I have read more threads about you guy's hitting this for boost and this for egt's and top speed. I'm am totally miffed as to how, because when I go out and try that it's like, wow what the. You guys must really have an area to run, because I can easily hit more than I need to in a matter of 7 to 8 secs Maybe I'm getting to old for this bombing stuff. Just curious as to what you are all doing. Smoke will give me away for at least a 1/4 mile, and the sound will also be a dead giveaway. Have to find a track to run it hard one time, or dyno. Any help?

 

plenty of backroads in WI to play on.

 

Usaually do all my reckless driving on the interstate.



















Plz do not take me seriously!

 

i have a spur off of the interstate by my house thats two lanes each way with a large grass median, and the traffic on it at night is next to none, so even tho i may not be legal when breaking the speedlimit, i am safe as i try not to do any WOT testing when cars are near.

when on the highway i may blurp the throttle enough to blow a little smoke or speed up 10mph then let off if i wanna show off for another cummins, or any diesel owner for that fact. but ive grown up a bit after getting some tickets a while back in my ford lightning

 

As my buddies would tell me... drop a set... and live a little , surely theres somewhere you can let 'er run.

 

Just be carefull out there guys. I'm not your mother, but take into account time of day, kids, traffic, weather.

Just be carefull out there.

Enough said.

I've got a stretch of road behind my house that is fairly untravelled that I go and "test" on. That or I go out to my boss's place cause the road in front of him isn't used at all. That's where I do my top end runs.

 

I've found a long staight dead end road I like. Its about a mile long. Cruise along and let the cummins scare any wildlife away then its playtime =P Got a 1/4 measured out approximately, now I just need a marker for the 1/8.

The main time I get to use my power is for passing and on-ramps: its all about passing power =P I'm a pretty conservative driver 95% of the time, but enjoy getting the truck sideways every now and then
