Of all the possible mods that has crossed my mind, adding power and/or speed to the SEE (which I assume is what you're referring to) never made the list. Although it's probably a safe bet that somebody has increased the power in theirs.
I run the engine at a low rpm since my backhoe operator skills can't keep up with running it at 1,800 rpm, and it's plenty strong even at 1,200 rpm for what I've been doing so far.
But having a turbo in the already cramped cab would be nice when it's 20 below.
Edit: Before someone takes this the wrong way, please consider that I'm a horsepower and torque junkie, and love going way too fast.
I just don't think that the SEE is the right vehicle to add extra power or speed to. Guess that means that even I have my limits...or I'm getting old.
