View Full Version : TST or JUICE?
Ok, which one would you choose? The TST has more capacity, a built in gauge as well as a "in cab" controller. The Juice has better TQ and HP curves with less slip. Neither has a speed limiter bumper. Yes, the Diablo would be the ticket for increased tire size, monitoring and limiters. What really makes the difference between the two? As I have heard, the Allison takes about 200 shifts to "level out" or adjust to different programs. Does the trans "remember" a style of power? If it has a memory of old patterns that would seems to benefit the JUICE. :confused: I really like creative adjusting via~ TST but I do like the simplicity of the JUICE. I just cannot make up my mind. I wish that John sold TST products. :rolleyes:

Burner,
Are you sure Juice has "better" HP and Tq curves. Remember the Hp and Tq curves are adjustable on the TST. I'm still confused how you can put more power through the tranny with less slip. I believe the tranny will slip at the same power regardless of how it get's there.
FWIW I'm driving around at a setting of 9+9 now and the cruise is stable, there is apparently no or little defueling between shifts and I haven't limped the tranny yet. The Ally is extremely adaptive apparently if you give it time.
the adaptive time could be the key.....dave
Burner,
Truth be told, I haven't tried mine yet. I've considered it, but the TST dealer program is kinda goofy. I also like to know WHAT I am running. The Predator has custom tune program loading capabilities. The Juice I can hook to the "Juicer" and see what is on it.
Rest assured, I do intend to hit the dyno and see how it works, but need to send my box in as the programming is already old, and not representative of what is being released. Dunno if I'll get it shipped out and back in time to dyno before the Rendezvous or not...

Burner,
Most of a time if I hear a truck going into limp, it's when they first install a box and run it all the way up. I'm guilty of this too! I think a64Pilot and SDaver a correct in saying that the Allison is a learning type tranny. Have a great day, Greg

The Allison transmission computer continuously monitors driving style (accelerator inputs and loads), then adapts line pressures and shift points to suit. Therefore a sudden change in power output over and above the original maximum, will force the transmission computer to readapt, in the worst case, it may not be able to do so quickly enough to save your tranny from damage and in the best case it would just put the tranny in limp mode.
That's why a gradual build up of power over a 100 or more miles is the best policy for the more aggressive power upgrades.

Well, we might find out tonight. One banana member here is coming over to sell his Hot Juice to a non-member buddy of mine. With him he's bringing the newest, hottest, next day aired, version of TST's competition box and we're gonna hook it up to his 03 D/A. He's been pounding his truck with different boxes since it was brand new and his tranny is either a good one or they can learn, because he hasn't limped or slipped yet. So we'll see how it does with the TST and how the TST compares with the Hot Juice he'll be unplugging when he gets here. Another well known, heavy footed, member might show up and grace us with his presence and never ending wealth of knowledge. This is kind of last minute but, hopefully like Field of Dreams: if we build it he will come. ;)
sounds like he is calling you out mac..... :D dave

Which box smokes ........ less?
Burner-----> :rolleyes: :D
If you had a TST box set on 9 & 9 and HOT JUICE on level 4, which box would hit 1400 first? tongue.gif
- John, will the new "Juicer" have a temp limmiter like the TST controler? What kind of price will we have on a "full" set-up?

sdaver, the great and powerful man behind the curtain, Mackin, graced us with his presence. Based on what he's working on with his truck he's definitely answering to the "I need more" demons in his head. As far as the Hot Juice, TST comparo it's kind of hard to come up with a result as an apples to apples comparo wasn't made. Banana (I'll let him decide if he wants to be public) pulled in with the Hot Juice on level 4 and stacked with another unit. He then unhooked everything and tried the TST on it's own. Basically compared to the Juice stacked he thought the TST was softer on the bottom end but pulled harder up high. The TST did make big, humorous amounts of smoke though. Then he stacked the TST with his stacker box and felt it hit harder down low but not as hard down low as with the Hot Juice. My other buddy who bought Banana's Hot Juice plugged it in to his 03 and he and Mackin went for a shake down. They were gone for a while and came back with an SES showing after the Hot Juice sent his truck into limp. Several attempts were made to clear the SES with the Predator but, it wouldn't go away. Eventually on his drive home the SES light did shut off. My buddy did say that before the Juice limped his truck that although it ran strong it didn't feel as strong as his truck had felt with my TST hooked to it but, in fairness he didn't get much drive time with the Juice on level 4 before it limped. We went for some rides, burned some rubber and then somehow we ended up at a bar.

I hate to make excuses but, when I did take Mac for a little burst what felt strong to him felt soft to me compared to how my truck was supposed to feel. We were having some issues with the in cab controller and I had to keep resetting it during our jaunt but, I assumed the truck felt low on power because my clutch was starting to show signs of slipping. The controller was acting up again today and would default to 0 modes everytime I shut the truck off. Then all of a sudden it actually accepted (instead of just displaying them) and stored the high settings and ran and smoked the way it was supposed to. Turns out my clutch was fine. I can only assume the glitch is within the in cab controller. So unless Greg aka, TSTTech chimes in here, his phone's gonna be ringing Monday morning. In other news, now that I have local access to a Hot Juice I'm gonna have my buddy set it to level 4 in his Ally truck and then we'll pull it out and plug it in to my 6 speeder. Then I can compare it to the TST myself in my truck and see which one actually makes more power without interference from the Ally. It will be interesting to see how the Hot OJ runs unleashed from the Allison. Without the TCM to deal with the OJ might be able to let it all hang out in a 6 speed truck. Anyhow, Mac, I'm sorry you didn't get the full giggle ride. Maybe next time. ;) Kind D, yes we're talking about the same knucklehead. It's too bad all the members are so spread out across this great country because if we could get some more quality meatheads together more often we could really have some fun. Lucky for me we've got 4 or 5 good meathead members (and maybe even our leader meathead) right here in CT. Anyhow my wife thought 4 Diesel nerds and their trucks in the driveway was plenty. :D

