Just to make sure this is the PPE unit?
Reading the post on it for the LBZ seems better to get the programmer than the module system. Use the search tool and search for the name and check the post on them. But everyone has an opinion good and bad on every one of the many different programmers and module systems. But I read many post in this section. Search can list many post if you want to compare programmers. Example ' ppe quad edge ' and get many post comparing them.

I think you will get better mileage and more power with the PPE Xcellerator.

the PPE duramaximizer is NOT a good thing for fuel milage. it will only add fuel and no timing. ranges from 0 to 125HP on an adjustable knob. i have one and on a stock fuel system and with my PPE standard on level 3(120hp) i can not turn the knob over 1/2 turn bc it will defuel the engine. PPE recommends twim CP3s in order to run the duramaximizer all the way up. but you can tell a big difference in power when you turn it up

i have 06 lbz, and i just tested my fuel mpg yesterday, this is mostly highway driving. not a sig. amount of wind, running 33x.12.50 MT'S so not a light tire, im running bully dog power pup on tow setting (38hp) as well as winter fuel and no additives.
Using a meter to test filling up level ground till nozzle clicks off.
Test 1: avg speed 78 mph, 18.8
Test 2: avg speed 64 mph, 24.1
Im happy with my bully dog, im sure its giving me a bang for my buck!

well to be honest it shocked me but hey i burnt 4.18 gal on 100.8 mile trip, truck and gps dont lie, and my fill-rite meter dont lie either. I have got lower 20's lots before but i usually drive pretty hard and fast, test 1 was driving hard, and test 2 how normal ppl drive lol. I think reg cab gets me a couple extra because it lighter, but i mean its lifted and heavey 33's that are 12.5 wide so that is not very areodynamic.

I think the duramaximizer is designed to work with the dual fueler, I don't think that you would be able the deliver the fuel that it would demand without a second cp3, I did use to run one of these.
