any updates to this?
Idk IDIs are making power levels similar to a chipped 6.0 although with a lil more work. Lol. I guess it just depends on who's idi we are talking about.
I've got a friend who has a 06 6.0 egr delete,and oil pump.stomp the throttle at a dead stop, it turns the tires immediately,then the stock turbo spools and it just Fry's the tires.
Never seen and IDI even come close to that kind of power.

I think Justin needs to just make an inline pump setup already lol I would like to see 500cc plus going through one of his motors
Doesn't even make sense, imo.Negotiable, 6000$ gets a decent lower mile idi, 17000 is a decent 6.0 that's probably got 200000 miles on it and needs something by now, put like 5000$ into a idi and you'll be sitting reasonable power levels with new fuel system parts, new turbo, exhaust, intake etc, and a reliable low mile truck. If you wanted to do that to a 6.0 or 6.7 you'd be in at least 10k or more. It depends on the person really if you have $$ for a 6.0 or 6.7 yes power can be had but performance parts are not cheap and even stock yes they put out tons of power. But your comparing trucks 20+ years apart what can you expect from a 30 year old truck anyway? Lol
You can find low mile IDIs near me with less than a 100k and no rust. As for what system is more reliable that is just an opinion, everything breaks and these old trucks are wayyy easier to work on and diagnose. You may be able to get parts for new trucks easier but look at the cost differential, injectors on an idi vs a 6.7, not to mention the difference in labor involved in the two.Doesn't even make sense, imo.
1. If you even find a "low mile" IDI, it's still plenty over 100k, plus going to be way more than $5k.
2. You can't compare 6.0 to 6.7, completely different animals, and I can tell you haven't been around/driven either.
3. You're forgetting about the whole drivetrain/suspension on the IDI that's going to need replaced. Not to mention any rust issues. (Again, rust free are out there, but that's going to raise the price immensely.)
4. Most of the parts you mentioned the 6.0 or 6.7 needing because it's 200k miles. False, unlike the IDI, some stock fuel system components will last well over that mileage. Especially the common rail parts in the 6.7, which is the most reliable system out there.
Another thing that's great with the newer generation trucks, they aren't obsolete. So you can actually get parts, no issue.
