Mike,
Have you ever ran N20 during a pull?

No, I don't need nitrous. The Aurora 5000 turbo cleans up the fuel I have from programming, 20% over honed injectors and CP3 fuel feed mods. At IRP I split an intercooler boot & lost boost in the pulloff.

Once we finish the 7.3 injectors and a real VP44 everyone will be squeeling for rules changes.

Nitous? In pulling? I dont think that would be a good idea for most guys. I heard a rumor that Tomac was a nitrous user in several events. He says he did not, so that settles that. Now, the burden is on the accusers.

well you know what they say when it comes to accusations, the cummins boys are getting a bit desperate, and once the aftermarket has more to market, accusations will get worse

I have seen Mike pull here in Michgan many times. As much as I would like to say he is running nitrous I don't think he does. Although it could be easily done with the techs in the TTPA. I was once an accuser. But now I believe the dmax is a strong puller in the street class. Still unknown what it is capable of in the bigger classes. I wonder what Tomacs truck would be like if it was a manual vs. allison. Better or worse??

I hope no one misread my post but I think a couple did.
I just asked if he had ever ran it during a pull.
I know he doesnt run it on a regular basis to pull with and we all know the duramaxes are definitely holding their own pulling.

I just wanted to know what it was like and how the engine acted.

On another note:
Is anyone wastegating the Aurora 5000 yet?

Dan,
Are you referring to the wastegating Aurora thing?

No I was referring to the nitrous. I have a kit and was going to put it on my truck before I sold it. I would like to know how it would work on a 3rd gen puller.
