Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Bought Diablo Power Puck used at a good deal

[Carolina Cummins1]

I know its not a Edge, but for $150 its something to play with and not break anything or could I. It's my first performance box so I'm very excited. I want a little more power for highway cruising and frequent towing.



I've read thier website and it seems to be okay power module. Could I get better fuel mileage?



I'm still not too clear, I think it controls timing and has boost fooler. I can't wait to install it!!!!!!

You will love it. I have one in my 2001\2500,really notice the extra power. Also helped my mileage a couple MPG. Good Luck

I think they're fine. The power output will be the same as the Edge EZ since you're limited by the ECM.

I attended a dyno event that compared the same vehicle w/various boxes. The power puck tested slightly lower compared to the Edge EZ. You bought a bargain! Enjoy! Get some gauges for peace of mind.

 

[Carolina Cummins1]

Thanks guys!!! I needed your commets to assure I made a good choice for the money. I've got all the gauges Pyro, boost, fuel p, trans temp and working on T-case temp.



I can't wait!!! I'll let you know as soon as I install it

I got it, installed it, and drove it!!! It really does make the truck run smoother, quicker, and helps mpg. I'm very happy for $150.



Question, it has a boost fooler and my boost runs up to 20lbs. Any need to fix the wastegate for more boost?

Only if you want to keep your EGTs down. Otherwise you can leave it as is if EGTs are not a problem.

the box will ALLOW higher boost without setting a code or defueling, but you need to modify the wastegate to GET the higher boost. Your HO has the fitting in the turbo housing that can be replaced with a standard boost fitting or an adjustable boost fitting to mechanically GET the boost up. 30-32 psi is a good point to stop the boost on a stock HX35, after ~35psi you lose power and build more heat.
