first actual street race since the motor went in, and i still have some bugs here and there but atleast it was to another dodge, pulled up next to 05 ram 3500 cummins single axle, stayed next to him besides the spinning off the line til 45 and he SLOWLY started walkin off and we shut down around 60, 2 times and each was the same and i was only shiftin around 4600 -a bug- so i didnt think it done too bad.

I'm wondering the same thing. not to take away from your truck at all blue, it's bad ass! but the average common rail Cummins is running around 400-450hp/750ft-lbs with the typical programmer and straight 4" exhaust. some moderate work and they're easily in the 600-800hp range and sound very similar to the basic upgrades.
my brother is running 11's in his '06 4x4 on 35's, that's his daily driver that his wife drives most of the time! that's not a "forum E.T." either, he does a lot of west coast NHRDA events.
not to say the Cummins trucks are any better or worse, they're just a whole different breed.

i did happen to talk to a friend of mine that has works at a well known dodge dealership for 10+yrs and upgrades customer cars -racing wise- and i told him about it and he kinda laughed sayin "you did good considering it was a turbo diesel, they have some power stock and modified", before i read this but ill be doin something about it in the next couple weeks as my datalogin interface and wideband went out, and doin something about the exhaust, cam degreein
