FLFINfan,

I'm not doubting that it may have some mods...Could have fooled me from the way that thing performed. He should have been able to power brake and build up his boost in addition to launching in 4x4. I have never heard of a JWT pop charger. Is it a type of supercharger for gas engines? You said it was a diesel right?

All i'm saying is that the newer Turbo Diesels with mild mods are capable of hurting a lot of feelings.

For example a stock 7.3 turbo will put out anywhere between 20-23lbs of boost(thereabouts). A stock 6.0 turbo will put out 27lbs of boost, with a mild chip it will go to 32lbs of boost. Also the 6.0 turbo is Variable Geometry which means the vanes open and close to maximize the burning of fuel and reduce turbo lag. Thats why a 7.3 will produce a lot of black smoke where a 6.0 will not. Torque values are also different.
