GOOG Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Just installed the new power programmer. I'm taking a machine to Mahwah tomorrow to try it out. Any predictions?

GOOG Posted November 8, 2015 Author Share Posted November 8, 2015 Took seconds to install. Put it in the 30% mode. Took off for North Jersey Friday morning. I was not impressed. Actually I was disappointed. It does pull better, but I was expecting more. Maybe my expectations were not reasonable, I took the same size loader up on Thursday (621C Case) that I took on Friday, so the comparison was fair. It pulled the few hills on 287 a little better. It does spool up through the gears a little quicker, but it doesn't feel like 120 additional HP. Truck didn't smoke a bit, and still doesn't. Boost is still exactly the same (30 lbs.) pyro still the same, (climbs up to 850-900 and stays put) water temp unchanged. All that being said, it isn't doing anything detrimental to anything, and it does run better, I guess it's a good thing. I think it's fair to give it more of a chance than one little 200 mile round trip for a test. I wondered if I had it set wrong. Paperwork said put switch toward wires for 30%. That's where it is. - Tom Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42514-blixxton-installed/#findComment-310509 Share on other sites More sharing options...

fullfuel01 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 what brand or where you bought it? I had 3 from Illinois dyno center and it was pure Junk. I had to return 2 because they were faulty (any position didnt make a change) and the third one was working for ab out a month and finally roasted the truck module! they dont stand behind what they tell you and dont even respond to the phone.
