KEY FEATURES: • 5 on-the-fly Adjustable Power Levels • Touch-of-a-Button Control • Additional 150 HP and 350 ft lb Torque • Increases Fuel Economy* • Greatly Improves Driveability and Performance • Monitors Various Transmission Functions
The Edge Juice/Attitude is a highly sophisticated package capable of dramatically improving your Duramax’s driveability, towing, mileage and, most importantly, POWER.
Using factory-style connections in just thirty minutes you can add five levels of adjustable power ranging from 40-150 horsepower and increase torque up to 350 ft. lbs. The Juice greatly improves responsiveness and driveability, while at the same time increasing fuel economy.
The Juice communicates along the engine’s CAN-BUS data stream, from which it receives vital engine, transmission, and fuel system information. This enables the Juice to provide smooth and precise power curves that are truly custom, rather than just an offset from stock.
The Juice also monitors the transmission slippage when the torque converter clutch is engaged. The level of additional power is decreased if any slippage is detected. This prevents damage from being caused to the transmission, and also prevents the power train from erroneously generating fault codes and entering “limp mode”.
The Juice also limits the amount of power increase during transmission shifts when the torque converter clutch is engaged and also when the torque converter clutch is being engaged. This allows the torque converter clutch to engage without slipping.
When used in conjunction with the Attitude monitor you can control the five power levels on-the-fly from inside your truck. The Attitude displays all the information a complete set of gauges would and will automatically monitor and display exhaust gas temperature (EGT), turbo boost and transmission slip and de-fuel the engine to prevent excessive EGT, boost levels or transmission slippage. It also displays 0 – 60 times, quarter mile times and actual speed if you are using non-stock tires as well as a host of other parameters.
The Juice communicates directly with the engine’s ECM, from which it receives vital engine and fuel system information. This enables the Juice to provide smooth and precise power in real time under any driving condition. Imagine, within minutes you get incredible power gains, an increase in mileage and the equivalent of a complete set of gauges with one simple installation!
The following power gains are representative of an actual test vehicle. These gains were measured on a SuperFlow Dyno at an altitude of 4400 ft above sea level, and represent power delivered to the rear wheels of the test truck. The only modification made to the test truck was the addition of the Edge Juice module. Power gains may vary based on vehicle and geographical location.
Level 0: Stock Level 1: 40 Horsepower - 150 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 2: 60 Horsepower - 180 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 3: 75 Horsepower - 200 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 4: 90 Horsepower - 250 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 5: 125 Horsepower - 325 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 6: 150 Horsepower – 350 Foot Pounds of Torque Hot Unlock Code plus additional fee required for level 6. For pricing information and to get the unlock code you must complete a waiver located under hot unlock form.
Your Attitude monitor allows you to monitor the performance of your engine’s vital engine components and output values. The following parameters can be displayed on the main Attitude screen (maximum 4 at one time): • Boost • EGT • Barametric PSI • Speed MPH • Engine Coolant Temperature • Gear • Intake Air Temperature • Load% • Slip % • Transmission Temperature • Throttle% • Turbo Boost PSI • RPM • Backdown
That Attitude can sound an alert when certain engine parameter levels are met. The following alerts are available: • EGT • Boost • Engine Temp** • Speed
Keep track of your performance by recording maximum/minimum for a variety of parameters including: • Max Engine Temp F • 0-60 times • ¼ mile times • Max RPM • Max Speed • Backdown %
The Juice alone provides the following power gains with: Level 1: 40 Horsepower - 150 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 2: 60 Horsepower - 180 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 3: 75 Horsepower - 220 Foot Pounds of Torque Level 4: 90 Horsepower - 250 Foot Pounds of Torque

Put the fire back in your Duramax while increase towing power and mileage on your GM Duramax Diesel Pick Up with our new Programmer. Our programmers and update computer codes are designed to be a non-intrusive, easily reversible means of increasing the performance of GM Duramax vehicles utilizing the Allison automatic transmission. This is accomplished by plugging our DurRaptor Programmer into the direct link connector and uploading a new computer code to the PCM (Powertrain Control Module), thereby overriding the factory tuning.
Performance benefits are immediately realized in the form of improved throttle response and increased power. Long-term benefits include improved fuel economy and improved automatic transmission service life. Extensive research and dyno testing as well as customer response have shown there to be no negative benefit from the use of our enhancements to the performance, and the initial costs are far outweighed by the benefits gained by utilization of our module.
How is it Possible?
While our Programmer and new codes are designed and calibrated to increase performance, the improved tuning generally results in improved economy, this is due in large part to the inherent calibration design. It all starts at the vehicle factory. Calibration engineers have to weigh several factors into designing a calibration program for any given vehicle, including things like temperature extremes, altitude extremes, driving conditions and fuel quality. To cover a broad range of driving applications and conditions, the programmers will use a "Lowest Common Denominator" method of tuning. This means they will account for the worst driving conditions and fuel quality that is feasible and, while still maintaining reasonable performance and economy, they will base their calibrations on these factors. Unfortunately, this type of tuning is obviously not going to offer the best performance or economy. Our programmers overcome this by retuning the calibrations designed for your given vehicle under your specific conditions. While other manufactures may offer generic performance improvement products, which cover a broad number of vehicles, our engineers design calibrations based on your vehicle specific information.
Using that information, our programmers can design calibration code to provide the best possible combination of performance and economy without adversely affecting the integrity or service life of the vehicle. Such performance tuning also provides for improved vehicle emissions.
What you can expect!
Performance increases for the Duramax-diesel is achieved by dramatically improving the fuel management tables as well as the turbocharge boost controls to increase performance and derivability without sacrificing economy. With automatic transmission functions becoming more dependent on computer controls, there are a large number of performance benefits achieved by tuning the automatic transmission calibrations as well as the engine. As manual transmission vehicles are inherently more efficient, require less maintenance, and are generally less expensive than automatic transmissions, they are usually the choice for larger fleets. Obviously, there are no possible ways to improve performance in a manual transmission, at least not electronically. Fortunately, automatic transmission reap a large number of benefits from performance tuning. Improvements in shift programming can increase performance by utilizing more of the engine's operating output RPM range or "power bank". Reducing slip time between shifts has several benefits including reduced clutch plate wear and minimization of fluid breakdown due to heat. This translates into longer service life, fewer repairs and lower downtime, listed below are the general specifications for the program:
Horsepower Increase: 26% increase for GM Duramax-diesel vehicles
Torque Increase: 38% increase for GM Duramax-diesel
Fuel Economy Increase: (1/2 - 4 miles per gallon avg.) increase for GM Duramax-diesel
To order please provide VIN numbers of the vehicle. With this number we can supply a Programmer designed specifically for your vehicle, one size does not fit all here!
