Holy mother of god diesel

[JZ_killa_t68]

A co-worker of mine showed me the dyno from his Dodge with a cummins turbo diesel...I know that diesels rock the world, but damn....397 hp and 2027 ft-lbs of tq! I wish I would've snapped a photo for proof...he said that he just had some other shit done to it that brought it up to the 3000 range.....and for those of you that know dodge, he's on his 3rd tranny (with supposedly $15k into his current one)

I'll see if I can get a pic of the dyno from him, it may be another 6 months before I see him again (I work field service, I may have met half of the people in my region, let alone in the entire U.S.)

hmm he should have a LOT more HP for the much torque

 

[duffer26]

mine did 232 HP and 460 TQ on the rollers and i was rolling over the 3000 rpm redline

 

[annoyingrob]

I want to se dyno charts to prove this. He would have to be hitting peak torque at 1000rpm, then dropping off HUGE to do that.

 

[wingman]

dude...pull the wool from over your eyes, diesels can make some big numbers but not the kind of numbers he told you. Unless he put a train engine in his truck there's no way in hell he's making 397/2027, the cummins just doesn't have enough cubes to spool a turbo at that kind of RPM and make those kind of numbers.

im calling BS, my friend made 500/800 and is almost at the end of the holset efficiency range, with propane injection to boot.

I'd also like to add that a majority of diesels are pretty shit when it comes to anything other than saving money in fuel costs plus smelling and sounding like shit.

Most americans I've seen talk about diesels seem to think that they are ALL teh shit, well, coming from a guy who lives in a country were diesels are everywhere, it's not true.

My friend did around 580/1400. Runs a 12.0 on 35" tires and a 4 inch lift.

he's got an aftermarket garret ball bearing
35 psi boost

I saw the dyno chart with my own 2 eyes, or I wouldn't believe it either. This guy has dropped some mad cash on his ride-he makes somewhere around 90K+ a year and lives with his folks (works field service, so is on the road for 12 days home for 2-no need for your own place in this line of work)

 

[duffer26]

um i can do over 35 with the stock holeset on my truck it is at the verry end of what it can do but it can do it
and here is a dino chart from my runs

Uh he hasnt posted that dyno chart yet that was duffer26's dyno chart from his runs...

And I also call BS on this....

 

[whudafux]

Lol, it's too late for me. I thought he posted that dyno chart. I actually would have sworn he posted it. Bed time for me.

 

[MassSupra89]

My friend was running over 50psi when he made 1400ft. lbs.
I don't see 2000 at 35psi.

 

[duffer26]

you need atleast twins and masive fuel upgrades to break the 1k mark and then it is for show

 

[MassSupra89]

No, twins are definetly not necessary, alot of fuel and tuning is though.

 

[Quin]

Call the guy up, have him scan or take a pic of the dyno sheet, game over
