Its a GREAT tool! Not to pimp my own flag but, doing FULL standalone tuning of any/everything on the truck, to a full scan tool, better than GM's TechII and adding data logging all in one, WOW is right! Its a steep learning curve though, so much there!

Word on the street from EFI, they were thinkin about EFI for CR Cummins but that was also before the economy crash. Who knows? EFI has been been workin with GM vehicles for a long time and it takes a TON of work so to take up another make of vehicles is astrononical! Time will tell.

As of the moment, my power making is hampered by the stock turbo, (untill twined of course) but the IHI is the smallest of the dmax turbos and @ 32psi, its at the end of its compressor map and 500ish HP is all it will make. I could prolly sqweak 600 with the M/W on full tilt.

The sticks are great, I can put the same shot of fuel in with less PW/timing and take some strain off the motor.

Trucks, close in mods to mine are runnin low 12's on twinned stock motors and high 11's if its a lighter truck like mine, EC/SB, so im pretty stoked. I'll need slicks and good 60ft to get it though.

As far as power as is, and this is estimated guess, 475-500hp or possibly 600hp with the M/W injection goin. I'd like to dyno mine but theres so many dyno variances out there. I personally feel calculating HP numbers from track times and adding the varibles gives me a more real-world number, IMO.

What are ya lookin to get HP/TQ out of yours?

A Lenco would be awsome!!....My truck has a NV 5600 with a SB 3250 DD clutch....

....Its a super strong trans, but not great for drag racing...slow shifting....Boosted 3rd gear, 4 wheel drive launches do get it though!!...
