why does this thing surge so bad, and why does it only work on tune 1? and why doesnt it have any more power than stock on any level but the max "ie 10 lvls only feel power increase on lvl 9, 0-8 do nothing.

its a addrenaline with pulse

 

anybody?, oh and the search function doesn't yield any satisfying results on this one

 

Did you buy it new or used? Does it have the latest flash? If so, you must have something wired wrong, unless you have more bombs than what's in your sig. Most surging issues only occur on trucks with high HP these days.

 

Make sure you have a good connection for the wire tap and that you have the right wire tapped. Just a place to start. If you are not getting anything past level one you have some other issue.

 

its the top wire on the top set of wires aint it?, i got it to where it will adjust levels now, but it still surges like crap. I tried updating the pulse and the adr, and niether will do it, i emailed quad, maybe i will here something back after xmas

 

ok i figured it out, sorta. The custom tune option doesnt work, the factory tune in the adr box works, and you can change it from 4 lvls up so you can kinda adjust it better. But i still have no idea why the custom tune, water temp, and the downloadable updates wont work

 

If there is no custom tuning available, you have older software. You need to update the Pulse and Adrenaline both seperately to the new files. Make sure you get the correct files for 98-02.

 

it wont update, shows a big error msg when i try to update the adr.
the software wont even recognize the pulse

 

This link is for the Pulse only.....you must have the microsoft .net framework( found here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en ) installed prior to updating. I always disconnect the pulse from the Adrenaline before updating. Start the update and connect the Pulse when it tells you to.

These links are for the Adrenaline updates. I also unplug the Adrenaline module from the truck when updating. If you havent already, read the Quad .pdf instructions before updating.

ive been to all that, i have the updates downloaded, it gets to the point of clearing the tune that came on the adr from the factory then throws a error msg and says "index was outside the bounds of array"

 

I'd call Quad customer service.....they are very good.

 

I have that same problem with all my computers running an AMD chip. Thankfully I have one system with an Intel chip, and everything works just fine. Wonder if that might be part of the issue?

 

I have read about a dozen or so threads about Quad's problems with their products... some have been horror stories, and some have not been too terribly ugly. I am glad that I didn't buy one of their modules because of these stories... I'd rather keep things simple with the electronics: plug n play... no tapping pump wires for me.

 

I think that you may have hit on something. When I first bought my adrenaline it took up to 4 computers before one would install the update file.

 

intel atom, amd socket 939, and both of my buddies computers. Im gonna wait til monday and call them, if they cant make it right im gonna go with a smarty
