I dunno, i would say it wont happen. Just because of the fact that the stock turbo cant flow enough air to burn off all that fuel those sticks are pourin in the cylinders.

i honestly could not imagine this thing running better right now haha, like everyone says their trucks aren't smooth with the stock hpop, and they get CELs and crap.. i've never gotten a CEL or anything, i really think my dad accidently had ford throw in better stuff last time he brought it there... like i don't think i should be able to beat mustangs without an intercooler, turbo, and all this stock stuff haha

ive made over 400 on stock turbo, so id say that would be enough to eat a 6.0. The only reason i had h2e with stage 2's is because i was getting ready for another injector upgrade. stage 2's, stock turbo and 6.0 ic only netted me 30-32 psi boost, so the stock turbo wasnt being pushed too hard.

ahhhhh... another 6.0 vs. 7.3 arguement. well Joe, if i had a superchip i would go out and try my luck on a couple of 6blows, but i don't got it. wait till i get a dp-tuner and i'll let ya know. i'm pretty sure that i can hang with 'em with a dp-tuner on stock sticks. although, i do have a manual tranny.... Oh well!! speed shift that bi***!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
