Message: [QUOTE="Ronin, post: 330499, member: 2612"] [B]baderic[/B] was texting back and forth with Matt about my truck. At first Matt thought the numbers were pretty good, until he found out it was his Street tune and not the Hot Street I was running; then he kind of freaked out! They wanted me to run the Race tune just for laughs and I told that as long as they studded the motor for me if it let go that would be fine with me... And then I told them I didn't even have it loaded in my SCT...just the Tow, Street and Hot Street...it's on my laptop so I don't even get tempted! LOL Two of the guys there were former 6.4 owners and they were real interested in both of our trucks. One had an '08 that was just extremely problematic which he just ditched after the headgaskets let go and got a 1/2 ton gasser. The other kid (and I can call him that 'cause I wasn't sure he was old enough to drive!) said he ditched his 6.4 for a Cummins. He also kept making comments that if he knew he could have gotten those numbers out of his truck he would have kept it. He definitely had been drinking some of that Cummins Kool Aid! Some of those trucks were chuggin' smoke at idle and were overfueling like you read about. I couldn't imagine daily driving something like that. I'm not a tree hugger by any stretch but I could see how a few trucks like that can end up causing drama for all diesels... LOTS of gigantic Cummins stickers, peeing on Ford, I'd rather be Cummin then Stroking, etc. I didn't hate or talk smack about anybody but man that one "crew" was not pleased when their boy with HUGE dough in his truck fell short. Then the one guy who beats me (like I cared) pukes everywhere, limps off the rollers, leaves a trail of wreckage in the parking lot and has a drain pan under it when I was leaving...AWESOME! I can't remember how many times I said "intake, tune and exhaust". I added "mild tune" and "stock headbolts" a couple of times and mentioned that the downpipe and CAC pipe probably helped too. I'm just real happy with my truck and looking forward to studding/deleting it so I can turn it up a bit. A 600/1200 daily driver would suit me just fine... [/QUOTE]
