I've been using it on my 2003 350Z and I can say my car is still running like new.

I also have a Dodge with the 5.9 Cummins, stage 2 cold air intake with a straight pipe. We must have identical trucks, but mines an 05. All I can say it that I ran the smart on performance which adds 100hp to your 325 making it 425hp, and boy does it make a difference :) (ran it on performance for about a year) . With that being said I just changed my trans last week, lol. Got a complete rebuild all heavy duty parts for 2500$, with the dodge tranny you will probably be doing the same thing. Also, I'm 33 so I didn't do a whole lot of "beating" on the truck. Just your average race hear and there. ;)

I love my, I got it last week and it makes such a difference !!! I am running on the 1st setting and it is amazing how it performs !!! It is smoother and shifts great !!! I can see that if you run the other settings it might hurt the transmission but on this setting it is no problem !!!

I have had this programmer on my '96 7.3 for four years. Never a problem, and it does improve the performance . I haven't noticed any better fuel mileage, but it does improve shift points when towing. I wouldn't recommend using it on the higher settings without a full set of gauges -- EGT, Boost, and Transmission temp at a minimum. I put in an extra transmission cooler just to be safe. Running at higher power settings puts extra stress on the engine and tranny and makes things run hotter. Running synthetics will also help keep the heat down.

I installed one in my 2000 TJ 4.0 and I am very pleased with the performance,Fit, and finish. You could install it in a show car. And it's 3 core COOL.

Sorry, but I returned the item because I did not notice any difference w/ my mpg's. I also had and returned the k&n intake system. Both were installed at the same time and taken off at the same time. Hemi's are just horrible on gas!!!

I would check MSD'S tech sheet. I think they may have a harness for that. I used their harness to my Ford EEc distribute. It's worth the performance and fuel millage gain.

I installed mine on a 68 mustang w/302 and I did nothing on the interior of the car. I followed the printed instructions and the video instructions from pertronix. The procedure took about 30 minutes and went just like the instructions said it would. The car fired right up and has been running great ever since.T.K.

Yes and try not to go abovd 1200 watts that way you can get the best out of it. I bought a terminator series subs and my kia optima pounds like hell. Enjoy it!

Susan,I added this to my 2000 GT Mustang automatic V8 a couple of years ago . My transmission was chattering during shifts. I added this, and it worked! I was told to try this by a Ford mechanic. Hope this helps.

It worked with my Rock Warrior Crew Max. I now have outside temp, avg mpg, instant mpg, and distance to empty. This is something that should be stock on all vehicles, yet we get to pay ~$70 extra for aftermarket accessories.

You can definitely feel the shifts are quicker and firmer. The biggest difference by far is the extra 100 HP and torque. It absolutely is the best mod I did for my 02 F350. Gas mileage went up about 5% too. Not much but when it turns your truck from docile behemoth to a sports truck AND gives better mileage it is a win win.

Yes I tried this on a 2C Diesel Corolla's Transmission, My friend owns that car now and it has done over 300,000kms and transmission is still living good. I had Certatec when it was 120,000 and I noticed that it shifts softer and smoother. (Regular oil changes are also done). In addition to that I tried this my Unimog's hubs as safety to minimize damage incase of oil leak. Best results are observed in Diesel Engines!

Yes. In all vehicles. I totally disagree with the statement about it not being worth it if you have the 6 speed tranny. This unit kicks ass.

I'm running the stock receiver in my team associated SC10 with no issues. I'm also running a 87t spur gear with a 16t pinion gear. I suggest using a 2s lipo. Anything bigger and the truck gets out of control. I still am hitting over 50km. Perfect for dirt track racing. I hope that this helps. CHEERS!!!

I used it in the trunk of a Mustang and it really toned down the road noise. I'm about to use it in my Impreza and I'm very confident it will work. Keep in mind to use several light coats and allow for adequate drying time.

I live in a Chicago and I don't see any improvement in mpg in the city but on my trips to Detroit on the highway I might get 1 or 2 mpg improvement that I can notice. It was worth it regardless, makes the car sound better. Pair it with a decent exhaust system..even a pair of flow masters 40 or super 44 series and you will pretty good. U have this on a 13 2lt range camaro and I get good compliments.
