wanted to find out if anyone here is into diesel preformance, doesent matter if its ford, chev, dodge.
like to hear from you all
I know this is not exactly the correct forum for finding people into this aspect of motorsport, so please do not flame if you are one of the people that are not so friendly to us at castrol raceway.
(ie, making sure we dont race) |

| as stated above... wanted to know who else was into hotroding diesels. not really asking any questions just wanted to see if there are an of you on here cause i only meet you at stop lights :D |

| im into performance period, import, muscle, deisel. if you've got a deisel that can spank my car (not talking about the tercel) then props to you, i'd love to see it. Deisels are a great platform for easy power, intake exaust and a chip can easily clear 100hp. not to mention the torque is great, without trying i can break the tires loose at 60kmph in an 06 duramax. but yeah i think you should be a bit more specific in your question. |

My dad has an 06 CTD 2500 4x4 that I bought a few mods for. He lets me use it if I mod it lol.
Bullydog Tripledog on Extreme, Quadzilla Boost Fooler, MBRP exhaust on the way and an AEM intake so far. I don't think the 48RE will take much more than this anyway. Its going to need a TC and valvebody, then we'll try the crazy larry program. Crazy larry is good for times deep in the 13s.
What does your truck run at Castrol? Were you at August Blackout? |

He will love the MBRP ... that is what I have on mine. Awesome sound, not too loud at all unless you are WOT. Down the highway you cant even tell i have exhaust done |

| 93vg30e |
Unfortunatly I have not run at castrol due to people complaining about smoke this was many months ago, i have heard this issue is resolved. Much to my sadness i did not make it to the blackout, big valley was the same weekend!!!!!
as for mods so far i run
Edge J+A, Magnaflow 4inch with a MRBP tip so it looks like i am big money:cool:, 3/8 fuel line + holley blue pump, AFE stage 2 intake off for the winter, Mach 1.6 injectors, pulled out when the clutch started slipping, will go back in when new clutch is put in, in the spring.
i will be into the high 700 torque when i have all the parts on in the summer |

Right on, I ordered the cool duals. I was hoping they won't drone much pulling the fifth wheel.
93vg30e, there's been a lot of trucks that black the place out at Castrol when Ive been there. I can't see the difference between tire smoke and exhasut smoke :dunno:
And better be careful with the newer Duramax's, the LBZ's (2006) make almost 900 tq with the Bullydog on Extreme. :eek: |
|
|
| 93vg30e |
Never heard of a dmax making that kinda torque with only a tuner and if it does, you better have isuzu on speed dial for replacment parts...:P never the less i like to be conservitive with my estimation seen as the edge programer on my truck says it will add 300 foot pounds on 5/5 which is 700 right there and the machs are are 100 horse sticks dont know torque on them so you do the math... never the less traction will be an issue :thumbup:
Leadsled - I dont know how much diff the mrbp is to the magnaflow (both are strait through designs) but mine is not any louder but i get a hint of turbo whine out the exhaust. |

700 seems low since mine has 610 stock |

sorry, my truck is the HO which is 505 from factory.
mwdguy what do you have on your truck other than the exhaust |

Intake and some gauges, still undecided on which programmer/chip to toss on there since I use the truck for work so I dont want to get too crazy for it because I dont want to dump a lot into it. |

