MORE POWER

[dieselviznince]

What is the most power you can get out of a IDI and have is stil streetable, and what about max allout power????

I would say for streetable power, about 230-250 rwhp. This would consist of a IDI with a turbo, propane, turned up pump. Kind of like what Big Ed has going on.

As far as max power, I think I remember hearing that Ken at DPS had the bottom end come apart on one with 450hp.

Oh thats good to know, just always thinking about stuff like that, since my dream truck would be a 1980 to 1998 F250 or 350 crew cab long bed with like 6 inches of lift and lots of power to go wherever. Which brings me to another question why can 12v dodges make so much mor power like ive seen some with 900 hp. and still be streetable????? Maybe Ill have to put a cummins in my dream ford.

Direct injection and a decompressed engine from the factory. Our motors were designed to run without turbo's, unlike the Cummins.
