I can garauntee you you'll beat the PS if you turbo your truck.
My '94 IDI turbo will eat my PS alive and the PS has ALL of the "advantages": lower gears, lighter, automatic etc.

If you race a modified one you might be in trouble though. Unless his breaks down or falls apart before the finish line.
