  1. Yes. Plan on changing it tomorrow. Are those Donaldson filters sold at Napa or at a local parts house?
  2. Sooooooo leave it in the jugs? ?
  3. My brother in-law is a truck driver. He delivers fuel for a Chevron jobber. A few years ago Caterpillar tried to get them to sell their oil. They left them a sample. Well yesterday they were cleaning up the shop and they asked if anybody wanted the sample. Otherwise they were going to recycle it. So guess what this guy got? One oil change with it can’t hurt!
  4. The only time you would need a computer I believe is if Quadzilla had an update for the box itself. I believe it’s been a couple of years or so since they’ve done that. I’ve never had to do it since I’ve had mine. So to answer your question once you receive the quad to get it running yes all you will need is your phone. They come with the newest software.
  5. Yes. The phone with the app would be your head unit. Sorry misunderstood what you were saying.
  6. Once you initially program and save your tune on a phone or tablet and upload it to the Quad No you do not have to have the display on all the time. I use an iPad. I only use it after I’ve tweaked a tune. Just to check my engine load and light load timing advance. Anytime you unplug the Quad or disconnect you’re truck batteries you will have to upload whatever tune you want to use. Otherwise you’ll be driving on the factory tune.
  7. You have a Quadzilla already. I’d definitely do the 7x.10’s minimum. You’ll work the VP less at lower boost pressure and with no smoke. My truck runs pretty dam good loaded and unloaded! Always puts a smile on my face. As far as studs go ya you can change them out one at a time. Just don’t forget to readjust your valves after.
  8. Smoke isn’t bad at all but those mirrors and cup holder is another story! ?
  9. I’ve never ran an Edge but I know from what I’ve read on here with my setup I wouldn’t be happy. I love the Quad. So many more things you can do with it. I’ve changed injectors 3 times. Started with a stock engine. Hy35 to an Hx35 now my hybrid. Each change I was able to write a new tune to get the most out of my setup. No black smoke. Plenty of info and knowledgeable guys here willing to help out with a Quad.
  10. Have you read through the Quadzilla tuning procedure? Are you running with the wiretap on?
  11. I would definitely check the fuel pressure on the lift pump. Idling and under a load, throttle smashed!
  12. Have you tried unplugging the edge and see if it still does it?
  13. First thing I would do would be put a fuel pressure gauge in. Check it at idle and under a load. I believe around 14psi the check valve opens. That keeps the electronics on the pump cool and keeps the pump well lubricated. The VP can run with low or no fuel pressure. It’s just hard on it and it won’t last long.
  14. Should run great! Just got back from a camping trip at the coast. First trip with my hybrid. Pulled a 7% grade with the cruise control set at 57mph. My trailer loaded weighs in at about 7,500 lbs. truck ran great! Couldn’t be happier.
  15. He’ll regret that!
  16. If you’re running stock springs you can probably get away with just supporting the frame and unbolting the shocks. Should pull out with little effort like Dieselfuture said. Ive got an air lift jack I put under the frame on the front end. It barley gets it high enough.
  17. Over 100k on the injectors. I’d check for a boost leak. Either way I’d say your sticks are worn out especially if they were set at stock bar. You’re gonna love this but I’d ditch the smarty and get a Quadzilla!! ?
  18. My son scored this at a costumers house. IMG_0621.MOV
  19. I’ve had one on my truck for a few years now. I got it cheap on eBay. Like $40 or $50. Figured it couldn’t hurt.
  20. Put the reman IP in. Dam she runs great! Before I could get 28-30 psi of boost. Now she hits 35-38. Everything overall is better.
  21. Nice spread you have there!
  22. My truck is having the same issue. Hot hard starts. The idle in park is a little erratic. And has died on my son once coming to a stop light. No codes have been thrown. Spoke with Bluechip on Friday. I ordered their premium SO pump being I plan on having the truck for a long time.
