I bought a 36' enclosed goose neck trailer and an 05 LLY EC Dually. Trailer is pretty trick. Should have a big ass Max'd Out Racing Logo on the side, should be pretty easy to spot.

That is sweet :D you guys will be rolling in style:cool2:

Not sure those forged pistons would like all that street driving, don't you think the decals and roll cage would be a little obvious?:eek: it is street legal however.

im sure you'd be just fine with forged pistons and DD

Whats the big deal running forged pistons on the street? Is there something different about diesel then gas when it comes to running forged on the street?

My old Fox body had forged TRW pistons from the factory, it had over 160K on it with no problems.

Thanks gents! Going to do some testing in Boise this coming weekend. I've had some time to look at tranny and ecm logs, room for improvement for sure.

Going to try and dial in Nathan's standard s300 kit/ecm/tranny for this week, and then Nathan will work on the real set of turbos designed for racing applications at a later date...

You are probably right, just not willing to chance it at this point in time. To my knowledge it hasn't been done in a dmax with this large a build, yet. Will trailer it and try and make the motor last the year. Besides the race seat would kill you driving it very far.

Here is a video done by a friend in the Idaho Diesel Power forum showing the inside of Max'd Out going down the track in Boise yesterday. You can see and hear out fueling problems on the lauch. 60's totally suck, leaving at least 2/10's on the table there, Rob will get that fixed this week. Great video however, gives you a feeling of what a 10 sec pass in a Dmax is like.
