Got my ass handed to me...
 
I've seen A 24-valve Cummins B-Motor run a 12.9 on nitrous at misson, B.C. but I wasn't ready for what happened last night. I was taking off at a stoplight kinda hard cuz I needed to get over one lane past a relatively stock-looking dodge truck. When I heard the bass deepen and the turbo spool up on that thing, I nailed it. Well, I guess the Dyno-Mite Diesel Performance in huge letters on the box should have told me he had some torque. I could catch him eventually, but that SOB could accelerate hard! Anyone else ever see a quick diesel?

I saw a new beetle TDI, turbo diesel, the guy said he was running 13's, and it looked pretty quick.

Volkswagon turbo deisel beetles suck ass. That guy must have doubled the boost to make it seem at all decent. They run a very low 19 stock. :'(

That's what I thought too, but it did look pretty quick.
His redline was 4000rpm.

but torque on a turbo diesel is twice as much as what we make on our motors..so Yes they will pull on us hard, unless you have a big turbo then youll be fine ;D isnt that right Jeff!

Autotrader rates the 2002 RAmM with the HO Cummins 5.9L 6 Cylinder 245 hp Turbo Diesel
* Horsepower: 245 @ 2700rpm
* Torque: 460 @ 1600rpm
Thats only what about 4 times the torque of a civic ;D

Have you heard of a beetle RSI? It's got a V6 Twin Turbo Motor (not joking). It also has AWD, and it has extreme potential.