| I'm into rodding my diesels...my 05 Ram has aFe stg.2, MBRP 4" single exhaust, BD diesel intercooler, Industrial Injection Silver Bullet turbo, 80hp injectors and stg.3 CP3 mod, Fass system, ATS 2-pc. manifold and high ram intake, full race built tranny with Triple disc torque converter, upgraded flex plate and valve body and Zex nitrous kit. |
|
|
| 93vg30e |
| wes - you got one hell off set up on that rig are you runing in the 12's???? i am assuming you have done head studs and fire ringed it? |
|
|
| LeadSled |
Wes, did you get NADP to build your 48RE? Its nice that they're so close but I've heard they are more expensive than DTT or Suncoast.
MWD, the Bullydog Tripledog is killer, I don't think you'll be disappointed. Because the one model works for all the new diesels, you can find used ones easier. I bought my dad's off ebay for like $350USD and it worked flawlessly. |
|
|
| wes_4 |
| Thanks! I haven't done head studs or anything. This setup actually runs quite cool and internal work is not neccesary. I also didn't mention that I have EGT, boost, and tranny temp. guages to monitor everything and an ATS lock-up controller for hard launches. I will run all day at the track (best time of 12.7 - before intercooler and nitrous install) and rarely touch 1200 degrees on the EGT's. My tranny does heat up though, so I am looking to install a transmission cooler before next season. The Trans. is a Heavy Hauler 48RE from NADP. It has been excellent even though alittle more pricey. I think that is a fair trade off to have the service so close...Barry and Craig have treated me excellent. |
|
|
| 93vg30e |
so you are running a phat shaft turbo??? what size (the common 62) also what are you running for boost 40's?
so you went with nitrous over water methanol or is that coming later:D
that set up is wicked and you dont even touch 1200 UNREAL!!! so with all the new parts you should be getting real low in the 12's maby even 11's next season:thumbup: |
|
|
| 180sxforthewin |
| Helped my boss get a banks power upgrade for his duramax. It goes like a rocket now. If I had a truck I would definately invest in some serious power mods. |
|
|
| wes_4 |
| oh, i'll touch 1200, but its rare and doesn't stay there long...yeah, i did the nitrous over water-meth because it is a little less finicky, but I still might strap it on next year to lower temps. even more and I probably will always want more power. The turbo is a Silver Bullet which is a Super Phat Shaft variation, but i think it is a .74 trim...takes a little longer to spool up,. but has limitless high end...if not for the speed limiter I would be running low 12's right now...as for boost im pushing 53lbs at max...needless to say I have some fun. (and my highway milage is only about 1mpg worse!) |
|
|
| 93vg30e |
I cant belive your running STOCK head studs and gasket at 53 pounds!!!!!!! i think your a little crzy:thumbup: I dont think you said what programmer/tunner your running... i assume you stackin to make the power you do.
From what i heard Stacking the Smartie with the Edge juice works wicked, and the catcher programming in the smartie is unreal, Can anyone verifiy this? |
|
|
| LeadSled |
I don't think 53lbs on the 600 Series CTD's is that bad, I thought you didn't have to firering and headstud until like 60 psi :dunno:
I've read good and bad things about the Smarty, some have problems and some have it work great. Maybe it was an issue with earlier ones.
I think once we get the tranny built we'll go with the BDDL Crazy Larry, TST and MP-8, I've seen some pretty good results on the 600's with that. |
|
|
| wes_4 |
| Oh..Sorry, I thought for sure I had mentioned my chip/programmer setup. I am running a predator 2018 120hp chip under the hood with a PPE downloader (extreme setting for big power, tow setting for milage). The setup I have right now dynoed at 615 hp and 1160 lb./ft. before the intercooler/nitrous. I also have the suncoast functional Ram hood on the truck. |
|
|
| 93vg30e |
the headstud and gasket set up must be alot better on the 3rd gens then the 2nd, cause i know i cant go above 35 with the factory studs and gasket and even then anything over 50 i need it fireringed and 12mm studs are a MUST but 14 mm would be even cooler.
:p |

:lol:
93vg30E, I was wrong before. According to ATS you should head stud the 3rd gen around 45-50psi. They say O-rings will work to around 70psi and Firerings for anything more. |

| NO, the only deiseled dodge truck evermade was the RAM, technically dodge didn't make the engine though because it has a cummins. Personally, for trucks i'm a chev guy, anyone on here doing up a duramax? all i see is cummins. |

As far as i know the only dakota that has a diesel in it is the one build by Banks, it was built to set the land speed record for a diesel truck and did so at 222 miles per hour. It even towed its own what looked to be like a 20 foot enclosed trailer full of tires tools and other things, it not only did this just to the track and back but accros the U.S. i think it did like 16K miles never broke down and still got 16mpg. Thats a true test of what diesel can do
:D try doing that with a 1000 horse supra. |
