View Full Version : 2.8L z3 vs. Ford F250 Powerstroke TD
krnz3 10-30-2006, 01:44 AM I was comming back from church and I spot a red (not sure what red) E36 328i convertable... I play with the dude and try and get him to race me, but after chasing him around for a few minutes i pretty much gave up, because of traffic. So we both get on the ramp from i405 south to i520 east. I spot him in front of a huge lifted Ford F250 TD. So I pass the Truck and I guess I accidently cut him off trying to get behind the 328i for one last try to get the guy to race. (I don't think I cut him off, cause i had my blinker on and checked my blind spot). So, I notice these super super bright lights and someone honking,it's the truck, then I hear his turbo just spool like crazy probally one of the biggest turbos i've heard, and hes just roaring past me. So I dont like that so I just floor my car and he's allready like 2busslenths ahead and me being a lighter car catch up to him in a matter of seconds. I could've killed the guy in a race but the @$$hole kept swerving so I couldn't pass him, so I run up right behind his @$$ and the open HOV lane to the right of me (i520 east HOV lane is on the right) and I floor my car and past by the big truck. I slow down a bit and I roll my window down give him the finger and get on my ramp as fast as i could, knowing he couldn't take that ramp corner at high speeds... anyways that guy was a d!ck
ashamans 10-31-2006, 12:14 PM what year could you guess?
the 6.0 powerstroke is a powerfull motor stock(like 99+ i think)
and the 7.3 has power, but is a slow revving heavy bitch
krnz3 10-31-2006, 03:25 PM was the older... 99-01?

6.0s were in mid '03s up.
Good run, those engines can put down some serious power when done correctly.
We've got a '97 with the 7.3 and 245k on it. Runs as it did brand new.

Good luck playing with a modded one. Suckers are quick. The new 6.4 coming out for 07 is a hoss too. variable vane biturbo 6.4 liter.
650 lb/ft. And it can be EASILY improved upon. boost controller, remove the EGR coolers, add intercooler, 30+ lbs of boost all day.
6.0s were in mid '03s up.

This information is correct.
bmw2stang 11-01-2006, 12:23 AM People get so stupid on the road you were dumb trying to chase after him lucky he didnt fire a shotgun at you or just run your tiny car off the road use your head people get shot nowadays.
krnz3 11-01-2006, 04:41 PM Yeah, i've seen a TD truck with some basic mods like chip intake and custom wesgate and probally other bolt-ons kill a stock STi from a dig
ashamans 11-05-2006, 05:04 PM k couldnt rember which year, the company i work for has 1 05(man) and 2 06(auto) bone stocks and their so fast, it will pull anything like it wasnt there
whats cool about them they have boost gauges stock and they dont get into the red intill about 40 psi(i have only seen about 20 psi)

Maybe in Dubya-land they do ... we're a bit more civilized up here, north of the Mason-Dixon line...
BMW///M3sdn 11-05-2006, 11:17 PM ive been beat by a 04 f-250 with intake, exhaust and chip. I was barely at his running boards when we started too, its too big to go that fast.
joeympower 11-06-2006, 12:19 AM One time i cut off a big f250 and when i stopped at the next stop light he was so close the me, that when the light turned green and i took of, the top of my trunk tapped his bumper when it jerked downwards. I took off completely normal. He stopped within an inch of me and didnt hit me. But after i tapped him he turned right away and i immediatley got out and checked my car but it was fine. Moral of this is to not mess with hicks in there overly large trucks because they are ALL assholes and are always experiencing road rage. Id hate to see a bimmer hurt by a big ugly truck.
