Smoke: It's overrated

This truck makes 1,000hp. Very impressive as far as I'm concerned. Credit to Blowby on PSA.

Writes his own tunes as far as I'm aware. Mike is the real deal. First to hit 4 digit hp numbers in a 7.3

Impressive, but is the truck in the same tune that dyno'd 1000hp , or is it a 1000 hp truck in a tree hugger tune for the test?
Not trying to be a stick in the mud, just curious!
Either way 1000hp is very impressive

He didn't say if that's the tune that make 1,000hp, but it sounds like it's at least a driving tune. This is a motor with a lower compression ratio at high altitude too... oh and 400/400 injectors.

Not in California. It has two many not factory upgrades like turbo in the wrong spot. California sucks. But this is one awsome truck. Great video's

By the way... those opacity numbers are LOWER than a bone stock truck. In other words, his tune runs cleaner with those huge injectors than a stock 7.3L SD.
