I dont know if i am right for sure but i installed a qzilla chip and i like the chip but ever since i installed it it sure seems like my truck makes weird noises... it always sounds like it is struggling but when i give it the gas it has plenty of power it just sounds like crap... i can turn my chip off and it sounds the same so i dont know if my mind is just playing tricks on my... i dont have any gauges and i dont know if my fuel rails are getting hot making noise or what but i am worried....please help...

 

Only weird noises I had was when I got kittens caught in the serpentine belt....LOL.

take it out completely and listen to it. I haven't heard any differences since i installed my in my truck.

 

the only thing I can think off off the top of my head is the module is changeing the aspects of the injector timeing/duration, and the pressure comeing off the CP3. when this happens the engine will sound a bit different.

with my TST at idle my truck sounds completely stock, but just off idle it sounds like a different animal, and every step up I go she sounds a little different, when I get above 7 on the HP she just starts blowin beautiful clouds of black death.

 

seems i notice the noises more when pulling a trailer which i do 95% of the time.... and if i turn the chip of it makes the same noises as when the chip is on but i swear it didnt do it before i got the chip.. but i was wondering will your truck start to make more noise as it gets broke in? i currently have 8000 miles on the truck...

 

I have noticed with 34K on the ticker she does make a bit more noise than when I bought her, but that could also be from the BHAF, and dead kitty.

 

sometimes it almost sound like it is struggling and i get all worried so i push on the pedal to see if it has anypower and it takes off without any hesitation.. man i wish i new if this was in my head...

 

hey Drew do you have a cai because i was wondering if with the added power of the new chip i have was making my stock air intake starve for air or something..

 

I realy wouldnt call it a CAI, I look at it as being a better intake

anyway, if you were starving the engine for air you would see excessive smoke and the air restriction gage, which I think is a complete joke, would be in the red all the time. to tell you the truith I think it may be in your head[sm=alcoholic.gif] if there was something wrong you would know it quick.