Just a brief follow up on my TST issue. Talked to Greg at TST this morning. Told him what it was doing and what levels it would reset to. He said those are the factory default settings so something somewhere is out of wack. Hasn't happened before as far as he knows but, I do have one of the original units. He said no problem and mailed me a new box, controller, and harness today. When they get mine they'll try to figure it out.
GMCTRUCK, How do you launch? I haven't decided if 1st or 2nd gear launch is quicker. I like first because you don't slip or dump the clutch but the engine doesn't build rpm that quick. The other problem is shifting. I'm getting pretty good at the 1-2 speed shift but you can miss it easily. Second may be better in the end. I'm used to my old big block 4 spd. First gear hard with no tire spin and you couldn't miss second if you tried.
GMCTRUCK
06-02-2003, 15:47
By launch I assume you mean as if I were gonna time it or race somebody. 1st is just too low for the diesels rpm range. You'd be through 1st and looking for 2nd so fast that you'd be slower just from the time you lose making that extra shift. Even second feels too low to me for a launch gear, but let's remember this is a truck ZF 6 speed not the ZF box used in the Corvette. ;) I only use 1st to get going on a hill, get a load going, or if I'm gonna be moving the truck 50ft or less of a distance. And yes the 1st to 2nd shift can be tricky.
Ahh yes, smokin' tires and drinkin' cold ones, 2 of my favorite things!!
If you banannas, meatheads, cupcakes, or whatever need a Vericom(better
than a G-tech) and /or a tech2 for your next romping, gimme a shout....

Seat of the pants is one thing, but I haven't seen anything challenge my stacking combo on the dyno. The base box is the Juice, but you never know, I should have my TST set to Comp levels this week.
Ratdoc,
If you head that way with the Dmax and wanna blow away your Allison, I can have you spraying diesel soot graffiti on those guys! :D Seriously though, I doubt I'd ever line them up unless on a track as I'd really hate to trade paint... :eek:

Burner, the newest TST comp box that Toddster has puts out big, bombed Cummins type smoke. The most I've ever seen out of a Dmax. That doesn't necessarily mean faster though. As far as racing goes it's illegal and I won't take part in any such thing on the street. ;) Besides if anyone does pull away from me I try to nudge their rear quarter and spin them out before they get too far ahead. I guess that would have to make me a sore loser. smile.gif

Burner-----> :D
GM Converters . . .
LCT 1000 Allison
The Allison transmission has long been synonymous with heavy equipment transmissions. Designed for workhorse pickups, the 1000 series offers all the features that have made Allison legendary.
With five forward speeds, a 3:10:1 first gear, a 0.71:1 overdrive fifth gear, advanced electronic controls, the 1000 promises to be a huge step forward in automatic transmissions for the diesel engine. Having said this, it became immediately apparent that with the increase in over-stock power levels there were some design deficiencies to be addressed.
One of the excellent features of the 1000 is the fail safe or self protection mode. Upon sensing a slip or over-torque condition the control module will place the transmission in neutral or limp mode to prevent damage to the friction elements. After extensive research, we have identified the areas that need correction, and we have developed the tech and parts to raise the 1000's torque capacity.
Due to the cost of labor and down-time, we do not recommend partial repairs. The fact that the transmission will be removed to accomplish the modifications we feel it is prudent to address all of the issues with this transmission. The additional expense will be a smart investment for durability and performance.
This installation you can then take your Duramax to whatever power level you want!

Thanks Greg, will be watching for it?
One qusetion:
If a guy doesn't use the pyro probe, do we need to short the pins, or will it be best left open?
Kennedy, Did you already try the latest version regular TST? I thought you had an old version and it seems like the one in the mail is the Competition version. Just wondering.
In talking to Greg, it was determined that we could emulate the std version power level by selecting #2 so I figured why not kill 2 birds...

If you don't use the thermocouple leads I'd say it's a good ideal to put the two together. The box will work fine with them unhooked, but that will eliminate any problems that could occur with static. Thanks, Have a great day!

Additional pulls are just 10 bucks a piece. They did say to limit this to 20 vehicles. We can have as many people and trucks as we want however. Email Stnls18 8@aol.com to confirm your spot.
I look forward to meeting everyone on Sunday the 22nd. Door's open @ 8AM. :cool:

Who you kidding? That thing couldn't spin it's way through a wet paper bag. tongue.gif Seriously though, I will be accepting donations towards a clutch. It's holding up on the street but, the dyno is a different story.

Not a big breakfast eater myself and I don't want a full tummy when/if my clutch lets go on the dyno. May grab a Dunkin coffee and an egg MACKINmuffin on the way. Certainly not gonna go east to go north, but thanks for the offer. Should be fun anyhow. The more I read the more it looks like I'll be the only one there not stacking. Even Suzy has a new custom tune box in his truck since last time we got together. With the rain predicted it doesn't look like anybody's gonna be able to claim quickest truck either. :confused:
The rain will suck .... :( Dirty Black Duramax ..... :(
No traction ...... :( No smoker's,well good one's ..... :(
