I felt a bit more power yes, but with the Flow 40, it seems to be gone.

The weird thing with mine is that when I put on my powerwire I noticed a difference in power, but when I took it off to goto the dealer the other day it felt stronger without it. I've also noticed that my powerwire has what looks like a lump in the middle of the cord that it didn't have when I bought it don't know if that would have anything to do with it. Maybe it just feels different so I think it feels more powerful and it really isn't I dont know

I am in the same situation. My truck feels sluggish with the Flowmaster. I felt more power without it. Now its just loud and heavy.

I checked it out on the way home from work. When I left I had the powerwire off and the truck felt pretty responsive. I was driving a harder than normal and to flooreditwhilegoing 30 in 3rd gear to see the response. I then pulled over and put the powerwire back in and drove the rest of the way home, also trying to floor it while going 30 in 3rd gear. The truck seemed to make more noise with the wire on but it was like it would make noise and not move. Overall it felt like it had less power and response with the wire in which is odd because I know that the first day I put the wire it it felt more responsive and powerful than stock. My new computer is going in today while I'm at work and I'll test it out again with the new comp.

Also, I dont know, but it was mentioned in another post that the PCMs need time to relearn things, when stuff is changed. I dont know if we are giving it time to do so.

Ya I thought of that. I've noticed when you first put the powerwire in the truck stalls easier in first gear when taking off but after a bit it stops.

I picked my truck up today after having the comp installed and drove about a mile before putting in the powerwire. During that first mile it had no power and felt really weird since the comp hadn't been driven with at all. It was bogging down badly but it was getting better the farther I went. I pulled over put the powerwire in and let it idle for awhile to get used to it and now the truck feels good with the wire again. It feels much stronger like it did when I first go the powerwireso I think the main problem was the old comp not working well with the powerwire once something went wrong with it.
