    wow those are some good numbers. Ive read that they were underpowered, but that doesnt seem to be the case.
    How much reliable HP/Torque can you get out of em?

    How much money do you have?

    With good exhaust, intake, upgraded turbo, bigger injectors, dual high pressure oil pumps, custom fuel system, and custom programming you could probably get about 600rwhp/900ftlb.waytogo

    But if you were to do just the exhaust, intake, chip, and a few mods to the turbo, I would guess you could reliably get up to 350 hp and 600ftlb.

    Thats alot of work for just 600/900, the I-6 12-Valve cummins will do that

    I may be wrong, but I don't think a 12V Cummins will make that much power without some serious work either!
