19psi 03-02-2011 08:03 PM

Thank you , I liek it quite a bit. It rides so nice compared to the cummins. Guess I"m getting old....

if you do any wrenchin have fun doing it on that Dmax. bet u will be wishing u still had ur cummins.

19psi 03-03-2011 06:17 AM

Yeah of course I wrench on it! Stock sucks! But you're right, it's a bitch compared to the cummins. Of course, with just a tuner on it, it's faster than my cummins was with quad, smarty, 100's, airdog, and water meth. Once I pay it off and buy a transmission, I can go with a big tune and really make some power.

Nope, never. I just tow my jeep and other random cars with it and take it on vacation.

Unfortunately, yes. I didn't want to belive the hype, but it's true.

I was always against IFS on trucks, but now, i realize it really doesn't make a difference if i'mi not going to do any type of competition with it. Street driving, the IFS is awesome.

It is amazing. Of course, it started out with 130 more hp than my 24v did....
I"m running the Banks economind. Yeah, I know, Banks blah blah, but until I get a built trans, there's no point in anything more aggressive, the allison can't handle more than about 100-125 hp more than stock. It's actually a really smooth programmer, runs like stock fuel curve but more power all the way around. I would like a little more fuel down low for more torque, but then it would smoke more and I"m kind of out of that phase...

LoneOakCummins21 04-19-2011 01:01 AM

not that it matters to me or nothin but why is it still at the car lot with temp tags on it

19psi 04-19-2011 06:43 AM

That's the car lot I bought it from; my friend works there and hooked me up with it, so I stopped by after a couple mods to show it off. I had a pile of parts waiting in my garage before I even had the truck, so it was modded from day 1!

rollincoal06 04-26-2011 07:23 PM

GIVER06 08-12-2011 04:11 PM

here's my take on the dmax vs. cummins. my cummins was a beast when towing, mostly because of being a manual trans and having more mods. the dmax is a bit more sluggish, it requires more skinny pedal to do the same thing.
That being said, the dmax is faster unloaded, handles better, brakes better, has better AC, and is so much quieter, it's really nice.
The dmax has the variable geometry turbo, which Banks is using with their speedbrake to really slow down when hauling. it's absolutely amazing how well this works.
