My guess is guys, that with GM involved with Mr. Banks, this is also a research and development project. That will most likely mean that, in the not too distant future, we may be able to get our tow vehicles in the 400+ hp range. I might be wrong. Just my 2 cents worth.

After all, with all of the different diesel engine manufacturers, there must be something about a Duramax that makes this all feasable.

I'd like to see the tires light up on that truck! I wonder if this voids the warranty? LOL

I didn't see an On-Star antenna on that truck. Wonder where they hid it.

Hey guys, Dodge Cummins owners have been making well over 400 rear wheel horse power for less than $1,000 investment for the last 8 years. I'm running over 400 now with no problem right now. No high exhaust temps. or over heating running AC and any accessory that I want. Will pull the 3500RL very easily with no strain or problems whatsoever.
