Yeah, these trucks are insane-o. They'll bump 100+ hp and 100+ ft/lb with just chipping, easily, often more. They're not bad for dragging b/c they're geared so low for towing. I've seen these turbo d trucks slammed and chopped (length) by aftermarket companies to promote their products. These suckers are FAST.
A buddy of mine had a F250 turbo d bagged and with after market parts. My S is slammed so his exhaust pipe was my shoulder height. He thought it would be real funny so at a light, he romped it and gave me a face full of black exhaust. I did not think it was very funny.

Sure he can go fast in a straight line but what happens when you reach a curve? I'd have bought a big a** muscle car if I wanted to just go fast in a straight line but that doesn't take any skill and hardly as fun as a car that can handle the twisties like an S.

Hypertech sells a programmer that'll give 115hp and 200tq to the current 6.0l powerstrokes, plus you add a K&N intake thats good for 15 or so hp and add an exhaust and your very easily at 700+ tq and 400+ hp at the tire.
