I did air box, but I’m not crazy about it.  Might move it to that opening and see how it does.  I zip tied a hanger to sort of hold that end up to keep it from rubbing.  Will probably go back in and rework it all but it’s ok for now.  
 

(hope it’s ok I answered...lol)

I answered on your other post, but that’s exactly where I mounted mine. Looks way better to me than being mounted to the air box, though the extra harness doesn’t really have a nice place to sit.

The Pulsar seems to be my only option to disable DFM, really wish they were able to come out with the regular Range device for $200. I would buy one yesterday.

Yup that’s exactly what I want too

Quick question.......I bought the Pulsar LT so I could disable the DFM and Auto Start/Stop. I noticed shortly after the install and driving around that when coming to stop, if I have to apply a little harder pressure to the brakes (not much. Mainly what would be considered by most just a normal stop), right before it comes to a complete stop it feels like there is a bump or slight jump. Happened every time for a couple of days so I removed the Pulsar, and now it's gone. Anyone else experience that or know what could have caused it?

Weird, I get exactly what you are describing with the auto start/stop function working. When I turn it off I still get a slight bump, I just assumed it was the big AT tires shifting slightly or something. The bump is noticeably more forceful when the auto stop/start is activated though.

@DougCBJIt has not done it since I took the Pulsar out. I just put the Pulsar back in, turned the DFM and auto start/stop back off and took it for a spin to test it out. Same thing happened again. So not sure what causes it but it's not doing it when the Pulsar is not installed.

I may be experiencing what you’re describing.  I’m not that mechanically inclined nor have I ever driven a 6.2L, but it does feel a little rough/awkward when I stop.

 

I may disconnect the pulsar later and see if that solves the problem.

Well that settles it… I won’t be getting the Pulsar to shut off DFM… there’s still no other options out there for 6.2/10spd trucks?

The other option is to tune it. I like the idea of the Pulsar LT but too many gremlins that pop up with it. If GM doesn’t come out with a supercharged truck this coming year. I’m keeping my 2019 and just going to tune it and then might go “charged” route later on. I know Diablo has a tune now for $599. Not bad when the Pulsar LT is $4?? Something.

I think I’m experiencing the same jump coming to a stop. Did you ever solve this?

What model and what year is your truck/

      2026 DENALI 6.2L

      By pyoung62 · Posted

      I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.

      Can you add a 360° Cameras hard button to a 2021 Sierra?

      By ShowMeShooter1332 · Posted

      I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
