Default 2005 modded Powerstroke vs 04.5 modded Cummin? help

A guy i know has 04.5 Cummins 4 inch lift and 35s, 5' exhaust, afe stage 2 intake, built torque converter, and a Smarty SSR programmer. I have a 2005 F250 6.0 with innovative custom tuned SCT, bullydog intake, 4'' exhaust no head studs but HPOP, oil cooler, coolant filter. Im selling my truck and i love how fast it is just getting tired of the 6.0 and want to try a Cummins and hes selling his because hes having a kid and is getting a honda. My question is is the Cummins going to be as fast as mine? or even close? i know its a wierd question just really wondering. Thanks in advance!

Probably close, but I'd give the edge to the powerstroke. What power level is that dodge auto going to hold up to?

I'd say they're pretty close now though.

it goes up to 9 if im not mistake. i would run it on a tune thats similar to my street tune on the SCT. I know this is off topic but i have about 1000 to drop into it and i think ill put it into performance. what would you recommend

Transmission in the Dodge is the weak point when you start to add power. Our is 325hp stock and the cummins is 330hp, so real close.
