As the title states, I (ok Peter) got the T500 installed on my e99 at the Nor Cal GTG last weekend. Also installed were new hoses, new IPR, and new ICP sensor.
First impression = Wow way better throttle response. Part of that probably has to do with my old IPR falling apart a few years ago. Funny how it still ran ok.
Second impression = Wow way better mid range to top end power! It actaully pulls hard above 2500, better than it ever has.
Third impression = TBD. I'll update MPG's after I go through this tank. The truck has actually been improving it's mileage up till now despite having nearly 300k miles.
e99 guys this is really a mod that you can feel the results instantly. Clay @ RiffRaff carries the T500.
*Public Service Announcement* If you buy or have bought a T500 try to make an effort to get your core back to Terminator Engineering. Joey is doing his best to satisfy demand, but it's tough when he doesn't have enough cores!

Just shattered my single tank record by getting 17.6 MPG's !! Previous best was 16.9 done about ten years ago.
This was mostly driving at 60-65 and sometimes up around 70. A few miles here or there around town but mostly freeway.
If you have an Early 99, you need a T500. Call Clay at RiffRaff.

Dont know a whole lot about the difference between e99 and 99-03 HPOP......would you possibly see gains like this in the later model trucks??
Just curious here, my AE is on its way so I will be able to see what my ICP is an how my HPOP is preforming when it gets here. Just wondering if the T500 is a good upgrade on the later model trucks even if the HPOP is still in good working order?

I have got to have some bigger problems. I did not really notice any difference after installing mine. I my mileage just keeps getting worse and worse. I am real close to the 300k mark though so what can I really expect I guess.

I had a similar story with my live tuning. Granted, I'm running singles and a modded 17 pump. Jody had me at 3200 psi in my 140 tune with 45% DC with maxed out pulse width. Came back from tuning and passed that on to Joey. Joey replied with, "Lets throw a T500 in there. I bet I can get that DC down to 40%" LOL!

I bet he can get you lower... IIR when Jody was seeing 3200, he commented that DC was at 32%

Just pull your pump and send it, I purchased my T500 direct from terminator engineering. They got my pump on thursday and it was back in the mail by friday and i had the pump back in my hands on the following monday. The process is much faster if you just send your own pump in for rebuilding. Total with shipping $460
