Are these 800+hp deisel tunes useful for anything more than a drag strip? ie, could a road race car be deisel-swapped and tuned for 600-800hp without nitrous/propane and survive a 3 hour race, or even a 20 minute sprint?
Any idea what the relative fuel usage is for a 600hp diesel vs a 600hp gas V8? Since there is higher compression and higher btu/gal, i'm wondering if this would be an enduro-racer's dream. Fuel up twice when the other guys are fueling 3 times means you win the race.
