How do you figure that :edit: 200 ft lbs would be a mild tuning dude? the biggest chip that edge puts out for cummins gives it 100 hp and 250 ft lbs. really toyotas not that far behind in power only 50 hp and 50 ft lbs difference.
I think what he was saying is that even with the best chip you will barley be able to squeeze 800 ft. lb of torque out of any of the big 3 diesels, the stock ratings from Toyota are pretty good ( if that motor is the one they stick with, if they even produce this truck) and not far behind the big 3.
With all the problems ford is having with powerstroke ( both with the 6.0 and with the fact that they may not be using a powerstroke anylonger) and the Isuzu...whoops i mean the Chevy having its share of issues, if Toyota could produce a reliable , which is what they are know for, diesel with comparable hp and torque (even a little less) and make sure it was strong enough for use as a 1 ton, i think a lot of people would jump at it. As far as the programmers and tuning go, i am sure that if Toyota comes out with something the aftermarket will not be far behind!
