GMC Duramax Turbo Diesel 0-60mph

Bone stock GMC Sierra 2500HD equipped with the Allison 5 spd automatic. Did 0-60mph in ~8.5 sec. This thing would probably put my 924S to shame! Not bad for a diesel. This thing pulls 4 vaulting horses no problem...even up hills!

Duramax Rules! Powerstroke Drools! :P

55+ lbs of oil pressure?

you've got some thick oil son!

mine hardly gets above 50 ever. love the vid though

[GFVagent007]

@jkans924 Looks to me more like 65, but that's only about 4.5 bar...not bad. Funny thing is, I was looking at some stock Ford 6.4 and 6.7 vids and they aren't any better. The Duramax is an awesome motor. Too bad the injectors are so problematic.

Got to love that 2nd gear chirp lol

[GFVagent007]

it's actually just slipping on some metal plate in the road coming out of the toll booth.

[dennisleslie]

it's not a car, it's a truck and it's diesel

[BMAN294]

that truck is haulin ass!

[Bluejay0917]

That was slow dawg a stock tacoma would do that in 6 seconds

[FORDGTFANATIC]

@GFVagent007 in the lb7's

[mccrackenphillip]

YA TIRE SPIN

[strumem90]

is it weird to like Chevs but not GMC's?? O_O

[jdm71895]

@alexwelter211 plus that was still first gear 

[MikeReiner]

I love diesel engines, I don't care if my truck is cummins, duramax, or powerstroke, I just want to be a diesel.

[jdiep78]

@250honda Yep diesels run low rpm. My Cummins is the same.

[jdiep78]

@JustinHansen6669 That is not the redline. That is the "you blew it up" line.

[dmaxtyler11]

i have 4" turbo back w/ 5" tip, intake and efi ive tuning putting out 415 rwhp on my 2006 duramax. it will do 0-60 mph in 5.5 secs. i can smoke most regular cars and trucks out on the road. i would have more power but i need my stock 6 speed allison built up. 420 hp is around the max you wanna push through a stock allison. but i drove my truck stock for half a year and they are dam fast for a bone stock truck with lots of power.

[sublimedward]

@superdutykaiser why would u say that? with all the problems Powerstrokes have had! Duramax has been undeniably best all around light truck diesel since it came out and the reliability is right up with the cummin's and the powerstroke is no where close to that... so where do u get the bases for that comment?

[gravedigger454]

Not bad, my S10 with a 4.3 will accelerate the same. Quick little truck. Cant floor it from a dead stop tho all itll do is spin, cool, but bad at the same time lol. The instrument cluster looks bout the same lol

[rmr411]

@GFVagent007 atleast your honest

[JustinHansen6669]

@250honda. no it redlines between 4800-5000. the red your seeing is not a solid line, its dashes, its like a pre warning. in my lbz is my optimal shift point, where my turbo is at its maximum output and i getting the most power possible.

[superdutykaiser]

hahha its still a shit chev!

[chris000089]

wow...pretty slow

[250honda]

redlines at 3200rpm? wow.

[frank12815]

i just got 6.1!!!! but thats with a chip

[FORDGTFANATIC]

i took the tune off of mine a few weeks ago and tho it was alot slower it still impressed me how quick it was with stock tuning and a 4" exhaust

[FORDGTFANATIC]

you are just a pole smoker

[willis700bowler]

GMC= Gay Mans Chevy

[daviddpb75]

Our company truck Big Red does HAUL ASS. Will do it pulling boats and gas trailers, show trailers. We got it chipped and she just keeps flying past most any traffic.
