I like the sound of this new box and was wondering what everyone else is thinking about it. just have some questions...

1. How are the 48re's holding up to the power?

2. what level on the standard box ok to tow in?

3. anyone here using the XZT module? how do you like the small power increase from the XZT?

4. Will any levels on the standard box or will the XZT box give any smoke?

I don't need much power just a little for towing. Deciding to give this new box a try but can't figure out to go with the standard box or save money and go with the towing XZT box? just hoping this is a good safe box for the automatics... Thanks for the input

I Beta tested the standard module for two months and I'm currently running the production model. NO issues, it made a night and day difference in the daily driveability of the truck. Here is what I can give you for answers.

1. Stock 48RE, so far from what I can tell is doing just fine. No slippage or excessive temps. I spend most of my time in level 3. Mainly hwy miles to and from work, with some stop and go local road use

2. You're safe in level 1 & 2, some have claimed to have used level 3. Can't and won't comment on that one. Owners manual states level 1 or 2 is safe. (I can vouch for that)

3. Cant answer that one for you.

4. Depends on what you mean by smoke. Yes, black smoke is possible, but not as much as the manual tranny from what I understand.

 

thanks for the input. I like to hear that the auto is holding up ok so far. yea i meant black smoke. how much weight did you pull in level 2?

keep the coments coming everyone and thanks

oh yea, how are the temps running on these settings? like to hear from everyone, especially like to hear from the 03 SO drivers

 

Roughly a 7.5k toy hauler loaded out.

Temps never got above 950. (unless I floored it) This was observed while towing on a fairly flat to slightly rolling hwy up and down I-5 between Washington and Oregon.
If you go with it, you wont be disappointed

 

Banshee glad to see your likeing the box

 

100% happy with it. Looking forward to that exhaust soon. I'll be calling you when I get back from my trip to get-er done. Dont forget.
