YEAH IF AN DIESEL ENGINE REVS TOO HIGH IT WILL ACTUALLY START TO RUN ITSELF AND WILL REV UNTIL ITS DESTRYED, OR YOU PU SOMETHING OVER THE INTAKE TRACT TO SMOTHER IT, BUT MOST LIKELY IT WILL KILL ITSELF BEFORE YOU EVER HAVE A CHANCE... TRUCKERS CALL IT... LIGHTING ITS OWN FIRE..... NOT GOOD.... NEVER ACTUALLY SEEN IT... BUT HAVE HEARD STORIES... DOESNT SOUND FUN TO BE THE DRIVER

haha.. when i had my 03 ford diesel.... if i had a rice burner with too much bass pull up... i would just stall up and floor it i could fill his car with smoke in a matter of seconds
at the time it was a combination of injectors that were a size too big, and a turbo that was a size too small

If you could see the other side of the truck, you would see a big cloud of black smoke (my brothers Dmax) Trust me, Diesel guys LOVE to see the black smoke coming out the tailpipe... And Dmax's are cool, because like everyone else has brought out on here, a good tune will help tremendously with hp...With just the Edge With Attitude Tune, you get an extra 100hp and like 150ft/tq i think... But regardless, my brothers truck sitting on 37's runs a 13.7 with just the Edge
if they go on some sweet cover of a magazine though, i'd want my name on it.. LOl 
other than that... don't care at all
