Default New stuff, Quad and Airdog

I just ordered an airdog 100 and a quadzilla adrenaline . I have been running a superchips d-box for a couple of years . What should I expect ? Huge difference, with no broken parts I hope

Got a fuel pressure code up at the time . Hopefully a new lift pump will make it go away

I would plan on trans upgrades IMMEDIATELY if you want to show off with that quad at all. If you have a manual then you'll probably be set with a clutch upgrade.My factory transmission (47RE) took about 2 months of the PCM set at 5 on a daily basis and it started slipping. After the third month it would sometimes if I were lucky shift out of first into second...1-2 shift lever was shot. I put a Goerend Heavy duty unit in with all upgraded internals and a triple disc torque converter and it rocks now!!! I've had it in since July and it holds as strong today as it did the day of the install. Good luck on future mods.

Two week ago i had a southbend ceramic/metallic 450 hp/1000 torque . About 3 weeks ago i putt 100 hp nozzles in with the stock 245000 mile clutch and that was a joke . Instant slip . Still waiting for the new clutch to break in . Got about 350 miles on it and it is getting better, but southbend says it takes about 500 grandma miles to reach full hold power . All that is thru my 6 speed with 4:10 gears . Wish I had 3:55s, be alot more fun
