The Adrenaline has more options, more available features, bigger processor & it will flat out stomp the Juice. It is also cheaper to boot, easy choice.

What I don't like about the Quad is that some of the features are not adjustable fly like you can with the J/A. Two off the top of my head is @ what temperature the turbo shuts off at, and warm up mode parameters. You have to hook up to the internet to change these, right?

I'm not at all familiar with the Quad because I'm happy with my current setup. I'm not trying to take ANYTHING away from the Adreniline, I'm sure it's a great product.

Huh??? I think you have been badly misinformed. If the J/A can do it the Adrenaline does it and then it does a LOT more including on the fly custom tuning........

I am really interested to hear about what you were told or what you thought though.

I thought I had read that the Qzilla unit COULD be done on the fly..and multiple settings as well...I know I am going with the Qzilla unit as soon as I sell this 06 J/A unit.

See above post. These are a couple things I have heard. I'm not at all familiar with your product so please forgive my iggnorance, I'm sorry.

Question: Is there a way to OVERRIDE the EGT defueling on-the-fly? Similiar to the option the J/A has? I'm all for EGT backdown, but when it comes to racing-on-the-fly, sometimes I need that adjustment.

I think you should read this http://www.quadzillapower.com/products/pulse_cm.html You can adjust pretty much anything on the fly. Way more options & way more power than any other product on the market.

So the "PCM" is IN ADDITION to the Adreniline if I am understanding this correctly? Meaning NOT included in the price DTR price of the Adrenline.

Sounds like a great product, but can someone please CLEARLY answer my question? Thank you

If ur talkin about the Pulse monitor, then no it's not included in the price of the Adrenaline. The Adrenaline comes with the Recon style monitor and the Pulse monitor is extra. The Pulse monitor is worth every penny though.
Everything that you have mentioned can be adjusted on-the-fly with the Pulse monitor.

I'm not sure about this one though. I'm not sure if you can override the EGT de-fueling. You can change the parameter of it, but I don't know if you can override it. I'm not exactly sure why you would want to override it. If you have it set at a certain temp., then why would you override it?? Why not just set it higher??

The reason I would not set it higher is becasue 90% of the time I do not want to exceed 1250*, however, there are times that I (I'm sure many others) have pulled up next to someone and we get a hair up our a** and decide to "race". I just want to be able to quickly push a button to override the backdown feature so my module does not "shut me down" half way into it. Just my preference. Like I said, I'm learning about this product, so please educate me correctly. Thanks again.

I have mine set at 1500. I have not set it on the fly, but you should be able to. I dont bother with that stuff while driving. If I happen to get spanked one day I can usually make it up on another day. I have come to realize that I wont outrun everyone, but I can get most of them. I very seldom will run higher than 8-900, but there are times, like you said, when you "have" to get into it. If it is the fun you want just set it higher. I keep a pretty close eye on the monitor anyway. By the way, the Pulse is very much worth the extra expense. You will not regret one dollar of it.

I think I know what the issue is.

We offer the Adrenaline as a base module. You cannot buy the Juice by itself, you have to buy the attitude or it will not work, at least in this application. So in saying that the Adrenaline is much less expensive than the J/A. If you get an Adrenaline/Pulse it is a fair comparison and the cost is the same as well, I think the ADR/Pulse is a little less at MAP pricing.

I think that is where people get confused. When I built the Adrenaline I did not want to force people into the monitor. I wanted to be able to add it, or sell it as a kit for those that wanted it and let the other guys still have a lot of features without paying for a display as well if they do not want it.

With that said you can do EVERYTHING the attitude can do plus a LOT more.

When you say override EGT de-fueling, yes you can turn it to off anytime. No there is not an automatic immediate override button. You still have to go to the de-fueling menu and set it to off. This can be done quickly.....it is pretty much just like the J/A in this instance, at least the one we tested.

The only thing you cannot do "on the fly" is change the warmup setting. You can physically change it but, it does not take affect until you restart the vehicle as the Adrenaline only looks at the temp for warm up purposes upon initial startup.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Just out of curiosity what does the Pulse add over the Attitude?
Does it tap the pump as well?
Can the power levels and smoke levels be adjusted easily like the attitude?
How much more HP is the Pulse rated for over the Attitude?

Thanks!
