i do know what size chargers they are, unfortunately i don't know if the owner would want me sharing the specs, i'll ask him and let ya know, they're not insanely large turbo's though, being as there is 4 of them they don't need to be huge, the other dmax this shop has built is the drag truck Dirtymax, and it runs an Aurora 5000 over a s472 or 475 and recently made a 9.3 second quarter mile pass

it looks like it in video's and pictures, but no it's not, it's a blue metallic paint actually similar to the ford color until you get up close to it

Thats looks like more like a sema truck than anything else. No offense to the builder.

With the better heads then the Powerstroke. I believe he could run bigger once again no offense to the builder but the Wide Open runs 2.6 and 3.0 with ported heads I believe stock the DMAX flows better also got to deal with size constraints his is still in the truck.

A lot more room on the rail.

If he has I don't know if the room was there I honestly think they could throw bigger boys on there.

Other than that it's amazing but to pretty to drag race I think. I wouldn't let it leave the garage just sit there and stare at it. Probaly a few other things I can't mention in the open forums.

Looks great though.

yeah the builders goal is to have the fastest street legal truck in the nation which given enough time and money it will be possible, when this is going to happen i don't know, but the thing is Idaho Rob just ran a 9.4 second quarter mile in a street legal pickup so he's got his work cut out for him, and his heads are ported, everything in the engine is built to race, and i will agree with the to pretty to race thing, but he already has a 738 horse LMM for daily driving so this thing could possibly be just a sema vehicle, either way it'll have the potential to be very fast i think
