My opinion... Great power and torque... just wouldn't be able to pass a gas station lol, didn't sell all that well in the trucks because diesel was available... A friend use to tow his 42 foot Fountain with his 2005 3/4 ton Suburban with the 8.1, 410's and Hypertech programmer... it did fine... No longer available in the new body Silverado or Suburban's they went to a new 6.0... Still available in the bigger trucks though

well...I will not let you come in here and push ppe...there tunes are chopped up and wrong!!!!!...They turn off many parameters of the computor....and over ride many tests that the trucks need....yes they make power at your trucks expense...when you see what they shut off...you will be totally pizzed off..but it will make power!!!

SETTLE DOWN... I was not pushing there product I was saying we put one on a truck... It runs good... Yes they make power at your trucks expense... I like other tuners to be completely honest but they have nothing for the LMM and I was just letting people know that yes chips are coming out... Warranty work is easy to get done with a hand held programmer... Put the stock tune back on it and take it in... We are currently waiting for other chips to come so we can test those...

Lets see...ppe stole our medium duty truck turbo combo....which by the way is wrong...cause they stole it 2 months into build when we were giving them feed back on there 2 other bad comb deals they sold us as right.....4 months later we have the right turbo combo with the correct tunes...nothing to do with ppe garbage....all built here...f them...why don't we ask them why they sell stuff to the tune of 20 gs and it is the wrong combo...and they will not re fund money for there 2 combos...how about 30 calls to get them to credit our card for misc. stuff that went back that was not right????...yes...I could ramble for a page here....they are just typical bolt on internet thieves...lurking on forums and picking ideas out of good swamp root shops!....I can sit here and tear them a new azz with all the crap...they do not build power...they steal it!...www.efilive.com do it yourself!...

I have been Beta testing an Juice/Attitude for Edge Products over the last month with stellar results.
I had one on my last F350 for 3 years that was flawless. Should be out in two weeks.
They did have a problem a few years back with a shut off issue but I believe that is "old hat" stuff and they do indeed stand behind thier product.
