IDI build in DIESEL POWER

[fsr7]

I think you could build a IDI baja truck - I managed to jump my 1993 standard cab a good 8 -10 feet on concrete with no ill effects a couple years back

Thanks for educating me about increasing the compression on IDI engines. What I am after is throttle response. I thought I could get it by relying more on engine compression compared to more turbo.

Do you think intercoolers make diesel engines less snappy?

If I cant up the compression, what are some ways to get more throttle response?

gary was really trying to say "propane"
if you want to try out what an IC can do for you, come on up here for a day

Or come to Oregon, we can get up a group for a photo shoot, I can take you for a ride Intercoolers dont take away throttle response, these aren't ricers.

Apparently none of you have seen this truck. IDI or not it proves diesel baja is definitely possible.

Search for it on youtube too it sounds pretty sweet!

I think the old IDI's in stock trim have more throttle response than these new trucks.

Here is a link to a pretty interesting trailbuggy with a 7.3L PS, it sounds pretty mean.
