Quadzilla Xzillaradier

Well I just got it installed. The power gains are sweet. the truck really moves, and the sound coming out of those stacks is amazing. I have one question, the truck blows less smoke with the quadzilla than it did with the Edge EZ. Is this the way they are set up or do I not have a good tap on the VP wire??? THanks for the help!


I think im gonna go for another drive...

Funny you should mention that. My truck blows less smoke since I installed the Xzillaraider.
I had the VA installed for a long time and with the DD3's I could puff smoke at will, now it will not blow any smoke unless I am on it hard on level three.
Even with the xzilliraider off it will not smoke....
Let me know what you find.....
Maybe quad will step in with a hint or answer.......

If you have the xzillaraider 120 hp fueling box, it doesn't do timing (no thick black down low smoke). It fuels via MAP and it probably waits until the truck has a little boost to bring in the fuel so it's not a smokey mess. Stack that box with the EZ, or better yet, the XZT+ and you'll have an awesome combo!

I agree with ^^^^. You need to stack your EZ with the Xzillaraider. I have a XZT+ / Xzillaraider stack on my struck. You really should consider the XZT+ though. With the XZT+ loaded with the Agressive tune on the top level and the Xzillaraider on the top level, MAN, does my truck smoke. I can leave thick black cloads that will just linger there. And when on the freeway, I can hammer down and there is a nice long trail of dark smoke. Now with that being said, I normally drive around with the Xzillaraider off or on L-1 and with a light throttle. No need to put out too much smoke with all of these evironmental *****'s running around.

This may be true. Its hard to notice the power gain on low RPMS. Maybe about 40 HP. Once the truck makes boost, then it seems like all 120HP come on..... Call me a dork, like the old lady does. But the exhaust noise must be x2 from stock.. Sounds like my overhead counsel is going to rattle apart..

On the other hand on level 3 I can leave a slight haze if i stay in it up to redline....

Dont get me wrong, Im not begging for black-out conditions behind my truck on the freeway. This is the first time I have ever tapped the wire and was just expecting to see a lot of smoke....

So far I am impressed with the product. Lots of bang for the buck!

Check and see if your running more boost with the quad. my truck jumped from 20psi to 32 psi, the boost may cut down on the amount of smoke.

It's easy to notice the low end increase from additional timing. You might not notice it much with the EZ, but I can tell you when it added the XZT+ to my banks fueling box it puts you back in your set straight out of the hole. It felt like a totally different truck when I added the XZT+!

If you are looking for some more smoke from the xzillaraider then just look up "smoke switch" and scan for one that has an answer from QUAD himself and there is two wires you can jump on your map sensor and it will smoke way more so I have heard anyway.

If you still have the EZ stack'em. Like the other guys said.You will have that bottom end power back, your turbo will light sooner and it will be more fun to drive.
