I guess I was one of the stupid kids that went on to trade school. It wasn't as easy as you think, in fact I bet that you wouldn't have made it. What a ball bag!
If class rules allow it, the use of nitrous isn't cheating...
Pro-inexpensive HP
Con-"usually" not a full time power adder (daily driving)
I don't see a reason for an argument...
Paint has never used it, maybe that's why he's mad at it...All you others that have, big deal, good for you...

Good thing the Ford boys don't take this thread and post it on one of there sites as it just goes to show for one we can't admit they make more power than us with less mods. Have yet to see 590+ rwhp out of a stock motored dmax on #2 only(like it came of the show room floor). I think alot of this nitrous talk and the guys that are so against it are mad they spent big money or had parts given to them with big names on them and can't run the number. Nice comparisons on here to with schools. How many more excuses or things can be brought up. For one, bashing someone or trying to belittle a guy that has acomplished more than you with his hard work makes you really look stupid. Amazes me how this is supposed to be a site about performance and certain guys want to tear down accomplishments because they used nitrous. Better tell McRat everything he's done with nitrous dosen't mean anything even though he shared with all of you that follow him what hes done and how he did it. You didn't have an issue when he went fast using nitrous so why is it a big deal now?:bsbag:

:spit::spit:Could be, man I could go back and edit, but ehhh... whats be dah use yah know? Half the words I have to sound out, and beleive it or not I used to do very well in grammer and spelling, WTF happened, I don't know
I agree to a point about the tranny. So what. The guy only ran a 12.9X on diesel fuel. Which is comparable to any duramax. How many people have sprayed a stock duramax and ran 12.10's or lower. I don't know of anyone spraying a stock duramax. That's the point. Who's proven that it can't be done? What about ratlover and the no limit truck? I thought they had run some rediculous numbers with nos on otherwise stock motors. But I sapose that doesn't count because that was LB7 or before the cracked piston era of the LBZ LMM's.
I agree the tranny is stronger stock for stock then the allison. It has been forever- the few problems in the begining - but they still held more power or atleast they didn't limp.
So hp for money they can run the same 500hp+or - to the rear wheels cheaper. We can make the hp/dollar but it cost you the tranny to get it there. It still hasn't been proven that they don't need a tranny in the long run or has it?
Show me a stock duramax with only a tuner, intake and exhaust that runs 12.90's and weighs over 8000#'s race weight and I'll take what your saying in consideration. And then hit it with nitrous and see what happens. Heres another one...my budy Jake with his 08 with a 275 tune runs damn near the same time and mph as I do with that tune, intake and pdf, cat and muffler removed from the stock exhaust and was hot lapping it with no problems. He's had the truck for over a year and been running that tune for over 8 months and his truck is over 7000#'s easlily and has no problems and uses it for work also. You can keep comming up with all these different comparisons but bottom line you can't do the same thing at the same weight and make the same power period with only those mods period. This is nothing new about these trucks it's just now it's being done more than once. Take Spartans work truck thats got 310 tune, intake and exhaust with nitrous thats it and ran 114 mph and a 12.0? letting out of it before the finish as the intercooler boot blew off with a 1.90 60ft. Haven't heard personally of a 6.4 blowing up running nitrous have you? If so prove it. Show me a stock duramax(stock turbo, cp3, and injectors) with only a tuner that makes 590rwhp and can race and drive it on #2 only and I'll say your right. Don't get me wrong I love my duramax but I can admit when we are second in the power department to another in stock form unlike yourself. Be happy our trucks are light compared to theirs or it would be like a 300 pound fat kid out running you in the 100 yard dash.

I agree with you.
In the same token.
Would a 200 pound person strap (2) 50 pound dumb bells to his hips just to run the 100 yard dash against a 300 pound kid just to prove the 300 pound kid can out run the 200 pound kid with another 100 pounds. That would be dumb. Even if it's true. You have to take it as it comes or mod it.
