Have the Diesel Dynamics power module and love it...spin 2nd gear, rubber into 3rd and then sometimes spins a bit and every once in a while rubber on 4th but only on hard accel and cold pavement...that means early mornings here...mileage in town driving hard....3200rpm shift 3200rpm shift 3200rpm shift.....is 17.5 so far...if im easy on it ive seen 20 in town..

 

Got the xmoniter in, fit is excellent. The texture does not match the pillar but its not blatent. Overall it blends in pretty well.

 

Well I got the Edge EZ in tonight, only went for a short spin but I have to say that I don't see this big increase in power that some are claming. I guess maybe I am too use to big horse 440's and the such. Also whats the deal with the boost elbow being too long and you have to grind some off the end of it to thread it in?<br><br>I did notice that the RPM's want to hang more when you shift, result of more boost? I do only have it set on level 3 right now and not 4, I am hoping to notice more power when pulling something.<br><br>Oh ya I borowed a G-tech deal from someone and let just say they are worthless, atleast in a big truck with a 6 speed. Had readings any where from 135hp to 416hp before I even put the Edge on, was hoping to use it to measure results but it is not reliable enough.<br><br><br>Crabman:<br><br>Was the X-Monitor the right color, or do you have to paint it?

The 80 pony setting (two jumpers on pins 1/2 and 3/4 in the right bank) seems to have a little more down low. Its a solid 80 HP anyway.<br><br>Rod

 

Ya gotta paint it.

I was also told that the first generation fueling box would NOT be adjustable from inside the cab. I asked if they could retro-fitted later and was told yes.

 

I orderd up a X-Monitor today with the fuel pressure, hope to get it my the end of the week. Just have to get an air box now.<br><br>Also after some more driving I can feel the power more in certain situations, it is their, feels like it will be more noticable when pulling.

Sorry it is nothing new, I have been modifing trucks for some time now. Actually right now I have my 76 Ramcharger and my 83 1 ton in the garage trying to get them back together for summer. The 83 has to be done by next week end, the Ramcharger I got another month to get back together.

Next week end will be the first trip with the 40' trailer and 2 trucks on it, that will put the 03 to the test I think [undecided]

Here are some picts from my latest adventure out to CA if anyone is interested:

Just talked to Rod at Wildcat and ordered up a Scotty Ram Air III. Will be interesting to compare the stock box to the Ram Air with the X-Monitor and the 40' trailer loaded down behind the truck 8)
