I was just recently at a dyno day and saw two basically identical trucks dyno. Stock turbos, stock injectors, stock fuel systems, 4" exhausts, AFE intakes, even the same tuner. One had Terminator pumps the other had Stealth pumps.

On the same dyno less than an hour apart one dynoed 325hp the other dynoed 333hp. Should also add one had a 8" lift and had 38" tires, the other was stock and running 285's. Not really an effective comparison I guess. Hard to compare one truck to another.

Our trucks can vary that much from truck to truck even if everything is the same..

I wanna see same truck with and without as close together as possible..

MANY Pumps are on "Street Trucks" (OF ALL of the BIG OIL brands) Inline Duals, BTS duals. I know of at least 5 trucks that are "Daily Drivers" RV haulers that have BO on them. The Stage One that is getting installed this weekend probably doesn't tow much at all, it's his daily driver.

Jim - That's some great info. So, how is big oil working out on YOUR daily driver?

This thread just needs to die!!! Its years old....and was at the beginning of people really running big oil. A lot of us thought it would be a drain on the low pressure oil system.....or would cause motor damage...etc..etc. In the end we were wrong. Big oil is one of the best supporting mods you can make on a truck you are planning on taking to a high performance level.

Honestly, on a 7.3, it would be one of the first mods i would reccomend for a person planning on going with bigger injectors and a bigger turbo (with a few exceptions). I know of quite a few trucks running big oil that currently run in the 13's on the track, tow trailers regulary, and are daily drivers. Big oil by itself will not hurt anything on a truck and while some injector/turbo combinations will produce good power, your options are MUCH bigger with it and you will definately produce more consistant, usable power with big oil.

IMO these have been proven to be unarguable points on big oil and given that....lets let a very old thread die....
