Default What can I do?

I'm lookin at buyin a 93 7.3 idi 5 speed 397k miles. I plan on just usin it as a beater around farm and in woods maybe to and from work a day or 2 a week. I know I performance potential ain't much with these engines I just want to know what can I do to make it roll some serious coal? I'm sure i prob get hell from people sayin smoke is loss of power and all but I'm not lookin for power I just want somethin to screw around in and **** some buddies off

You can turn the fuel up pretty easy on it. Plenty of write ups on that thing

your gonna need new intake/exhaust if ya want to crank the fuel pump up or you'll melt down your engine, but its up to you not my truck!
