Default Note to self

Note to self! Never go near anything but a Cummins. Taking the turbo off of a 7.3 is a b****! Im sure ill have the PS guys on here tearin me a new one but i dont care. The engineer behind this mess they call a motor is ridiculous! Now its time to kick back and watch the angry ford guys give me a hard time.

dmax is just as hard to work on compared to a older 12v or 24v or even cr for that matter. with the 6cyl we have a lot more room!

The duramax is a pain, i havent pulled a turbo but put a set of injectors in an 02 and it was fun! But i would rather work on a dmax than a freakin ford!
