Where do I begin? This tuner took all my expectations and threw them out the window it blew by them so fast!!! Unbelievable! I have only loaded in the level 4 (160hp) tune and it feels more like 200! The motor is quieter (less timing rattle), my mpg seems better even though I have been "playing" a fair bit;), and the trans shifts way better and holds the power way better than ever before! There is hardly any smoke either which is a + or - depending on whether you want to soot up that import with the tuba exhaust you just ate.

I do have one major complaint about it though that really bugs me...........back tires are going to get really expensive! :D

dont worry, you wont be burning tires too much after buying the first set! yes, the PPE xcelerator is a great tuner.

Ha, just set to level 5..:D You should see better mpg's as time goes on, also I experienced more smoke, at least on 5..in fact I asked if there was a way to reprograme to cut back on the smoke..lol

I agree with everything you said. PPE Rocks :cool:

Very happy daily driver at level 10. I love driving my truck! Wife thinks I got new programmer as she was impressed with the quick response.
