3 hp quadzilla?

i put the quadzilla xzillaraider on about 2 months ago she works good smooth power. quad said it should put 120 hp to the ground he had seen it. well from my base line to level 2 it showed an added 64hp pretty good considering it says 70 hp. when we went to level 3 it showed 67 hp ????????? what gives? i always thought there wasnt much difference bettween 2 and 3 anyone else have these results ? do i have a bad box?

There may be things on your truck limiting its ability......clean fuel filter, good fuel pressure, clean air filter? Just saying there could be more to it than just the box. I can't see where it wouldn't work as well on one level than another unless there was something else limiting it.

Isn't the higher lever on the "pump wire" if so you might wanna check your connection...

Mike, sounds like a pump wire thing to me too. I'd check your connection at your VP and/or make sure you tapped the right wire.

It happens all the time. Make sure you get the wire closest to the block. The module will still fuel like an EZ through the canbus and map connectors. You just don't take complete control of the VP until you tap the wire going to it.

I thought the quad boxes had to have the wire tapped or they would not work at all. Huh.

The XZT boxes fuel hard when you turn them on, but they do not tap the pump wire. Without the correct wire tapped, your Xzillaraider is basically running as an XZT.

Same thing goes for an Edge Comp. Without the wire tapped, it has the same lower power as an Edge EZ.

Did you VERIFY you tapped the correct wire? Is the connection done poorly?

IF you did tap the correct wire and have a solid connection, then there may be a problem with the box.
