I ran your same setup for awhile except an auto trans. Ran real good! I would definitely get good gauges. EGT, fuel pressure, and boost. You don’t need the head unit on every time you drive the truck. I only connect mine when I’m playing with the tune or want to check some numbers out. Other than that start and go. I wouldn’t worry about the wiretap feature until you get your base tune dialed in. Here’s something basic you can start with. On level 3. load timing offset 2 Low timing reduction 5 timing scaling 50% Light throttle timing 2 light throttle load 30% Timing scale 15,19,23,27, 29 Mike starts his on 13 with a manual. Mine does better at 15. Your canbus could start between 95-98% Which ever has the least amount of smoke with a good take off. From there just add fuel so you have a nice steady pull using the whole throttle pedal. I believe canbus fueling maxes out at 4095 which you can check on the Quad. From what I’ve read most hit that number around 125% of fueling but you can select up to 150%

First off let me say. I just had my transmission fluid change this summer. On my trip to Lewiston ID I had the Quadzilla on Level 2. I made it to the Casino outside of town and stop for a minute to grab a few things. Pulled back out on the highway rowed up through gear and it started clicking. WHAT?! Any gear had a very loud clicking noise even neutral as long as it rolling. I figure out pretty quick its was the input gear from the input shaft. Towed it home and pull the transmission. Yup you can twist the input and feel the gear is got broken teeth. NOTE: Remember the Quadzilla was on level 2 (stock fuel), fluid was just changed this summer and fresh and full. When I drained the fluid is was still clean but full of fine glitter. Now I opted for a different trans builder. I got a connection with a builder up near @Dynamic up there in Northeast Washington. The gents name is Jason Hammer. He dove in and looked over my transmission basically I wore the hard facing off the those gears with over 435k miles. Totally normal wear for those gear and distance since those gears never been changed. Now the countershaft is one unit and will be replaced as a full unit. I'll post up the carnage as soon as I go back up north 5 hours away to get my transmission. .

The other hard part is some of that stuff is from 2009 and things have changed somewhat in the performance arena since then.

In Johnny Carson’s voice”I did not know that.”

Ok gotcha. It would be good to have a member that knows these manuals inside out. He would be a welcomed addition. Hope he recovers well from covid. Best wishes to him.

I don't even like the 6 speed in Thor. Row 4 gears just to get to 25 MPH. Just 2 gears to get to 25 MPH in The Beast. Now to give some more to the site then gent (Jason Hammer) doing my rebuild is going to teach work to rebuild Nv4500 and 5600 the the g56 as well. Then he's will to register up and help others with manuals. Funny part really close to @Dynamic. East side of Washington as well.

Swap in an 18spd, that way you have more gears to lose before you can't drive it anymore.

Mate of mine drops round yesterday, he has a 03 1500 hemi, I scanned this about a year ago for a misfire, cylinders 5 and 7 low secondary spark IIRC so ordered coils from R/A for him so he fits the coils and the misfire is still there, he buys a cheapo code reader as he lost my number and the code had changed can't remember what to but it was plugs/leads/coils or ECM, sort of the same fault but different code So he changes the plugs/leads already done the coils, no change so he buys a ECM from the USA which matched all numbers on his original, fitted that and all good except ABS light flashing hence the visit to me yesterday, so this morning I go plug the S/O Modis in as his cheapo reader doesn't do ABS or anything else other than engine. Codes 82, 83 and 84. 82 and 83 are tone ring mismatch so checked live data parked and everything looked ok, did a code clear and 82 and 83 wouldn't clear (84 is VIN mismatch) Turns out tyre size was wrong from his original ECM to his replacement, replacement had 235/80/17 IIRC and his tyres were 275/60/20, put in the new tyre size and ABS light off, took it for a run and it stayed off, I have advised him to send his original ECM to somewhere like ACS and get it checked out and repaired and keep the replacement as a good known spare My good deed for the day done and my mate is well happy
