I am talking for the cummins here (not the two other turds)
it is easy and relatively cheap to make alot of power (especially on the P-pump motors)
thats not the problem.... its putting that torque and power to the ground....
you obviously have not priced hard driveline parts for a diesel application have you??
better check into that....before you sound intellectually challenged again

I have less $$$ in power modifications to my WRX then it would cost to put the fallowing modifications on a diesel truck(of your choice): Edge Juice with Attitude Monitor, MBRP 4inch Turbo Back Exhaust, and a K&N or AFE intake. The prices I figured out for those products are at MY COST. Not, what you walk out the door from a shop, or off the internet.
A Diesel truck with those modifications may be able to pick up 160+ rwhp. However, just because it has much more power than it did before does not make that dramatic of change in its straight-line performance. However, when you put 12,000+lbs behind it will make a HUGE difference. It take a whole hell of a lot more then just adding power to a diesel to make it go fast.

ugh...i hate it when people think that their diesel (cummins, powerchoke, durashit) are the fastest thing on earth because they can now hear their turbo because of the intake and exhaust upgrades and blow a little black smoke because they have a chip...
now i am not hating on REAL diesel owners, the ones who arnt a bunch of kids with monster stickers all over the place. i love diesels, all hail the p-pump! it is fun when you are driving a HIGHLY modified deisel and beating up on vetts and camaros and other stuff on the freeways.
and as said in the above posts, diesel parts are not cheap! especially driveline parts ei: nice dual disc clutch is $2300, trans from gorend with billit ins and outs is $6000. yeah the power adding parts arnt that much if you know how to shop, my buddy has a little over $1000 in his twin setup on his vp44 truck, s475/s357, the s475 was brand new from a turbo shop in phoenix, and the s357 we got from a junk yard off of a c9 cat i beleive, and got it rebuilt with new everything including ballanced for a little over $100, all the piping we did ourselves in our garage, from the full 5inch turbo back exhaust, to the 4inch charge piping up front

thats about all you need for some fairly big numbers with the right tune....i've seen older (as in pre 03-04) trucks at 800whp with just those mods and billet internals on their trany....newer ones like the 6.4l powerstroke can make that with intake, intercooler, 4 inch stack, tune and a few tranny goodies to hold the power
