DODGE COMP FAQ’s
Q: WILL INSTALLING THE DODGE COMP VOID MY FACTORY
WARRANTY?
A: No. Under the Magnusson-Moss Warranty-Federal Trade Commission
Improvement Act of 1975, aftermarket equipment, which improves
performance, does not void a vehicle’s manufacturer original warranty
(unless the warranty clearly states the addition of aftermarket equipment
automatically voids your vehicle’s warranty, or if the aftermarket devise is
the direct cause of the failure). The easiest way to check is to look in your
owner’s manual under “what is not covered”. It is recommended that you
remove the module before any service work is performed. Leaving he
product installed may affect dealer diagnostic analysis and scan tool
functions.
Q: DO I HAVE TO PIERCE THE PUMP WIRE?
A: No. By not piercing the pump wire the Comp will automatically be set like
an EZ at 65 hp, and 185 ft. lbs. There will not be an additional increase in
horsepower until the wire is pierced.
Q: DO I NEED TO UPGRADE MY TRANSMISSION WHEN I ADD THE
COMP?
A: Upgrading the transmission is not necessary, but it is a great addition, and
will help prevent torque converter slippage. It is possible to overdrive the
transmission with the comp box, so if you plan on towing heavy loads or
driving hard, you should upgrade your transmission
Q: WHAT TYPE OF EGT'S SHOULD I EXPECT TO SEE WHILE RUNNING
THE COMP?
A: With normal driving your EGT's should remain the same. Under a heavy
load in level 3 and above you could see as high as 1350 degrees.
Installing a pyrometer gauge is highly recommended to be able to manage
your EGT's. For safety, EGT's should remain below 1350 degrees.
Q: WHAT POWER LEVEL IS THE BEST TO TOW WITH?
A: Levels 2 and under are the best to tow with. This will help keep your
EGT's under control and the power increase, even while towing, is
manageable for your transmission.
Q: WHAT TYPE OF BOOST INCREASE SHOULD I EXPECT TO SEE?
A: With your waste gate disabled you will see an increase to 26 lbs in level 1.
In level 5 you could see as high as 32 lbs.
Q: HOW MUCH OF AN INCREASE IN GAS MILEAGE SHOULD I EXPECT
TO GAIN?
A: With normal driving up to a 10% increase in fuel efficiency. Fuel efficiency
can vary according to your driving style.
Q: HOW DO I GET THE BEST FUEL MILEAGE?
A: Do not change driving habits from normal "good driving mileage" habits.
Some find it hard to do with the extra power provided by the Comp.
Q: WHAT DO THE SUB-LEVELS AFFECT?
A: The sub-levels affect fueling responsiveness and control the amount of
smoke that is created under low boost conditions, this will be especially
noticeable if other fueling enhancements have been installed.
Q: DOES THE COMP WORK THE SAME WITH THE ETH MOTOR AS IT
DOES WITH THE ETC MOTOR?
A: The Comp responds better to the ETC motor than the ETH. With the ETC
you will see gains from 40- 120 hp and 350 ft. lbs of torque. With the ETH
you will see gains from 40-95 hp and 280 ft. lbs of torque.
