UHHHHHH WHAT?
well after going thru your posts to see what your talking about now i know.

here are a few points to ponder

not that i care but you did buy it used right?

dont put a programmer on something that isnt 100% or dosnt have enough mods to support a huge programmer.

8" and 35s

is it 8" suspension?

dont get bent outta shape!

I apologize for flying off the handle.... its just frustating when your trying to get something to work and for the dumbest reason it doesn't. The main reason people come on here is for help, and reading your post about people being retards and needing a manual for idiots seems a little demeaning. Sorry my truck isn't taking to the module like yours. With all the trucks out there everyone's is bound to be different and pose different problems...Obviously you know a lot about what makes a lot of power and have invested a lot into your truck... I just don't appreciate being classified as a "retard" because I have a question or need help with the adrenaline and im sure all the other people that have difficulties with this feel the same.

it is kinda retarded that you dont know what fuel pressure your runnin at wot.
put the gauge in bro! this things not working for a reason? try the quad on someone elses truck?

if you have read anything on this forum you would know that there are certain steps to take to make power.
you gotta do this stuff in steps.

for example

make sure your truck is 100%

make sure you got a good vp

get some gauges installed........ ie fuel pressure boost egt,this will tell you if your truck is running properly.

get some fuel at least 15psi at wot no fuel no go

get a intake

get a exhaust dp back

get a programmer

your vp might be shot? the hypertech might be messing with stuff?
do a custom tune on your pulse if you think the tune is messed up? try another tune? maybe you got a boot blown off the intercooler, is your boost gauge hooked to the intake? whats the psi fuel wot? did ya take the hypertech out? blah blah blah?


o btw did ya fix the surge that was messin up your truck a while back? might be part of the problem?

Yes it got the surge fixed it was the apps sensor...Yes I know I need a fuel pressure gauge, believe me I know...haha.. I do have egt, tran temp, and boost gauges... exhaust system..after market air intake..and my problem was after tapping the wire twice no change.. only had power up to pl02 third time I took a box cutter and cut the insulation back to expose the wires and re-tapped it and it works...

Glad to see you guys were able to bring this thread back from the brink on your own. Please keep the personal insults out of this stuff guys, I know it gets stressful sometimes but take a breather and remember we are all on the same side here

To answer the original question (since 98ramcummins got his wire pierced good now!).

YES.

I am trying to have every tune on the website updated before I leave today.

Here is what you can expect at the end of the day.

New Pulse Update:

Adds Calc Trans Slip %
Adds Calc Current Gear
Adds Torque Converter Lockup Status
These are all going to be in the display parameters list but, you need the new Adrenaline updates also so that the data is there.
These features also work on the manual trucks as well.

We also took the beeping out of the power level changes (by customer request), made it so that the power level changes are much faster and you can even scroll through them (by customer request) and took away the little display that pops up and tells you "level 2" (by customer request). You will still have the power level indicator on the right hand side of the display.


Adrenaline Tunes:

Add data for all of the above mentioned Transmission parameters

Solves the intermittent power issue for some 98-00 trucks

All tunes have updated maps for the new fuel pressuretransducer so you can switch tunes

Modified the EGT Turbo Timer code so that it shuts off on precisely the temp you selected

All the new tunes are smoother than before with no surging on any trucks in testing

No tunes will shut truck off under hard throttle unless there is a note specifically mentioning this on the tune

Fixed a bug for TPS scaling in the custom tuning



In short, we have been busy busy!


If you have any questions please let me know.

Quad

If I recall correctly I told you these exact words in a PM you sent me:

I would have to say go with the redline. What I have right now I cannot guarantee will make 4K on your truck.
Not that I do not have something coming but, I don't have the exact answer you are looking for today.

I think it is obvious we are not standing by the wayside and we are continuing development on this product. If you cannot see that by now, then I will never convince you!!!

Either way, I can make no promises before TS but, I certainly hope to be able to have something for you guys.

My question was, when would you have it, I wasnt trying to insult you at all but i guess this is a sensitive area for you?

I am just asking a question as when all your 4k rpms will be true 4k rpms not just maybes?

I can say there are alot of people that switched to you boxes in hope of 4K me being one of them.

So ill ask again, can you see anything in the near future (less then 6months) for all of us looking for 4K? Or should we just go redline???

Alot of us still have faith in the adrenaline boxes?

If it isnt ready by TS then so be it, but a time frame would be nice.

Very nice. Those new features sound sweet. If 4k tuning happens I'll be a happy camper for sure!
