Literally, for half the money, a 12v Cummins will make twice the power a PSD ever will.
If I was to do it all over again, a Cummins swap would be my choice. I got into this to build 'my first hotrod diesel' not knowing that the 7.3 PSD was as limited as it is. Budget or not, technology has left the 7.3 behind.

yeah youre right Robby, but with a 800hp 12v, you ALWAYS have 800hp and you can't change on the fly like an electronic engine. You (well, at least me) don't always want to run around on the highest tire shredding, smoke pluming horsepower setting. I guarantee you i'd have a Common-Rail 5.9 in my truck just like Kai's, however the stupid braaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh exhaust tone from the straight 6 reminds me too much of a riceburner, and i'm not doing that. I love the v8 sound of the powerstroke and therefore i gotta pay to play.
