pure panoRAMa i’ve had mine for a couple months!! and i would never put an edge back in it!! go follow my build @envy_45_cummins if you would that be awesome!!
This is the most in depth overview of the quad that I have been able to find on the internet thus far. It's even better than the video on Quadzilla's channel. You're the man!
This is an awesome video! Thank you for going into depth on the Adrenaline Custom Tuning, this is definitely one of the best tuning videos we have seen for our product! Please let us know if you need any help or have any questions!
i bought my quadzilla a few weeks ago and didnt know that the fuel pressure sensor is separate . Do i need to buy the sensor or could i use the glow shift gauges sensor i already have installed ? the plug looks the same
@@excaliburjeepxj I'm pretty sure that you can plug right into your other fuel pressure sensor. The plugs are identical. I thought of doing that for a few days until I got my quad sensor hooked up but never tried it. I think you'd be good to go by plugging it in there though, and then just grab a 2nd sensor later on and have them both working. It is nice to have them both giving you a reading. I will show you how I set mine up to get reading from the same exact spot too.
@@purepanorama8484 ok awesome also i m not sure if the snubber is needed ive been running my glow shift gauge for over 2 years and no issues the reading dose go from 15 psi to 20 psi but as long as it stays over 12 im happy..
You definitely want the snubber valve in there. It will settle your fuel pressure reading down and keep it at a constant reading and also the pressure spikes from the vp44 that you're seeing can damage the sensor and eventually your gauge wont work is what they claim. I'd throw the snubber valve just to get a good accurate reading all the time at the very least.
✋🏼hand raised. Want/need this in my life. I tend to think that if I had that close of monitoring I could much more easily diagnose what is "wrong" with mine. But because my '99 isn't my primary/daily driver it'll have to wait until summer at the latest. Thank you for posting.
Great video. I've done a little bit of tuning on gas engines turbo cars. But this is a whole different ballgame. I've been into Cummins my whole life and it's a weird to start diving into custom tuning like this on a Cummins. Never used to be that way with these diesels. Looking forward to it and it's so new to me ha ha. Thanks for the in-depth video. I really wish there was more in-depth stuff like this out there. I gotta say quad Zila did a terrible job giving good explanation on their product thorough explanation and instructions.
Now start saving for a tranny. I also use a quadzilla, 3 auto transmissions later finally got a gorend tranny cant be more happy. It's been in my 1999 24v for a few years now without ANY issues. They know how to build them or the parts u will need for a certified installer all over the country to put it together for you...they use build sheets and ask u many questions about what u plan on doing with your truck and build it to your specific application...none of the stage 1,2,3 like othertranny companies use...hope this comment helps you out. Keep up the good vids!
Thank you for that. Funny you mention that stuff. I go into that topic in the next upload and they're one of the spots I have on my list to talk with about everything. I hear nothing but good things about his stuff!
What's up bud I also have a 01 dodge 2500 diesel and also have the adrenaline love it thanx for all your hard work in making these awesome videos keep it up and thumbs up for cummins
There are some other things in the custom tuning that can be changed to make the truck "roll coal" but raising the fuel in the boost fueling will certainly play a role in it as well. If I'm not mistaken I think these trucks can only take so much can bus fueling though, so raising it too high may or may not be bad for the truck and it's performance. I will have to try and find the canbus fueling number that I saw as a maximum for these trucks.
pure panoRAMa I appreciate it man! Thanks for responding. I have an edge juice with the hot unlock and was considering switching to one of these quads.
Love mine I like the smoke control so I don't just dump smoke like the kids. I'm a frayed to tap my pump lol one day I'll do it but my pump is in warranty still
Did you ever make a follow up video? If so I can’t seem to find it. My vp with a edge comp box smokes down low pre boost and u think I can dial in my fuel with this tuner?
Awesome video my man. How do you change the gauge layout? I only have the big one in the middle and 2 small ones on each side. I cant seem to figure out how to change the units. Fahrenheit to Celsius. Thanks
That I cant answer for you because I dont ha e compounds on my truck. I'm sure it would work just the same though. It comes with everything you need to get it all hooked up and functioning with your readings. You do have to purchase the fuel pressure sensor separate though. Call up diesel auto power and tell them that you saw my video and they'll get you squared away with answers and everything you need if you want to purchase one for your truck. It is hands down the best tuner for 2nd gen trucks and will not disappoint you!
Love the work your doing. Quick question though off topic of this vid. How much room do you have in the rear seats. Is it brutal? Im thinking of buying one
I can fit three of my kids back there to go places. Two car seats and a booster seat. It gets a bit tight with them all back there but it works out. Theres plenty of room for me to haul some tools and things for work during the week too. It would be nice if they made a full crew cab back then, but this gets the job done still.
I just installed my quadzilla but can’t find any tunes! I was under the impression it had pre programmed tunes. Do you know where I can get my tunes to load?
Can you send me a picture of the red/white wire that comes out of the box that goes into the fuse #9. Did some wiring and the removed a lot and my adrenaline is a few years old so the colors wore off the wiring
Question is assume you know a decent amount about quadzilla adrenaline… I’m having some troubles and the support team wouldn’t help me…. So I checked all my connections, unplugged everything including batteries and I’m still experiencing the same problem. The problem is that when I have a tune turned up past 2 I get almost like a fuel cut or the wire tap is not connecting or working properly, and then it comes right back and then repeats over and over I don’t really know what’s causing it, I checked the wire tap for 12 volts and it’s got 12.7 volts so I’m kind of lost since no one seems to know. I have also tested full throttle and it almost seems to run on “stock” with no tap because there is no give power at all but a lot of fuel. I tried to launch it for testing purposes and it bucked like a bull while building boost/before and after launch until i let off because it’s ridiculous and getting annoying. Thank you for your help if you can give any.
muy buen vídeo..! i just bought a 02 dodge 24v with a super ships install (the last owner installed and he gives with the truck when i bought it) QUESTION: can i delete the super ship tune and install a QUADZILLA ADRENALINE.?
@@purepanorama8484 I always get my stuff from dap only problem I had I got injectors from them I got 100s lost all my fuel mpg dropped to nothing so I'm back to stock I plan on getting some 50s or 75s to put back in it
@@blakehatfield5354 it's weird that you lost fuel mileage that badly with 100s. I'm running 125s and still seeing decent mileage. I've been thinking of stepping my injector size up to something a little larger but I know I'll see a decrease in mileage then. I'm currently trying to work out some things for the truck and channel that will hopefully add some power and be able to put it down to the ground!
@@purepanorama8484 mine went down to 8 to 10 put in my stocks back to 20 😎 so probably gonna get some 75s maybe try it I do miss my power since I had my transmission built it don't like being stock any more it likes the power
I wish I could answer that for ya. I recommend calling the guys at quadzilla power and letting them know what's going on. They've got great customer service and will walk ya through it!
@Diesel Lover We are glad that the Adrenaline is working now. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to reach out to us and we will get you taken care of!
It's amazing, man! It is the best tuner out there for a 2nd gen 24 valve. The options you get with it far exceed any other tuner on the market. If you order one directly from Diesel Auto Power or Quadzilla Power and mention that you came from my video it also helps the channel with filming content that everybody has requested to see. Either way, I highly recommend this to anybody who wants a tuner on their truck!
Awsome man. Gonna wake the truck up. I just installed an ez lynk with Hpp tunes along with the normal deletes, and watching you show the feteures of the quadzilla it seems they have some of the same similaritys. I used my old Samsung Galaxy s7 for my gauges.
Can't get my transmission temp to read. Did u have the first part of the sensor completely bottomed out against the transmission? Idk what the issue is.
Yes, mine was in there all the way but I think that actually needs to be pulled out and then the sensor needs to just be installed on its own possibly. The probe on it looks a bit long though. If you look in the instruction book it looks like the adapters and everything are installed but if you look on the website at the trans temp sensor its just the probe so that got me thinking that the first adapter is not needed maybe. I'm nervous to pull it out of there and screw just the probe in because I don't want it to hit anything as the trans in engaging.
I was thinking the same thing. However I think you have it installed correctly and they sell just the sensor not the adapter for our transmission. I could be wrong. The reason I asked is because I wasn't getting a reading. Then I learned the sensor only reads 100 to 240°. I didnt drive my truck enough to get a temp reading. We are probably both good to go!
@@blawsonbl I believe it is correct too and that the temp probe is too long to just be installed by itself. I have driven my truck quite a bit for work since installing it and the reading still stays bottomed out while in motion. I find that hard to believe that the temp shouldn't come up at all while the truck is in motion. That's something I'll have to ask Quadzilla about because it's got me feeling a little "slow" in my brain and I don't like that feeling lmao.
@@purepanorama8484 I am the same way! If you learn anything let me know! People say that port isn't the best place to get a reading because it's stale fluid. As in it's not flowing. Thus not giving you an accurate reading.
@@blawsonbl I have read the same thing. I will certainly let you know if I end up doing anything different and it seems to work better than the current setup.
How safe is this tuner for a stock truck? I recently bought an 02 and I am unsure if the trans has been modded. I really don’t want to spend tons of money on a new trans. Also do you have an aftermarket lift pump?
Most definitely need an aftermarket pump as well as the factory torque converter starts to slip at about 650 foot pounds and the base tune on the quad makes about 900 something so at minimum need a torque converter

