Are you getting any codes at all? Or did you ever have any codes and clear them when the problem started?

Ok, so I have added 60hp bosch injectors and a smarty. With the comp box on 5x5 and the smarty on 8, the truck seems to have all kinds of immediate response but no top end and no pulling through third, fourth and overdrive. With the smarty on 2 or 4 and the comp on 5x5, third through overdrive...

Dennis, it is great to hear that someone has that kind of life out of a vp44. But I just could not keep driving my 02 without having some power. I believe when you add some timing to the pump and increase the pump rate it works out of its operating parameters and limits the life. As for us that...

I believe I would keep an eye on my fuel pressure. Did you take the stealth cover back off and investigate where it pierced? The glacier should provide enough fuel to the VP44, but the electronics on the VP44 are very finicky.

Randy, Glad it worked. I would be a little concerned with the 1693 code. That is directly related to injection pump. Did the code come back? Did you replace the lift pump when you installed the new VP44? Now tell me, when you shifted from second to third and let off the clutch and then gave it...

Sounds as if there isn't a good connection between the can-bus wiring or the tap isn't making good connection. A code will appear if the wrong voltage is signaled. Did you run the new vp44 without a tap for a while or make the tap immediately when installed? Check ground wires. If ground wires...

Its a -17 pump. It pumps more fuel. I picked it up on wed. and it runs awesome. When it hits fourth and overdrive, it pulls hard. I took it to Charleston, just got back. On the highway it pulls hard to about 3300 rpm @115 mph, then it has nothing. As if there is no fuel or air left. The loud...

I am having an ho pump installed with new injectors as well. It should be ready by wed. I should see an increase in mileage, if I can keep my foot off the loud pedal. Next step, twin air suckers

I'll check Source Automotive on monday. As for the stealth cover, it still taps the wire. It is just a pin hole in the wire. It can still be seen if the cover is removed.

Ok, my VP44 is acting up. I get a PO253 code with the comp box on 5x5. I believe it will need a new injection pump. I spoke with turbo diesel and electric and with diesel innovators, and a few others and they all told me that with a new VP44 the tapped pump wire will void the warranty. How else...

I would calll Jeff Garmon. He just did my trans this week. Unbelievable shifts. Not hard shifts, like a shift kit, just crisp and firm. No hunting or overreviing between shifts. It pulls hard through the higher gears. Overdrive is awesome. It feels like I added more power, but it's just that the...

Eric, all these posters are correct. I would like to add one more observation. When you go up in horsepower, the transmission/torque converter/valve body will not hold it for very long. Even an edge or TST that adds 100+ hp will be very hard on the trans. If you add a turbo and injectors, then the...

I too am traveling down this same road. Although I wish to keep my power down a little more and have complete driveability and total assurance that my truck wil keep running every day with no breakage. If you eally are looking for that 450-500 hp number you will need a billet transmission, at least...

BDaughrty, the turbo is stock and I don't know how Jeff Garmon will adjust the turbo. There is currently no J hook installed. When I get it back, I will let you know what he did. But I have to say that Jeff is definately a professional and very much "in the know" when it comes to these trucks...

Ok, so I dropped of the truck with Jeff Garmon today and asked him to give me a ride to the rental car place so I could rent a vehicle while he repairs mine. He says "here, just take my truck" and handed me the keys to his shop truck. The truck he is letting me borrow is by no means a "looker"...

I have 170,000 miles on a stock transmission. Never even changed the fluid. I had a comp, intake, exhaust amd guages installed at 70,000. I have been very good at only running the box at 3x5. My torque converter is shuttring under load and my transmission is starting to slip. The other day I had a wild hair...

Billy, what trans modifications did you have Garmon do? I am trying to decide if I need a biilet input shaft or not.

Anyone have any experience with Garmons or Southern truck parts? I need my trans rebuilt and I need a reputable shop. I spoke to GArmon this morning. He seems to be on the up and up and knows what he is talking about. Any advice? 2002 4x4, 47RE, edge comp, 4"exhaust, quadzilla commander

I am a new member here. I have been reading posts for a while and decided to join and be a part of an awesome site. I have a 2002 auto, 4x4 with approx. 180,000 miles on a stock trans. The torque converter is going out, I believe. The truck has been shuttering when I push it hard. Now it is...
