ppe was my first choice but it is not a on the fly unit. Maybe thats not a big deal?? If i would go with the ppe do i just put dial gauges on the window post?? Then do i just keep an eye on them or does the ppe program have paramators to watch for high EGT's?? I guess i kind of like the monitor but maybee it is just eye candy. I really just don't want junk and want to buy it one time be happy. I probably do not need to use the highest setting I am more worried about damage to the motor and tranny.. the cooler EGTs are a plus I have also looked into a SNOW water/meth system after i see what the tuner will do. thanks for the help.....

And the defueling isnt IF something goes wrong.. it defuels between shifts to help PREVENT something from going wrong. I had a Bullydog, and its a fine programmer.. :rolleyes2: as long as you dont want to make ALOT of power. The PPE tunes run 250-400 degrees cooler on my EGT's than the Bullydog did. If I had it to do all over again, I wouldnt have wasted my time or money on the Bullydog.. I would have gone straight to PPE or EFI Live. :c:

you only need 2 gauges in a DMAX.. Boost and EGT (Exhaust Gas Temp) you can get a pillar mount or mount them in the overhead console. The PPE tunes are actually smoother shifting tunes and offer more protection for your truck. Plus with the PPE you can reset the TAPS in your allison.

not to sound dumb but you mean just 2 dial gauges on the window post just so i can monitor boost and exh temp. I think I will call PPE and get a sales pitch on the EXcellerator. I assume that is the tuner you are talking about.

Again thanks for your help.

Yea, Dial type gauges either on the A-pillar which is the post between the windshield and the Drivers door, Or you can also mount them up in the overhead console. As for the PPE Programmer, I would put in a price request thread HERE>>>Price Quote - Request A Price - Diesel Bombers and ask our vendors what kinda prices they can get ya:U:

PPE website :

Standard $600= 225hp,
economy $500 = 120hp,
HOT $900 = 300hp
I guess i'm thinking standard:humm: or HOT Xcelerator:humm:

thanks for the help

I bet our vendors can beat those prices :U:

if your not looking to add a ton of power like what was stated before I would just get the edge and have gauges built in and the cost is about 750 and you can put in in yourself in a matter of an hour the hardest part of the day would be drilling and taping your Pyrometer. The edge has alarms for speed, motor temp, boost, egt's etc. but if you want the power go ppe but gauges and the ppe cost more than the edge
