Ok.....ever since I installed the Fluidampr a month or so ago, the truck seems way down on power

At the same time I threw on a new belt tensioner and Gatorback belt

Yes, it runs so much smoother and I actually gained some MPGs, but the power just seems down

What gives?
 
Maybe it's in your head. Like putting a muffler on to quiet down a loud exhaust and then feeling like the power is down because it doesn't vibrate and rattle the truck interior. There is absolutely zero reasons a fluidampner would rob hp.
 
I think it feels down on power because the damper is much heavier than stock and will slow down how fast the engine revs a little. I lost no real power on the dynamic but it felt a bit slower.
