Pressure box recommendations

Need some advice please. I've got the Dr. Performance box now but took it off. Can't stand how when you get on it and let off quick the engine keeps fueling. If you were doing a quick street race you literally have to stand on the brake while the engine wants to keep fueling. Take the box off and it runs fine. I'm using a BullyDog and had them stacked. Love the mileage increase and throttle response by having more pressure, but don't like how the Dr. box runs.

I thought mine was doing the same, put a rail pressure gauge on it and the pressure would come down like stock but truck was still pulling Dr P on or off other mods will cause the problem too

I've made runs with and without the predator box on and there is no doubt it causes random surging because my Bullydog has never had that effect by itself.

mp-8. It's not as aggressive, but it's completely adjustable.

I just installed the Quad X2 with the pressure only software downloaded to it today. I'm very impressed.

With my juice/ramifier stack I gained about 1.5 mpg over the juice alone. I was pleased as punch

Ive tried both the MP8 and X2 and so far I dont know which I like best. They both do a great job. Im running the X2 now just because it has a RP gauge!

I'd rather give up 16hp to have control of the amount of pressure being added. JMO though.
