I'm not sure all trucks are quite the same with the temp gauge, but the Adrenaline started working just as the needle reached the first mark after the 140 (or the low end of the temp gauge half way between 140 and 190) so I don't think you will have any problems. BTW it's only 2 degrees here currently.

Got the new software installed today, I finally have fueling past PL02 once again! There is a slight surge between 1800 and 2100 rpm still, but definitely manageable, otherwise everything seems to be working great, and this is with the old hardware.

The new control pod has new hardware that flashes 00 if you display the power level or try to change it. Once temp is up, it then fuels, adds timing, etc. On my truck, Adrenaline starts to fuel just as the needle gets off the left hash mark on the center operating range box. I'd guess closer to 165* on my rig.

I'm beginning to notice an odd pattern with the new box...about every 8-10th shut down the TT doesn't work, I start the truck back up immediately and it works just fine when shutting down again...I've gone over all the connections several times and have found nothing loose and my pump wire is soldered and sealed...(I'm careful not to touch the accelerator during shutdown until I want the TT off)

Not yet & I'm getting upset about it too, I really want to try towing with this box. I can tell it is gonna be great towing. I'm still waiting for a engineer to give us the drawings for our next project. I've been working on my truck changing balljoints, vacuum lines, installed a Airdog, changed all fluids, trying to make sure that it is ready to get a good workout.

mine is the same way but everytime it does stay running like its supposed to it shuts down like it should......does the new box that was sent out have high idle because I know mine doesn't or it isn't working.

No high idle in this new box with this tune...it's the same tune as on the website. When my TT stays on as it should I have no troubles shutting it down with the accelerator...

I installed the new box and tuning file today.
- Turbo timer has worked perfect every shutdown and the break pedal kills it every time.
- Surging has improved but is still noticeable, especially under 1700 rpm. When I am driving around empty I usually shift at about 2000 rpm so that drops me to around 1400 for the next gear and surging is really noticeable at that rpm with light throttle.
- I am not seeing a noticeable seat of the pants difference from PL03-PL10. Maybe the original tuning file just spoiled me.
- Warm up mode works great.
Quad, on a side note, the new box and control pod corrected my EGT problem of constantly reading 1832*

I'm heading out in a little while to pick up a 77 chevy 3/4 ton pickup on my 24ft Skid Steer trailer. I am happy to get to try this box out for the first time without the surging, gonna crank it up & see how the defueling works. I know the load isn't comparable to my Skid Steer, but I am just happy to try this box out. Let ya know how it does.

I was looking through the recent Four Wheeler magazine and saw a little section where they higlight up and coming parts/accessories... they talked about the Adrenaline in there and said that the gains are claimed to be as much as 180 hp and 420 ft lbs.... if thats true whos freaking truck was that on?? Because it surely wasn't a stock or close to stock(i.e. mine). Again if thats true... Edge, Smarty, and the rest better step it up.
