The 1/2 ton was called an F-1, the 3/4 ton truck was referred to as an F-2 and the F-3 designation meant a one ton carrying capacity Pickup. The "F" series continued through F-8 for heavy duty trucks.

Default Turbo wastegate

I have a jacked up ford f 250 turbo diesel, and always looking for little tricks to get a little more power. I have a buddy who told me he used to kink the line going out of the wastegate on his kenworth, and he got 15 more horse. Is there any chance of building up too much boost and blowing the turbo, or anything like that going wrong?
