I just wanted to post a congratulations to my boss, Jim Jones, for finally making 1000 HP with his 2002 Duramax. He is also a professional firefighter, so he asked me to take his truck to a dyno event for him today. We went loaded for bear. The truck has a fully built motor from SoCal diesel, a set of custom built twin turbos, dual CP3s, bigger injectors (not sure on the specs), EFILive tuning from IdahoRob, a transmission that was built in house by Jim's performance diesel business, a two stage nitrous system, and a laundry list of various other modifications. He has been shooting for a 1000 HP dyno sheet since he got the truck back together late last year, and we were fortunate enough to make it today. This was with 0% correction factor. Here are the numbers:
Fuel only: 898.5 HP and 1660 Ft-Lbs of TQ
With spray: 1053.1 HP and 1844 Ft-Lbs of TQ
It should also be noted that this truck isn't a dyno queen. Jim races the truck as often as he can. It was at the NADM Texas Nationals race last October where it ran a 10.7 in the 1/4 with a small shot from one stage (the second stage was deactivated). This was on street tires with a race weight of almost 7000 lbs. It is going in for a roll bar soon.
Here are a couple of pics (vids are uploading right now). Thanks to Danny for taking them.
Congratulations Jim and all who were involved with the truck :clap: :rockwoot:
