: Quadzilla vs. Edge/Juice ?

Can anyone post results or reasons why one is better than the other or how they compare. I was seriously looking at the Edge/juice, but Quads new box sounds impressive, sounds like they worked out some of the bugs and you can raise the revs in steps, speed limiter remover, tire size, read and erase DTC, reset Allison, and possible 3-6 mpg more 110hp and below..... http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif


Please Help Me Decide THANKS!

It depends on what you want, from what you are saying the Quad is a tuner, which changes for tire sizes, raises revs, reads and erases codes and adds power. The juice is a module, it adds power, switchable on the fly, built in gauges, monitors for tranny slip ect. The only way to have the best of both worlds is to have both. Depends on what you want to which one is best for you.

Forced Induction I'm way up north probably about 180miles north of where your located. Do you have any suggestions about the two or reasons for one or the other http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Question.gif

I just read that you can do all that same stuff that the Quad does, you can do with the Predator.... Those are both programmers and the Edge is a box (tuner). I think there is some difference already in that Edge (for now) will not change tire size, gear size, etc. I think that will happen in the near future, guess we will all have to wait and see...

You can't have the best of both worlds in one box. I think the major advantage the Edge has is the ability to change on the fly. I got waxed by a Dodge one day because I was running the stock program and couldn't change. I went with the Quad so I could raise revs as well as top speed. I also like the idea that there are no obvious mods done to the truck i.e plug ins under the hood. There will always be times when one is better suited than the other. If you are wanting to plug and play and not install gauges then I would go Juice.

I plan on going both, when the $$ start flowing more and the flexplate gets replaced http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif

the quad 215 has way more power by itself vs. the edge 150. but you sure cant beat that changing power on the fly. i have had the predator, the version i had sucked but the newer one is way better, but still the quad 215 is awsome.

Boys, if you look in his signature he has an LLY so some of this does not apply. May want to edit.

That is point 3 to point 6, not 3-6 whole miles per gallon better. If you already have gages, then it is a no brainier. In my opinion the Quadzilla Stealth 135 or 165 would be better the the Juice, but when you throw the Attitude in with the Juice then it is a toss up. One place where the Stealth wins hands down, is in exhaust gas temperatures. I have the 135 and can not get it to hit 1300* unless towing several thousand pounds up a pretty good size hill, and even then I have to lug it to make it get anywhere near as hot as most of them. The Predator is the worst I have heard of, and once you set the power with it, you are stuck with the box, unless you want to take a huge loss.


As far as I know the Stealth and Juice are the only ones that give you more power/torque then what they advertise. The Juice/Attitude 145 will give you about 160-185 rwhp, while the Quad Stealth 135 will give you about 145-160 rwhp. I have not heard about the Juice/Attitude 125.
