Default Biodiesel and Performance Mods

I'm looking into running biodiesel in my truck and was wondering who is running biodiesel and if they have any performance mods on their vehicle and if they have any problems. I have bigger injectors, bigger turbo, and fuel plate in a 12v Cummins. I'm friends with with people that run it in their trucks but they are all stock trucks and mine isn't stock. I was just wondering if it would hurt the injectors or anything.

No, it will run better on it. Bio is very lubricative. It might have slightly lower BTU rating than diesel, I know WVO does, unsure of bio. Either way, the lower BTU rating is offset by the lubricity. I know a few 6.0's running on WVO, dynoed around 430 on #2, and 415 on WVO...
