Interesting...

So i was goofin off on youtube the way i usually do, and i stumbled across this video. anytime i see a title that claims an OBS has over 400 HP, I have to watch to see 1) if it's true, and 2) cause good God I love 400HP+ OBS trucks! lol check this guy out...
1994 powerstroke 415.77 horses - YouTube
So I guess I've been going about all my mods the wrong way... What I should have done was put some 6" stacks on it and get a ts 6 position chip and a 15" subwoofer. Apparently that's all you gotta do to get 415 HP outta these trucks! lol Oh, let's not forget the K&N cold air intake! It would probably only have about 360 HP without that! lol My favorite part though is, "pretty good, not alot, i mean, that's a Powerstroke for you." lol Bet he's one of those who thinks he's got power cause it "rolls coal"... Oh, some people's kids...

yeah, I felt like i was hammered watching it... I mean, don't get me wrong, i'm not an expert on these trucks by any means, but i don't claim to be either. I'm just as proud of my truck as the next guy, but I'm not gonna go around spoutin off numbers without knowing first hand (from a dyno) around the right number to claim. but i guess that's what happens when you don't do your research!

So did he pay his left thumb for appearing as an extra?.....

So he shot it in glorious "ninety-vision" so his drunk-@$$ friends could watch this while lying on the floor -- but how did he know which way (left or right)?

Think he's still pushing all that mad stickah powah through the original DM flywheel?

Don't you have to push all clutches in a little before they start

He better push it in a lot! With all that horse power combined with the stereo, that thing might get away from him!
