Thanks for the input. I just laugh at people that dont run gauges that have stuff done. Shoot I had gauges before I even had the chip.

I was dumb enough to tow 12,000lb with the EZ on level 4 this past summer with no guages. No problems though but I do have guages now...

all of the pressure boxes do this. Ramifier I doubt is warmer than, say, Volumizer or, Bullydog, Quadzilla, Predator, etc. all of which I've run. With the stock huffer they all run too hot to use all the power in sustained situations. The only exception is Banks. they have the coolest running currently shipping pressure box on the planet now, owing no doubt to the timing capability. more usable power than any of the pressure boxes.

I had one, I switched to a volumizer and the results were the same. Maxed at 1400 and 41 lbs of boost. I am going to tst next. Either way you will need a converter and valve body. Torque converter doesn't hold a 100 hp chip.

If you run injectors and the banks chip and your tryin to stall up and the EGT's get too hot. The chip will shut off.

ahh, you don't want the piston protector. Well you could move the speed loader thermocouple to post turbo and gain a good 400 degrees or more.

I am finishing up an article on the Ramifier now, the product performed in an 03 test vehicle as advertised. It does increase heat as all fueling boxes do, I will post specific info on that in the article.

For a plug and go box like the Ramifier, I have to admit that an extra "100" HP or so, sure is nice

The actual increase we saw on the Dyno was 95.3 HP and an increase of 253.8 ft lbs of torque. This was on an outdoor dyno in the rain

I believe that on a day with more favorable conditions, it would easily have hit the 100hp mark as advertised.

My overall impressions of the unit are very favorable, the owner driving the test vehicle has been struck with a permanent case of the "grins"

More to come when I post the article
