ok then, 300 pounds in the back seat, 250 in the front passenger side and a couple of hundred more in the truck shoulc hold er down then. U could add a spoiler? Just make sure the sacks of concret are tied down so they don't shift on ya. I have had that happen with almost disasteous results

I think my truck has power but not the rpm's the speedo stopped at 90 around 2700 and it stopped accelerating at 3000 flat for some reason. But I have drove a C6 corvette up to 145 in 45 zone couple months ago it was most amazing cars I have ever got to drive.

In my 250, I'd guess 110-115 before I backed off. It had Plenty of Power Left, I just didn't need to go that fast and started to run out of room.

I was leaving my Friend in the Smoke. He had never seen a tuned 6.4...So I showed him.



132mph in my Cadillac DeVille Concours.

Confirmed by GPS and Speedo. I think it would go more, but the message on the DTC said - Fuel Shutoff, Top Speed.

110mph on my HD Fatboy, then backed off. I really don't need to go that fast on it.

well I checked with the GPS on this one and I got my old 96 up to 122 and I got my new truck up to 132 but it is because I have huge tires and stock gearing. I pegged the EGT gauge at 1500 at 110mph and I just kept going. Figured if the turbo melted it would be a great time to get a bigger one =)
