I cant count how many times some dipstick in a lifted truck drives by me with side exit exhaust and thinks it cool to rev up the engine (my top down of course) like they have a chance in the world to take an S. Needless to say, it was unfair and he was smoked. Anyone else tired of that crap.
I hate when the loud diesels do it, that sh*t hurts my ears!! I destroyed a ford diesel with a 4inch exhaust...he wouldnt let me get over for my turn so i decided to go around.

My brother has the 99' 250 with the internationl power stroke engine. He has a computer mod on it(not sure of the company name) and a exhaust on it. My Slighty modded ap1 kills his truck. Period. All he can say is "At least my engine will last 3 times as long".

Of course that depends on how you drive it. Those international engines that they put in those fords aren't really the same as the ones in the 18 wheelers. Those 18 wheelers can run 500,000 without having a rebuild. I doubt that ford will make it that long. I'm not trying to bash fords, I like fords I'm just trying to say that that I doubt very seriously that that f250 will go 500,000 before it needs to be rebuilt.

I dont know about ford, being as my brother f250 only has 50k.....But I do know the Cummins run for quite a while. Got a friend who has an older Dodge Diesel with over 300k on it.

I know this much, the trannys the weak point, and needs to be rebuilt at least 2-3 times in the engines life.

I bitchslapped some redneck in an older, lifted, ridiculously loud domestic pickup little over a year ago (I was running 8psi at the time). He was driving around like he was hot shit, flooring it off green lights, revving up his engine at red lights, and spewing black smoke while blasting his buttrock. I ended up next to him at a red light with nobody in front of us, and he's looking over at me and revving, so I decided to put him in his place. Honestly the kill wasnt even worth the time it would have taken to post it here though. He put up about as much of a fight as I'd expect from a stock chevy cavalier. I even let him go first and gave him 2-3 trucklengths on me before I got on it, but it didnt matter. What's funny is a few red lights down the road, I end up next to an older guy, looked to be in his 60's. I guess he saw what happened and he looks over at me and says with a southern drawl "booooy, I bet that just pisses off a smallblock chevy". hehe, I thought it was funny.

There are a lot of trucks that can woop s2k's

Here is a video of my friends supercharged s2k (8.5 Psi) Vs. A Srt-10 truck. If that was a stock s2k say bye bye.

yeah...your supercharger wont save you from SOME of the things out there, lol. Not unless you are Sideways, he would be a decent run for the dodge in the 2nd vid.
Wow I wonder how much gas that truck used on that run.
