place a reflective marker on the harmonic balancer (if the machine is capabale with a pick up)

That is how I've always seen it done for diesels.

Got some dyno numbers, here they are:

200 HP @ 2945 RPM
355 TQ @ 2939 RPM

I also did the quarter mile run which was 17.472 @ 75.150

Its bone stock besides the AFE CAI.

hmmm, Do those torque numbers seem a bit low??

[TurboedV6]

Thats what I thought too, what was redline when some of you dynoed?

[scheidt27]

ive never dyno'd, now i really need to!!

[TurboedV6]

Yeah for some reason as soon as we started to get into the power band which was about 2700rpm it just died at 3000rpm and would not going any higher.

I think the red line is somewhere between 3250 and 3500 I could be wrong I do not own one I just know the cummins is around 3000 and 3250 and I would imagine that the psd has a wider/ longer rpm band/range....... imo

So judging by this, and my sig what do you think my numbers are? ballpark..

[scheidt27]

around the same. an exhaust and intake isnt really gonna be a big power adder on there own. with a chip is when they make a difference. the last dyno i saw IIRC with a stock truck was I believe 225ish hp and around 420ish torque