Great for power but when this thing decides to stick wide open it definitely gets your attention so anyone driving on the street with this thing be careful
iv heard it could be quite glitchy thats why I went with the Edge CS2 instead with hot unlock.. makes plenty of power.. never fails never lags and I dont need to use my smart phone but the extra tuning is amazing with the adrenaline which is something I which I had at times.

Sorry, John! Now that I finally decided to switch over, I'm wishing I would have got this thing last summer when I first started thinking about it.
Only way to monitor the tuner is with the phone?
Could you show how you have your puller gauges and there adrenaline ran in the fuse panel
Love mine I like the smoke control so I don't just dump smoke like the kids. I'm a frayed to tap my pump lol one day I'll do it but my pump is in warranty still

Did you ever make a follow up video? If so I can’t seem to find it. My vp with a edge comp box smokes down low pre boost and u think I can dial in my fuel with this tuner?
Can the Quadzilla read the ECM fault codes?
Blue chip redline box doesn’t have all the fancy gauges but will definitely rev higher and fuel harder
Awesome video my man. How do you change the gauge layout? I only have the big one in the middle and 2 small ones on each side. I cant seem to figure out how to change the units. Fahrenheit to Celsius. Thanks
Will this tuner work with a manual trans?
How does this baby work with twins at 60 lbs boost
