Yes, you can run them both.

You might gain another 25-30hp as a result.

I dont know anything about Diablo Power Puck but, i know ez is a fuel and timing. You really dont want to stack a timing and timing chip, program, modual on top of eachother.

Hope it helps

Agreeeeee, as it will add too much timing. I tried it only once.....superchip+ quad xzt+ and the truck shut down. More of something does not always improve things.

Maybe he should have asked if it was a good idea to run both, not just whether or not you CAN

I also would discourage running two timing advance mods. At light/no loads, this isn't a problem (and will have great mpg). But once the boost comes up, you will see more smoke, less power, and generally just poor performance in the real world. You might see more power on the dyno, but you might not. It depends a lot on your particular combo and the conditions and such.

Think of the vacuum advance function on a gasser distributor and you get the idea.

Why are you changing the Diablo Puck? you did not like it? how much more power did you get with diablo puck?

Thanks
