No mechanical boost signal, you have to tap the air horn

You hear a lot of crap about d-max's. I know there are some fast ones, and ones that pull good, but they arent all that. Got beside one the other day. Saw his monitor in the windshield. It smoked good, had a straight exhaust/tip, but it wasnt fast at all. I never got to run him from a light, but kicking on it on the road he couldnt do anything with me. I have been beside one that beat me pretty good, but this one was slow. I just cant wait to get my truck how i want it. Ill be ready to play with some d-max's then. I aint scared no ways. Boy i know has one. reg cab 4x4. He kinda ran his mouth the other day and asked if i wanted to race. I know he would beat me. He says it will run a 14.2 in the 1.4. I told him i didnt want to race but that i would hook him, and he didnt want any of that Tried to tell me his 4wd was broke, and then told me it wasnt broke, but that he wouldnt hook me still I would have raced him anyway if it werent for having to do it on the street. If we had been at the drag strip it would have been on.

Dont get me wrong. Not saying the d-max's are slow at all. Heck. I only run 16's, but i dont have much done yet. The one i raced the other day was slow, but most are fairly quick. Im just saying a new cummins modded the same will run right with them. To be truthful, all the new trucks run awesome with just programmers/boxes, but I just like an I-6 diesel.

It is a 2002, I don't know what mods, but I believe he is the owner of Quadzilla.

Jim has a built transmission, a set of injectors that I built, our 215hp tuner w/ our N20 kit. He has our intake kit on it and a dual 4" exhaust. Thats it.
I don't care to get in a peeing match, but 4 digit dyno numbers have been achieved, but it was very pricey.
700rwhp is simple to do on a Dmax and can be had with simple bolt ons. I can get you there for 10k or less including a tranny. I can guarantee 700 to the tires.

well i have seen of few of the trucks quad is talking about, they will get with the program. jim's truck is for real and few more that run around the dfw area. but i haven't bumped into one on the highway yet, i am still batting 1000 for dmax kills. but there seems to be more and more of them every dyno day or track day. i better add some more fuel.

The problem with most of the "street racers' with their Attitudes on the Dmax's is that they don't look after the transmission. They pay big $$ for the box and then the tranny limps as soon as they hit the big program.
Heck, I kept up to the Attitude Dmax on a roll through the stoplights, as soon as they hit the 650 Ft-lbs or so torque mark, its all over. Limp mode.. Problem around here is that most of the vendors will sell the big boxes for the DMax, but don't know squat about the tranny. I feel sorry for those guys that get soaked..
They are quick.. There is a reason for V-8s on the drag stip. There is also a reason for I-6 in the OTR trucks. I will never try to race, I am not a good shifter with the 5 spd.. But see you on the hills......

Theres also a reason for I-6's in a diesel truck on the drag strip, and pulling track. They will out run, and out pull them Hard to beat a 12 valve turning 5k+ rpm

However, for pulling, I don't think a DMAX could ever outdo a built 12v (think Schied/Crowder 12V)
