I never had issues with burnouts on any of my gas trucks.Here's what happens when i try.Just enough brake so i cant move and as i press on the (gas pedal)the engine wont rev.Doesnt build up anything,the rpm's stay the same.I can put the pedal allthe way to the floor and it won't do a thing.I'm not sure what else i can do.Maybe i should have got the EDGE.My brother inlaw put it on his 03 psd and it really woke that truck up.But he can only tow on level 2.He said he doesn't really know if it helps him towing or not.My camper weighs about 6500lbs.so it's not real heavy but i want to be safe with the truck.Longhorn Are you towing very heavy on the max setting? If my truck has a issue what could it be?I liked the EDGE for the safety features also.I'm in the process of getting guages.HYPERTECH told me i didnt need them,but i think i need them. Thanks for the help guys.What is the differance in a BOX vs. PROGRAMMER?By the way when i first hooked up my programmer i had decent smoke out of it,than after a couple days it smokes less than when it was stock.Does this sound normal?
My big trailer weighs more than yours empty, then I put up to 21,000 pounds on the deck. Bare bones it is 7k empty, so close to 30k when loaded. This one is a triple axle gooseneck...
I also have pulled a 14' bobcat dump trailer, it weighed 5k and the bobcat about 8k with the attachments...Pulled this every day...
This one is an old pic, but the heaviest load to date...24k on the deck, and no not legal, but I had to get it there...

Does the Smarty or Edge let you go above 104mph. The Superchips did nothing for the limiter. It gets there pretty damn quick but YA this is all she wrote.

I believe that is at 2500 RPM. I had a company Vehicle 2001 Dodge 5.9 and it would go up to 114MPH at 3000 RPM

jimbow, Can you explain why you would need or want to tow on the programmers highest setting? I run the Edge on 2 or 3 and that's all I ever need. Toy hauler and toys are 11-12k and no issues on moderate (6 degree) climbs. No overheat or high egt's and a steady 55 mph when climbing. 35" tires break loose on any setting too.
