Couple questions for a new guy

Hey guys, this is my first post here. I am looking at a 2000 model powerstroke. It has about 130,000 miles on it. It's a six speed with a short shifter tranny, it has a Banks inner cooler, gauges, a kenwood tv, a Garrett turbo, and a TS 6 pos. chip, some pimp azz wheels and probably some other stuff im forgetting. My buddy traded this truck for a dodge, i've been around the truck ever since he owned it. The boy that has it now is wanting something cheaper to operate, and im trading my 92 Toyota for it, and 7500$ boot. I have read alot about the wildman chip tuning.

1 question, is how many estimated ponies will I have with this truck?

2 What kind of numbers does the wildman tuner produce?

I only drive from home and to work, and maybe get out and cat around on the weekends, and I race quads on the weekends sometimes. I just want a truck that's gonna get me to the races and where I need to go. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

i don't know the whole xl or xlt thing, it has a bench seat with cloth interior, and its a regular cab. 4x4.


edit: the interior is the only thing I DON'T like about this truck. It has a custom paint job, my buddy's dad owns a body shop and it was painted a cinamon orange type color. Not like any color i've ever seen on a powerstroke. It definately stands out when you see it.

It doesn't say on the badges (where it says F350)...?

My buddy said he thinks it's an XLT. He put the 05 frontend and badges on the truck.

Welcome to the family! Id would guess you would be around the 320hp to 330hp mark if it has the hot tunes like the 140 hp setting

When you say Garrett turbo, what do you mean? GT38R or upgraded stock garrett turbo.

What about intake, exhaust and gauges? Does it have any of these on it?
