I couldn't find the other fuses, either. I just pulled the SEO 1 and SEO 2 fuses under the dash and had no problems. Hope this helps. For some reason, the pictures in my PPE manual didn't match what I had to work with. For what its worth, everything worked fine, and I love the tuner. :D

Install manual says to pull ROD 1 and ROD 2, but in diablo sports manual, those same two fuses are called RDO 1 and RAP 2. These are the two fuses at the bottom right of the fuse panel. I hope that helps.

There's 4 fues that you have to pull. 2 at the bottom right of the fues panel, and there's 2 side by side towards the top right that you have to pull. If i can find a diagram i will post it later.

Did you get the economy tuner that goes up to 120hp? I am thinking about getting one to replace my hypertech, looking for a little more power than what my hypertech has. My tranny is stock also. Let us know how it works out for you on level 3.

Gotta be careful with the stock tranny. I ran mine on level 4 with no issues, but I'm sure it wasn't helping the lifespan of my transmission. I have the Hot +2 e.t., and I put it on level 6 (Hot) just for grins- The trans was not having any of that, but it was a HUGE power difference from just level 4. I can't wait to get my tranny parts now....I really want to try out level 10! :eek:

I went with the standard which has 5 levels up to 220hp. I talked with Dan, who was very helpful. He said that the economy tuner cannot be upgraded. He cut me a good deal for being a member of dieselplace.com I think the standard was only $80 more than the economy, whenever I want to upgrade to the hot+2, its just a phone call away!!:D I noticed a little bit more smoke than stock, but I think when I put the big head on it'll clean that up

I would like to know when you run it on level 3 if you have any problems with the stock tranny. Thanks

No, you can't play with shift points but you can remove the rev limiter. You could try loading a bigger tune and not hitting the throttle as hard. That should get you power quicker before a shift.
