I decided to upgrade my injectors and while in there adjust the valves. Thanks moparman... for the write-ups! BIG help! Other than breaking the breather nipple.. everything went smoothly. Much easier than I anticipated. Only issue I really had... was getting a torque wrench on the back most fuel line nut.. so I just guestimated with a regular wrench. Also decided to do a grid delete and have my intake and valve cover powder coated. 

Throughout the whole process.. I was so nervous that when I finished it wasn't going to start or run as well as it did before I stuck my hands in there. Well... it took around 4 times cranking before I heard it turn over... music to my ears :-)  It coughed just a couple times.. then smoothed out and was purring like a kitten. I installed the valve cover and intake a couple hours later and took it for a spin.. runs great. yay!!

Thanks again for the info.............

BTW.. One of the connector tubes looked funky on one side... can someone tell me why or what the cause is/was? I wire brushed and reinstalled...

Tom,

 

The wiretap difference is HUGE.  The quadzilla can produce nearly %100 more power than stock due to it.  If you double the length of time the solenoid is help open you will inject ~2x the fuel.

In what way tho? Does it change the numbers on the edge chart? 

Main Level	Horse Power / Timing
1	40
2	60
3	80
4	100
5	120

Are the hp above numbers for an untapper pump or tapped?

Sub Level	Fuel Rate / Timing
1	33% of Fuel is supplied until 20 PSI of Boost then 100% is supplied
2	50% of Fuel is supplied until 15 PSI of Boost then 100% is supplied
3	67% of Fuel is supplied until 10 PSI of Boost then 100% is supplied
4	adds less fuel than Sub-level 5
5	adds the most fuel at low boost

Same question for this chart....

Tom... Was I right about this forum!?  

mmhmm ;-)

the chart is for wiretap.  Your edge not wiretapped cannot put out more than 65 hp over stock or lvl 2.  Anything over lvl2 is no different if your wiretap is not plugged in. 

for main level adjustments not sub level

lvl1 = timing only

lvl2 = timing +canbus fueling

lvl3 - lvl 5 = timing + canbus fueling + increasing wiretap fueling

( VERY ROUGH numbers as an example)

lvl 3 give you a max of %33 more fuel compared to stock, so canbus message fueling override + %15 wiretap ms increase,

lvl 4 gives you a max of %50 more fuel compared to stock, so canbus message fueling override + %30 wiretap ms increase,

lvl 5 gives you a max of %75 more fuel compared to stock, so canbus message fueling override + %50 wiretap ms increase,

 

Keep in mind the tuning is VERY dynamic so there is no set MS set for the solenoid to be open. The is altered by a vast number of different sensor inputs.  again the above is just rough numbers as I have no idea what edge actually does for MS increase.  

 

the sublevel just changes how much the tuner fuels before 10 psi of boost.  The lower the sublevel the less fuel is injected before 10 psi is reached.  So take all of the above then just move the point where it happens below or above 10psi

Without wire tap it limited to 60 HP period. With wire 120 HP on the Edge. With Quadzilla its up to 180 HP.

Excellent... Now I understand. Thanks a million!

Don't forget about the TST...... one of the most uncontrollable, hardest fueling boxes on the market!

 Uncontrollable?  Hmmm.  Dunno about that. 

Correction...

TST is strictly a fuel only box...

Come drive mine above level 5 and let me know if you can keep the exhaust below 1600 and the surging from ripping the drivetrain apart.....

I'll bring my truck and toolbox. Yank those twins off, yank those big injectors out and put some smaller ones in. Pull the double stack programmer and TST off. Run just one. It'll drive just fine and very controllable. 

I think tyler already has the issue under control haha.

Makes sense. I've never had it above 5 and it gets kinda... dark behind me at that point.  Below that though, silky smooth power compared to Edge.

Is that offer open to anyone?

Dare you to try an old redline box
