136 Psi!

Lol, Ford power FTW! I'm suprised on how well those turbos muffle the sound of that truck. It would be awesome to lay the smackdown on Cobra Mustangs in that thing..
 
There's a Dodge around Des Moines that has a 6 cyl Cummins that makes over 1100 HP and 1500 TQ. Makes for a noisy take off, but it sure does fly when it's put in 4wd!!!
 
That kinda TQ is gettin close to big truck numbers. I know a couple trucks around here that enjoy hosing all over imports at the drag strip. That light/medium duty Cummins 5.9L is as good as it gets. :cool:
 
if you guys think those numbers are impressive, look into competitive pulling tractors, most are running in the 280psi range across 4 turbos into international and cat truck motors, making between 1800 and 3k hp. i dont know a ton about it but my budy is good friends with a guy that is into it. If I can i'll get some pics of his rig.
 
this guy is so full of ****. I have a 98.5 Dodge 3500 dualie with a single turbo at 68 PSI putting 1520 ftlbs torque and and 800 hp and i can run 10.5 at the track. If i got ride of some extra weigth (5th wheel hitch and extra fuel tanks) i bet i could get down to 10.2 and my truck weights 10000 pounds(Full of fuel with plow)

Now that would be a sight to see... Some teenager with his "acquired" Evo/Sti lined up with a 3500 Dually with a plow... then get wasted by it!
