we dyno the tractor and the one thing that i did learn about deisels that a lot of people dont get is that the more water you inject.....the more HP to a point. We run 45 ounces in a 5 second run. Also depending on if you put the water before or after the charger is 50 hp. After is better....Didnt mean to get everyone all fired up. i do know a lot about deisels just need help on the trucks

To the OP, just build for power, smoke will follow. Not sure if it is the same on the tractors, but on these things. The supporting mods make all the difference.

Anyone know the specs on that truck that went 9.68?

i got stoped at a road block last night and the second cop only gave me a ticket cause i have the stack and said i have ilegally modified my exhaust. i was u think. The only reason he gave me that is cause i had my pull number on the window and the hitch in still. I hate that they pick on pullers. The first cop was like nice truck is it a diesel and i was like yea. I wasn't blowing smoke or anything. I keep it clean on the steet and only use it to get the tailgaters of my a**.

yea the second cop was a young one. He could have gotten me for tinted windows and my turn signals up front r not amber. I guess he let me off. but he still went after me cause i was a puller.

I've never had any problems and I live in a well populated area.
yeah i do ive gotten i 150 dollar smoke ticket, and on the flip side ive had cops say my truck is bad , or that my stack looks sweet. it just depends on the cop i guess. like i said i dont like the people that buy diesels just to blow smoke cause then cops start getting pissed off at every one because some idiot lit up and intersection with smoke for no reason. im not trying to argue but i am going to stand my ground.
