Hey guys need some help. Does anyone have a picture of a stock lift pump or explain to me where its at. Im trying to figure out if mine is on the motor or in the tank. I turned the key on to listen for it and I didnt hear anything which might not be a good sign. I know the general area of where its at. Its below and behind the fuel filter housing if its still on the motor. I've seen two things that could be it. One is horizontal with the ground. It has a red chrysler sticker on it but i could read it because of dirt. The other is mounted vertically. Any help is appreciated

So I lucked out on a edge juice cts, but it came with the wrong map plug. My truck is the 01 and it has the plug for the 99. From what I've been able to find on the Internet is that there different voltages. One being 1.0 and the other being .5, I was wondering if I could just use a resistor to drop the voltage or if there's more to it than that. I'm assuming the map sensor output to the computer is millivolts?

So I have been trying to figure out what is really going on. I have been getting engine codes at random. the truck will be running just fine for a few days, then the check engine light will come on. it will throw a P0341, then a P1690, and sometimes a P500 I know the definition of them but I cant seem to fix the problem, I started with the Cam position sensor, replaced it, problem still occurring, but then I go back and think how it will go for a day or two without having any issues. I took my programmer out. unplugged the batteries and let them sit, hooked them back up, calibrated the APPS. but that didn't help. then I read that bad battery cables / weak batteries, and b…

I was talking to moparman1973, I’m having an issue with uploading tunes onto my quadzilla v2 on a 99 vp44 truck, it keeps saying the tunes are failing when I try to do an upload, he told me there having problems with the iquad like mine and something about @Me78569 having instructions on how to fix this problem, any info or link to those instructions? @Me78569

Maybe a stupid question but I’m having trouble finding non-conflicting information. I know the PowerMax is a fuel only box. I am trying to figure out if a box for an 01-02 can work on a 98-00 truck. I know the MAP sensors are different (plug and voltage values). I have read some info saying that unlike EDGE the PowerMax box will work on all years with a MAP adapter harness. Can anyone here confirm or deny this information? I have tried to contact TST but they are closed until Monday.

Ok... I have been having a major issue with not being able to build more than 10 psi boost. I have been trying to fix it to no avail. So, today was about 85*+ here. Drop down the high way and looked over... 1,200* EGT's!!! I was shocked! All week I had been running 600 - 900* even with these low boost numbers (10 psi max). Boost issues STILL There and now the heat issue too! I turned off my Edge, didn't make a dent. When I sped up a little it would hold or drop 50*. It wouldn't get over 1,200*, unless i was going up hill to the floor (and I pretty much have to do that in 5th to get up a hill with no boost ) PLEASE!!! Any suggestions would be great. …

I have 196000 miles on my truck now and was thinking of taking it in to a mechanic to do a tune up on the valves and get the turbo cleaned. I am also going to have them do the thermostat to a 190 and have them go through my wiring on my column gauges and redo them because who ever put them in before I bought must not have done it the best way and took corners and might have them look at the a/c... just wondering if any other things I should just have them check on while its in the shop? I only want it down for like 3 weeks because I live in Bismarck and im taking it over to Jamestown because they have good rates and I know the people working on it has done good work o…

New to the forum so not sure if anyone has asked this question yet, but I just bought the quadzilla adrenaline with iquadbt. It's flashed and installed but I can't for the life of me figure out how to tune it so I have some form of power off the bottom end, I mean I hit the gas at the light and it takes like 10seconds to get rolling...... Any help at all is appreciated, I'd hate to mess up my baby

Hello folks, I browsed search bars and had some questions. I see there are some pre built tunes for different combos. I am going to be installing 362/475 compounds and a set of 150hp injectors, I see the different injector set ups but nothing to plentiful for a compound set up? Any direction or input would be great!

I have a 02 Cummins H.O. 6 speed. I have the BHAF mod, 4'' exhaust, and I have the BD boost elbow ( not installed yet) and I'm looking at getting a tuner. My main concern is which style to go with. I could get a Edge EZ or Quadzilla XZT style that doesn't do anything to the programming of the ecm or I could get a Superchips or Hypertech that only changes the programing of the ecm. The main thing I don't like about the Superchips style is that you can't change tune while driving, but I do like that I can put a boost fooler on it and get a little more power. Which style does anyone recommend? Pros-cons. Thanks

Let me start by saying I know there is a lot of existing information on the forums but I have never tuned any gas or diesel vehicle before, and this is my first diesel vehicle so i'm just not comfortable figuring it out on my own. If you are annoyed by folks who ask already answered questions I would just ask that you move on to a different post. I have one generic question and then a few tuning related questions. First, the general question. What is the best way to go about finding a shop, or a person near me who has the ability to enable the factory high idle and 3 cylinder high idle in my ECM. I am located in Omaha so bonus points if you already…

Alright, so I just put a set of DAP 7x10 SAC injectors in my 2001. It is a pretty stock truck IMO. Any advice on tuning? I’m trying to cut down on the smoke and avoid having to put around at next to no throttle. Truck is a 6 speed, only mods are raptor lift pump, BHAF, 4” straight exhaust, the injectors, and a quadzilla with iQuad. If I give it more than est. 15-20% throttle, it smokes like crazy. I think I can tune most of that out, and hopefully get some more power out of it. EGTs are below 750 cruising and the stock HX seems to be doing its job. Any help on where to start would be much appreciated.

Alright guys so I made the mistake of using a KN Air Filter for the last 4 months, and am currently waiting for a BHAF to come to the door . But before I do my switch is there a way to get the oil out of the turbo? It's not to bad since it's only been 4 months but you can still plainly see the oil in there it's not imbedded in the metal of the turbo yet Thank god!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
