Alright guys, so Im looking more and more into Diesel Programmers with my Dodge and I have the option to get both a Bully Dog Programmer with the Crazy Larry Tune as well as an Edge CS Juice w/ Attitude.
I currently have a PPE programmer with the Hot Extreme setting available although I just run the Tow setting for daily driving (+80 hp/125lb). That is stacked with an Edge EZ box.
I like the PPE fine but, it's the only programmer I've ever had so I'd like to try something that is a bit more shift on the fly and that will also monitor statistics.
I have a trans/boost/EGT pod in the truck currently so keeping an eye on that isn't really the issue.
What I would really like is a tuner that will keep in mind that I want the truck to work after I've installed it. I like the idea of the Edge helping with the driveability of the truck. With the PPE, it goes from very mild to very scary quick if you put your foot into it.
I think maybe what I would also need is a better fuel map but, I'd need to go have it tuned for that and I'd like to wait until after I upgrade my fueling.
Currently, I am running a twin-turbo BD Super B setup which gives more boost than I would use and helps lower the EGTs. I also have a BD Transmission with all billet internals but, still that doesn't change the size of the input shaft. The Flexplate has already been replaced with an HD version. I don't think Im going to have transmission issues but, I'd really like to not test it too much.
I've already dusted a few mustangs/camaros, one corvette, and every other Diesel truck that wants to have a go but, thats not really what Im looking for. What I want is a dependable truck that looks good, goes good, will pull anything, and will last. thats why I bought the cummins anyways, I wanted the fucker to last.
anyways, I know we had a few diesel guys on here so I was wondering if anyone had any input?
Cheers,
Matt
