The Edge Juice Plug-In Module fits 2001-2004 Duramax Diesels and
is a completely weatherproof module that easily installs
underneath the hood. With the addition of the Attitude monitor you
can add five levels of adjustable power ranging - from 60 to 150
horsepower* - and increase torque up to 350 foot pounds*. The
Juice greatly improves responsiveness and driveability, while at
the same time increasing fuel economy.
The Juice communicates along the engine’s CAN-BUS
data stream, from which it receives vital engine, transmission,
and fuel system information. This enables the Juice to provide
smooth and precise power curves that are truly custom, rather than
just an offset from stock.
The Juice also monitors the transmission slippage
when the torque converter clutch is engaged. The power level is
decreased if any slippage is detected. This prevents damage from
being caused to the transmission, and also prevents the power
train from erroneously generating fault codes and entering “limp
mode”.
The Juice also limits the amount of power increase
during transmission shifts when the torque converter clutch is
engaged and also when the torque converter clutch is being
engaged. This allows the torque converter clutch to engage without
slippage causing “limp mode”.
When the torque converter clutch is engaged, fifth
gear on the Allison 1000 transmission will hold about 680 foot
pounds of torque before slipping. Gears 2-4 with the torque
converter clutch engaged have never slipped in Edge’s testing. (We
have tested over 900 foot pounds of torque with no slippage).
Without the sophisticated transmission monitoring that the Juice
performs, the total power increase would need to be limited to the
weakest conditions to prevent “limp mode”.
Unlike other products on the market, The Juice
allows for moving power to be put to the ground under all
conditions without transmission slippage or “limp mode”. When the
torque converter clutch is engaged in fourth gear and under a
heavy load, the Hot Juice should provide about 30-32 psi of boost,
if the waste gate has been disabled on the turbo. Fifth gear will
provide about 25-26 psi of boost when the torque converter clutch
is engaged.
