxes.....ticking time bomb
Blowing Four Injectors to hell and back due to driving a ticking time bomb, and then praying for warranty coverage.....PRICELESS.

They might....but the real question is...SHOULD THEY?

In my opinion...there is no other way the injectors/motor were damaged than the user's extreme negligence. I am real glad that a portion of the "price" I paid for my truck "might" cover this "earl" manuever.

I guess it is kinda like wellfare...lol.

my brother is a diesel mechanic so he knows what it all it can handle, plus the chips are not turned on all the way. Only running 80 over not 100 like he could be. its on a toggle switch

Remember the mantra...

"BOMB it and break it, don't expect DCX to take it"


It's kind of like isurance fraud, when there are numerous amounts of people doing it, the cost of insurance will rise. So if everyone screws over DCX, they would inturn raise the cost of thier products. My $.02...
