Juice/Attitude Questions

[boatman]

I'm thinking about getting the Juice/Attitude and some trans upgrades and would like to know how much boost they make with the stock turbo, also how is the mileage, exhaust temps and power.



Thanks John

Definitely get the transmission upgrades,. . at least TC/VB. You'll need it with the Juice or anything nearing the 100hp and up group. Boost,. . it's adjustable threshold allows you to set it at a safe level. EDGE recommends 34 lbs, I believe. I've got the AFE and torq tube and exhaust mods and between the two I've not had any EGT problems. I've run it over 100mph and 1097 is the highest EGT I've seen. That was empty--no load. Power--it's all relative. For me I've tried the VA C3. 2, BDDL, BD Power Pup, EZ and the Juice. The Juice and EZ are equally smooth and IMO they are the smoothest application of the power. The VA was far tooooo hot (EGTs); the BDDL and Power Pup were tooooo touchy on the throttle and I could see where you could get into trouble on slippery roads quick. Now these opinoins are based on comparatively speaking. I'd say the BDDL is the most powerful. Personally I'm gonna stack the Juice and EZ and will be doing that this week. I'd say by other dyno posts I've seen that that should put me right on the door step of the BDDL but with smoother application of power and better fuel economy. Just my opinion and not meant to offend.

Hey, I currently have the EZ and am going to order the Juice soon, I am sure you've read the long thread I have going about vibration/RPM bounce, OT-OF-HERE, does your truck do this and if so let me know how the Juice affects it if any. Thanks Jay

Are you saying that the amount of boost can be adjusted from inside the cab with the attitude?

Problems,...? Me have problems???

I've looked down my impressive list of factory NO-EXTRA charge installed screwups and I can't find what you are describing. I've had a number of issues, but yours described above is not one of them. And NO the Juice doesn't do what you are eluding too. You probably need to get to the bottom of that problem with your dealer b-4 you install a box. Good luck.

Nope!

It's a threshold warning limiter you can adjust so you have no excuses if you blow on by it. I set mine at 34 as recommended and it performs great. I did push it to 39 once kinda to test the waters, FYI.

The maximum boost point you choose will also be the level at which "backdown fueling" (=defueling) commences. You will also select a maximum for EGT, which triggers decreased fueling.

The monitor provides an audible alarm tone that can be turned on or off, your preference. The alarm will be hard to hear unless you have the music off and the windows up.

You will still need to be careful, since your Max boost and EGT will be passed, especially if you keep in it too long.

Could any of you with the 600 cummins tell me where the EGT input comes from? Do you install a probe in the exhaust? I ordered my setup last week. Thanx.

Probe in the exhaust drill and tap pre- turbo. Hey Tom how do you like the Juice, I just got a couple more in if they arent gone by the weekend then I will put one in my own truck and try it out.
