I got a couple questions

My first question is does anybody have a twin turbo kit installed on your daily driver? My second question is really stupid but I've always wondered about this. I was watchin a car show and this guy started reving up his engine and the whole car was shaking, can a truck with a diesel engine do this?

1. Yes. I put 28000 miles on a twin turboed truck in the last 14 months.
2. Yes. The torque of even a stock Cummins will make it shake. However, as a rule of thumb, the less an engine shakes, the more HP it can make because it doesn't have the dangerous harmonics inside.

#1 --- We'll soon find out how long a 308K mile engine will run towing and driving about 40K a year
#2 --- Depends on how many rods are bent...again, we'll find out
