Installed mine today. I ran into one thing where option 6 (60 mph) was not the auto start disable but was throttle response adjustment. I can tell you when you set it to the highest setting acceleration is extremely abrupt. I'm waiting for my usb to odbii cable then I'll update it to see if the options change. So far very happy with this!!!


Let us know if there is an update. I was told there wasn’t as they were new and “shouldn’t need one”.

My replacement unit came in and its installed.  So far it works perfectly.  Throttle sensitivity adjustments DO work on the fly and make a dramatic difference in pedal feel.  As long as everything kee

Will do. If there isn't I wonder why option 6 was acceleration and not stop/start. Has anyone else seen this?

Anyone with the Pulsar LT using this with a CAI? Watching the Pulsar installation video the unit is attached to the top of the air cleaner box with velcro strips. Wondering where you are attaching the Pulsar unit if you are running a CAI? I have the Roto-fab intake and didn't like the idea of attaching the Puisar to the clear lid.

You can mount it wherever you want.

Question for those who have  the Pulsar. Once you have everything set where you want it does it have to be reset if you remove it and then reinstall it? Example being you are bringing vehicle to dealership for oil change and do not want it recorded that Pulsar is in vehicle. You take it out, have service performed, then reinstall it.

I'm researching this myself. My initial thought is that it would reset itself but I'm not sure.

I have the Pulsar LT on my 6.2 AT4. I imagine you would have to adjust it to your preferences once its re-installed. But it probably took me all of 10 minutes to figure out how to adjust what I wanted and actually change it. It's not time consuming at all.

I disconnected mine when I was having the lane change alert issue. It was only disconnected a couple minutes, but it held it's settings.

Are you saying the device held it's settings/memory when unplugged and then plugged back in, or are you saying the truck held the settings when the device was unplugged?

The device held its settings.  The truck never actually "changes" any programming.  The Pulsar intercepts the signal and modifies it.  Its a piggyback.

I had a few days of no problems then...

I was driving from Minneapolis to Kansas City today. My truck started throwing up tons of error codes and wouldn't restart after turning it off. It wouldn't even crank. 

I unplugged the Pulsar and took it out of the system, everything fired up.

I am going to ship it back, not sure it is fully developed yet.

Wow! Thats not good. I think we got ours about the same time. I installed mine on Black Friday. So far so good, although I havent driving it more than a couple hundred miles yet. Did they give you any problems with getting a refund?

      Clunk when putting truck into drive and reverse.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.
