Great story Scotty. I just posted a similar short story on the Performance forum about my first PSD kill since I really started adding a few bombs to my truck. I think the Ford guy I beat must have had the same attitude as your Dmax driver, thinking he would easily spank "that old Dodge". What a tasty surprise they both got. I can't wait to do more to the truck now.

I had one of the newest athletes in the sport with me. Scott Cummine.
He is doing very well and making some scarey gains.

I've suprised many a high performance car on the highway with a stab of the pedal only to have them back off because they couldn't get by.

Greenworks schooled some Hemi guys too with his unit before the injectors and turbo. With just the comp on he was walking away from those 345Hp boys with ease. That took some air out of those 20" rims I tell ya.. When you say, "Ahh, maybe 300Hp right now" to them, they giggle. But its when you have double the torque, they cry..

From a dead stop, I am brutal. Get close to us in 3rd or even better 4th gear, you better have more than 700 ft-lbs. ( I still like the look on that kids face though... )

And for the V-8's... How much have you spent so far? I bet my upgrades are less than your truck payment..LOL....

This year should be decent for the DMX.
Turbo from ATS
Twins From IdahoCTD
DTT Stage2 Trans and new XX% T/C
And some fuel.

Although, I do miss the smoke, 50 PSI sounds really good (and makes people you pass do a real double take)

Oil stays cleaner too.

Yep, Tomac is running 12 flat in the 1/4 with his new turbo and kennedy 20% injectors along with a fully bombed tranny and a 3 box stack. But he has more in the turbo alone than I have in my complete 500hp combo not counting transmissions. Wonder why the ATS turbos are 4000.00 each? And has anyone heard how much those oversize injectors from Kennedy diesel are running for the maxipad boys?

I would love to see that rig man.. wow... That extra boost would definitely keep the oil clean...LOL... Thats all those trucks needed was more air. I am still dumbfounded how all these big V8 fuel boxes do nothing for wastegate control. If it weren't for Juicegrips.....

I think year by year will be leaps and bounds on the Dmax front with the amount of technology out there. And now the heavy hitters from the CTD crowd are wading in with some new products.

Its all good..

Well, if i ever get off my *** one day.
How far is Lacombe from Calg/ Lethbridge or?

I gotta get out more..... I gotta get back to DTT for the new stuff.

And then install the new intercooler (after i finish testing the stocker)

blah blah blah.. there are times when there is less money than more time allows spending!

Probably farther than you want to treck...LOL.. From Calgary about 1.5 hours north, but I am down that way enough and we could have a DTR meet there easy.

New intercooler eh?? I thought the year you had was full aluminum? Or is it flow that is the kicker??

That DTT stuff sounds pretty neat.

I can be in Calgary in 3 hours.

You must be close to edmonton then.

Let me know when something comes up

Next month i am back at DTT in Vancouver for the Convertor. By that time i will have the bigger CAC in.

Time to test out the Rattlestack/Twins/Trans/CAC and see what HP we get up to.

I am hoping for 375...... additional that is .. Fuel and Air only!

Nothing against NOS, but it can't be used when pulling 26K up the Salmo Creston at 65 MPH fully STACKED!
You'd run out of Bottle before STAGLEAP!

BANKS sent me one to Evaluate.... I am hoping for less pressure drop across the core and hopefully a 40F temp reduction.
