Select power on the fly
I bought my Pulsar about a month ago and the power gain is very noticeable on all 8 power levels. If you have it on 8 you better hang on because the throttle response is immediate and even with the traction control on it will break the tires loose and you have to go light on the pedal or it will jerk you around . For around town driving I prefer level 5 or 6 because i still get good power gain but it is much smoother going from a full stop and going through the gears. On the open road i selected power level 3 and got 22 miles to the gallon going from Phoenix to Los Angeles. The unit is very easy to install, 10 minutes max. The only gripe i have is that it doesn't allow you to remove the speed governor of 110 miles per hour like a hand held unit allows you to. So you're going to get to 110 mph in neck breaking speed and that's it. Wish it had a speed governor disable. Other than that it works flawlessly.

Impressed
I installed my Pulsar, idled out of my garage... put it on setting 5 and gave my normal amount of gas... the tires broke loose and spun! The change in pedal response was incredible. My Hemi has been transformed from a mediocre pickup truck to a responsive stallion that's fun to drive!! I haven't noticed an increase in fuel efficiency because I've been enjoying the way my truck behaves when I give it the gas... maybe after I've had my fill of this setting i'll put it on "economy" and see what I get in the line of fuel savings, for now... I prefer the response than the economy.

Very good Support and great product
I bought one a month ago. My Rebel 2018 had problems with, I called the support and even if I am in QC,CANADA, immediately, they sent me another. two days later still have the same problems with the new one. I began to be discouraged. I call them back and they send me a third that I received the next day! Now it works very well! Congratulations for the support and the quality of the after sales service. It is an excellent new product that needs to be perfected and they do it. That's great !

Had to return product.
Bought for my 2016 RAM 1500 and it worked fine for the first few hours but then truck starting surging and throwing some codes. Had to remove and clear codes. Was informed that they have been experiencing this issue with some RAMS. Would have been a great product if worked as advertised. Had to return so now I'm out $25 for shipping.

Great features, but triggered my check engine ligh
I have had the Pulsar on my 2017 Ram 1500 for about a month. After a couple of weeks and maybe ~400 miles, the check engine light came on with a message stating: "service the electronic throttle control system."
I subsequently unhooked the battery and left it unhooked for about 30 minutes. When I reattached the battery, the service message was cleared, however, the check engine light stayed on for about 10 or so miles, then the light turned off. It's been fine for about a week without any issues. I hope this isn't something that continues to happen since this product was not exactly cheap.
Otherwise, the product does exactly what I wanted. With my custom exhaust, I hated MDS, and this product seems to keep MDS from kicking on just fine.

I have a 2017 Ram Longhorn and have nothing but praise for the Pulsar interactive performance from idle to WOT The gains are especially amazing when I have found even better MPG even on the Performance level.

Disappointed
First the truck: 2016 Ram 1500 w/ 4” lift and 35” tires, K&N cold air intake and MBRP cat back exhaust. This has very easy installation and I’ve had no connection or control problems. I have not dyno’d the truck so I don’t have numbers to back up my statements only my perception. After several weeks of testing, trying different octane gas and taking a 2500 mile cross country trip I’ve come to the belief that the power this product produces is illusion. I believe all this does is change the gas pedal sensitivity. I have seen no improvement in MPG in economy mode either on the highway or in town but it certainly makes the fuel pedal less responsive. Tow mode is fun, very snappy pedal response but I wouldn’t say that it seems like there is actually any more power, it just reacts faster to pressing the pedal. “Performance mode” is something else. As far as I can tell it’s completly unusable unless you are drag racing or trying to rear end someone. The pedal response is immediate 5% press of the pedal is equal to 95% in stock, but it’s uncontrollable and unusable in any normal driving situation other than a completely open dry road. All in all, based on my experience, there is no indication of this being at all more efficient than the stock tuning. I believe the are much less expensive ways to get faster response from the gas pedal. It is not worth the cost in my opinion and I regret the purchase.

I just purchased a pulsar for my 2017 Ram 5.7 6” lift running 35’s. What an amazing product. Only had it for couple days now. Was wondering if I can run in factory tow/haul mode along with the pulsar in tow mode? Will this damage anything?
Asked by: Craigg
Yes, you can still run the factory tow/haul mode. the tow/haul button on your truck will help with the shifting and the preloaded tunes will interact flawlessly with the different modes.

I installed this on a 2017 Ram limited and want to know if it’s necessary to adjust gear ratio! I love it so far but would like just a little more instant throttle torque on the performance setting and want to know if changing gear ratio would help
Asked by: Scoobz
You should adjust gear ratio if you truly and physically swap out the gears. Otherwise, keep it as is. Power level 8 will give you the maximum performance and throttle response available.
Answered by: Moises
Date published: 2019-12-04
Other than throttle response, what is this changing? Shift points, trans psi, timing, etc.?
Asked by: Bonzaibloomfield
The Pulsar will adjust, timing, accelerator pedal response, and MDS. The pulsar is adjustable on the fly, it improves the economy, towing capabilities, performance and it comes with 8 performance levels.

So I purchased the Pulsar-Thoroughly impressed. I see documentation that says for "Performance" we need to run premium... is this for added horsepower, or would some type of damage occur if premium is not used? I love the "tow" and "tow MDS off" modes.
Asked by: Jochanan
On level 1-6 on the pulsar, it is recommended to run 87 octane or higher. On level 7-8 it is best to run 91 or higher octane.

Will the unit memorize the setting you select for future driving or is there a default setting? Meaning, when you set it to a level (IE- level 7) will it remain on level 7 the next time you start the truck?

what ever setting you turn your vehicle off with, will still be active when you start your vehicle.

Do you need to change the OEM thermostat, to a 180 degree thermostat with this? I didn't see in the product description if you need to or not. Thanks
Asked by: lurob
Changing the the thermostat is a good complimentary upgrade, and the tool can adjust the fan temperatures to correspond to the new one.
However, the preloaded tunes are calibrated to work with the stock thermostat, so it is not required.
