2004 Dmax. 500 rwhp 1000 rwtq (discovered a boost leak after the dyno runs but haven't dyno'd again). 20 mpg on the highway if I'm being nice.

Winter daily, been driving it for 7 years. 272,000 miles original engine! I'm driving it until it blows. I have done more off roading and rallying than most trucks. Studs on all 4 corners and this thing goes everywhere, well until it snows 4 feet in 2 days!! Sorry no good pics of it 2.2 L 5 speed 130hp oh ya!!

1990 Subaru Legacy

Its the grey beast to the right of my dirtbike, thats my sweet purple (maroon) 92 mazda b2600i dirtbike hauler too. The otherside has a pink door and a caved in roof since a tree fell on it!

Spartan 310 tune, S&B Intake, Flo-Pro 4" exhaust with DPF/DOC delete.

620hp/1240ftlbs on the 310 tune.


I daily on the 250 tune, the TCM tune is better for the trans.

literally run circles around them...

2.0 DI Turbo ecotec puts "260" to the crank from the factory without a problem. The Turbo cobalt is the fastest production FWD car ever around the Nurburgring*. Ecotecs love boost so adding more isn't a potentially hazardous problem, they don't sound horrible like SRT-4s and they don't look like skittles. I would trade my Stang for a nice 4-door Cobalt SS/TC.

*Renault had a FWD car beat the Cobalt SS time around the ring, but this vehicle had a full roll cage, no stereo, no a/c, plexiglass windows, etc. Essentially a race car sold as a street car, just for the credibility of having the fastest "production" car.

trans is stock. the tune also re tunes the tcm to help with the longevity. also how you drive is a big factor as well. so far i have put 8k miles with this setup and not a problem as of yet.


it is a 6 speed auto and has done great. so far so good.

I guess the transmissions that come in power strokes are MUCH stronger than the Allison's
