Its really hard to tell about boost because I only have the Attitude monitor to view boost and the like. So if I have the Mp-8 on at all the boost never goes above 24 because its fooled. With out the Mp-8 on the boost gets to about 31-35psi then as rpm's get really close to 3xxx the boost guage goes to 41-42psi. Although I am sure the stock turbo is not very efficient at that level.

interesting .... what is edge doing to get the extra hp ##'s just more timing and duration ...??? that is an interesting statement because with my regular juice with attitude and my quad xzt stack i can hit 1400-1500 in about 3 seconds flat !!!so if i upgrade to the hot and took the stack off would the power still be the same or better w/o the stack and would i see the temps i see with this stack ... ????

Hey RamNu2
I very greatly apologize. I have been giving you information that is probably not accurate on your truck. Some how I missed that you have an '06. For some reason, the '06s with the Juice run really hot - at least some of them do. My dad did the Hot upgrade for his and cannot use it at all. It goes over 1600 instantly. Not sure what the cause of this is, but it runs way hotter than my 04.5 did when all I had was the HOT Juice.

thanks for the thought .. that is funny because that is what i find the xzt brings to the stack is awesome top end.. i think alone the J/A lacks top end but has awesome smooth bottom end (IMHO)and the xzt makes the top end un-real ... i am debating doing the hot upgrade .. but i am still pondering the idea.. and well my wife has almost had enough of the addiction too ...so it might be awhile yet ..

I'm considering the HOT upgrade as well but my temps are high right already. With just the standard Juice on level 4 and 5 I can hit 1400+ pretty quickly. I have mechanical gauges and my boost hits 42ish and drops to 38 and stays there while the temps climb. I really want to upgrade but wonder if I'll even be able to use it?

I got the hot unlock code for my truck and it an 06. have it set to defuel at 1350 and it will still hit 1500 pretty fast. still fun to have for a short run. I have read allot about the J/A boost not being right above 40 but it reads the same as my autometer boost gauge. running the truck on level 5 I can maintain 40 with the defueling at 40.when I turn it up to level 6 (hot code)it will blow past 40 and maintain 45.this is with it defueling for 40.dont know if this helps anyone but I tried.

Is it a huge difference than the level 5 on your trucks. I forgot to look at your signatures to see if you two had any intake or exhaust mods. I still have a month of so before dyno so I may have more done to truck than I expected by then. Thanks for the info though.

When my dad got his HOT and couldn't believe the egts, he took it for a drive with no exhaust - just the downpipe, and no air filter and the lid off the factory box. Did not help egts.
