i love this, you guys think you got it bad how about this, i am from missouri . i paid elite diesel to come get my truck and bring it to there shop cause all the research was they were a good and knowledgable shop and produced there own parts ect, , my truck ran great when i sent it to them the only issue was the ever know resivor pucking of antifreeze when you really get in it, other then that the truck ran great, so they came and got it almost 4 years ago from this date 4-3-11 while it was there we decided to go full build we installed cam, pistons, injectors, complete fuel system, twin turbos, 10 phantom gauages, oil coolers, methanol injection and nitrous witch has yet to be used cause iam scared the truck will blow apart, anyways all the bells and whistles ect... 1st off it took them almost 4 years to biuld a engine, , wooow, during the time it was there i had to practicly fight to get to talk to someone and get ahold of people to see the statis of my truck, it was a 4 year damn mess . i told them from the start i want to tow with this truck and would like to have around 600 hp at rear wheels before the nitrous kicks in, so from the get go they new i needed to be able to tow a big race trailer with this truck, i get to colorado the other day to finally pick my truck up from pueblo, co . we go for a test drive and the truck has no bottom end power whatsoever, to pull into traffic would be suicide especially with my 18, 000 lbs trailer . we drove it here and there and we were at the shop for about 4 hours figuring certain things out and i was not happy, so i get the truck and start heading home and wouldnt you know it the truck is pucking antifreeze all down the side of my cab under the frame all over, egt are running over 1200 degrees, the turbos wont spool up untill you rev the engine and try to keep it above 22-23hundred rpms if so it falls flat on its face, on top of that there is exhuast leaks at passenger side and smell it in the cab, these turbos are so big they dont belong on a street tow truck they belong on a sled pull truck, one turbo is 80mm the other is 65 or 70 mm, how the hell are you gonna spool those unless at every stop sign and stop light you break torque it and spool the turbos to at least 2200 rpms so how the hell can people be on here standing up for elite diesel when all i see is crap in front of me actually $34, 000 thousand dollars worth of crap that i paid them for what was supposed to be good work well i cant tell, all i can say is if this is the work they do id rather walk ... i geuss we will see what type of response i get from the e mail with all the issues that are wrong with the truck, but iam glad i own my own company cause if not my lawyers will have a field day with this crap tastic job, i really had the most worst exsperience in my intire life at elite diesel, and if anyone wants to challenge that please do cause i have e mails and recordings ect .. and days they asked for payment and i did my part but they shure as hell havent done theres cause if so why is my truck having all these problems and by the way, when i stop on a hill and then start again it wont move just makes wind noise and little at that, TURBOS ARE TO BIG GENIUSS, , , , , ITS NOT A STRIP TRUCK ITS A DAILY DRIVER FOR TOWING, , , ANY EXSPLANATIONS
