I have been driving my new Powerstroke around now for a few weeks and I must say it is very nice, Tons of power, I pull a trailer with (2) skid loaders and a John deere bucket loader down the interstate 80-85 mph while passing chevys and dodges like there still in park, I brought the truck into the FORD dealership in my area for a general service check, while I was waiting for my ticket a mechanic came up to me and had asked how long I owned the truck, I said a few weeks, he said he liked the sound of the pipe, I said yes it sounds great, I asked him why it was louder than other powerstrokes I have seen, to my surprize my truck had an 6.5" stainless exhaust the last owner had installed along with many other mods that I never knew about includeing a twin turbo kit, I was told that my horsepower was around 900 hp and 2200 pounds of torq, I was also told that my truck was set up for pure pulling power, I guess I can finally say bring me 2 duramax's and 3 cummins and I will pull them all at the same time and pull them apart and chase down the drivers! F-450 superduty 4x4 crew dually. DONT MESS WITH IT< AND DONT MESS WITH TEXAS.

This was a Quote off the GM diesel site...had to share it with you guys!

So, if I read that correctly, he had a twin turbo and didn't know it?

Ummm, ok

To quote Bugs Bunny " What a MAROON"!!!!! 900 horse power???
Yea, right. How did he come up with that number? Can a mechanic really tell how much power you have by just looking at it??? I guess we all know just where he resides in the gene pool

Where exactly does one buy a six (and a half) inch exhaust, anyway?

I should go look at mine. Who knows what I've been missing?

Yup.

No one buys a used vehicle without checking under the hood.

Even my mother, who has no idea what she is looking at takes a peek under the hood.
Probably even kicks the tires, which accomplishes nothing, unless they are Firestone.

We all know the name Ford sells itself right? no need to look under the hood if it's a super duty powerstroke, what could be wrong?

I think the gene pool could use a little Chlorine.

"unless they are Firestone,........................unless they are Firestone" I love my firestones and my truck hasnt rolled over yet. should be unless they are BFG's. they have left me stuck 1 too many times.
that guy has to be foolin' because we all no that when ever a PSD driver opens his mouth about his truck they always say YOU CAN'T EVEN TELL ITS BACK THEIR.when they have pulled something.so its clearly a phoney.
plus youd figger the person he bought it off of would have mentioned the $3,000 SS Exhaust
2200 POUND OF TORQUE-----thats like 5 1/2 PSD's

Today I opened my hood and there was an extra turbo under there for some odd reason, and gauges appeared on my pillar too. I also found out I had 20 inch exhaust and by looking at the motor I have around 25000 horsepower. What a moron, but hey, it's a Ferd guy!!!
