Thumbs up Zeuz Engine Management - Cool But Who?!

Ok...I saw this in a magazine and it got me all fired up.

http://www.destroked.com/zeus/index.shtml

It's about time!

But what shop would have the skill to set one of these babies up? I'm not talking install, because it looks to be plug 'n play.

But what shop can strap your Dodge to a dyno and tweek everything so it's squeezing every last ounce of horsepower out of your setup, keeping an eye on EGT and...do they even have diesel particulate monitors??? Is there such a thing???

That looks like a good way to get rid of the third injection event on the '04.5 and later trucks.

If it would run the tranny too, I would be installing an Aisin 6 speed today.

...but still the question remains:

What shop could actually do that level of tuning and do it properly?

Yeah...crazy. I think AEM for gas engines runs about $2k. Not sure what they're thinking with $3800.

I haven't checked in awhile, but someone on this site was tearing into an ECM. I think he was trying to figure out how to modify it like a programmer. Not sure though. I'll try to find the posts.

Like lmills says, better price that other stand alone systems.

As far as programming, you'd be suprised how easy programming this kind of stuff is. I have an aftermarket ECM on my Miata, it was/is really easy to program. Most come with a basic disk that is vehicle specific to get it up and running, fine tuning is easy from there. You can data log your changes and upload them to your computer, my system on my Miata allows me to have my laptop plugged in while I am tuning/driving. Lots of fun.
