  1. Try this for me. Click the apply tune button then just let it sit for ~1 minute without hitting anything. Does it freeze then?
  2. The issue is reproducable? How does it drive? Does it feel like the tune fully applies?
  3. you're using my tune? Did you add the needed tuning variables for 4k? What vehicle profile did you select on the tablet?\ Where you interfacing with the tablet, ie changing power levels, when it froze?
  4. Just adjust the to stop screw out so the quadzilla reads %2 to at idle. That should make it so the quad is always altering fueling and should bring fueling way down right offidle.
  5. well I found what some might call a boost leak haha. torn intercooler boot and a blown out intake gasket. I got the intake gasket fixed and it is already better offidle lol. The intercooler boot is really bad so I think I will be able to throw a ton more fuel at the truck. I kinda knew something was up, but I am lazy
  6. depends on the test method. I know our laws are %35 for 5 seconds you might just adjust the idle stop to make it sit at %2 throttle or something. That will make the quadilla always be on I suppose. I also created a arduino tool to "buffer" the tps input lol. It worked pretty well, but effectively it would slowly increase throttle on snap throttle changes.
  7. I will fight them tooth and nail if I fail below %35 lol. The DMV told me %35 lol. I really don't trust them already since they are the only emissions station in town. I know for sure it said %20 limit on the slip I got last year.
  8. humm ok. that matches everything I have read and been told. I am gonna do some more playing today after work. I'll set the VGT wide open and do a couple of tunes with various timing curves and see if I can get some results.
  9. Reduce smoke as a result of getting boost up faster or reduce smoke as a result of moving the flame later into the stroke and getting a more complete burn?
  10. The DMV got back to me. the limit state wide is %35 for 5 seconds. :headscratch: they can't point me to a document however.... gotta love government lol. Oh well I have the doc. I hope the exhaust readers here don't limit me to %20 because I don't have time to raise a stink lolol. I am sure I can pass below %35 no matter what they do. now I am just trying to fine tune my tune to get as much power as possible while passing emissions So back on topic @AH64ID @carbur8tr Any thoughts on low rpm / offidle timing levels to help reduce smoke when fueling commanded is held at a position? I was pretty confused when I couldn't notice a difference between 11* of timing and 17* of timing.
  11. only if that bucket of money is topped off with time. edit: looks like I may have found the document.... It appears that either El Paso county does not follow this document from the state, or that it has changed since last year, or that exhaust readers in the Springs is not following the standard.
  12. I honestly cannot find ANY documents that specify what ocapity is allowed in El Paso county but the sheet every year says %20. I am going to ask this time for the specification they follow because %20 is stupid low for our altitude. @TFaoro if only I had time to mess with it, I would love to. I would also love to try a set of 7 x .011's with pop pressure set to 330 bar.
  13. My yearly test is coming up on Friday. I have been working hard to figure out how much fuel I can throw at the truck without causing visible smoke. I am allowed %20 opacity on lug down tests at 40, 50, 60 mph. This will be the first year I have run the Quadzilla during the test. I have my tune nailed down pretty well. starting % of 76 seems to be where there is next to 0 visible smoke in any situtation. Last year with the smarty on %50 power mode I ended up at %7 opacity, so I am guessing I am going to at in the 10%-15% range in the test. I can turn down the fuel more, but I want to try and pass with as much fuel as possible. It is also worth noting that I am runnning 900 us of wiretap as well, ramping up once boost hits 6 psi. Next comes timing. 1500 rpm: 16* 2000 rpm: 18* 2500 rpm: 22* 3000 rpm: 24* Max: 26* Timing reduction: 5* ( max timing to pull if at WOT and 0 psi, linear ramp up as boost comes up / TPS decreases) Fuel load timing: 2* ( how much timing to pull at 0% load, timing will reach the rpm limit if duration is at %100) light throttle timing: 2* ( not really considered during the lug down test as they go WOT) So questions, the theory is you pull timing to reduce smoke offidle? I have to say I ran 5 different tunes that were exactly the same other than timing reduction value, I honestly couldn't see any differences between WOT offilde at 11* of timing vs 16 * of timing. little confused by that. Anyone have any insight in regards to what to do with timing to maximize fueling without increasing smoke?
  14. 4300k puts out the most visible light.
  15. 4300 or bust. finally burnt out a bulb after 3 years.
  16. Start by testing your ground and power leads to the ecm and PCM. No crank leads me to believe that there is something very basic wrong. It might be hard to find but I would guess easy to fix.
  17. Is there another splitter company I am thinking of? Something to the effect of not recommend for use on diesel or when towing. Dunno memory is foggy.
  18. I think even gear vendor says not to use their unit when you tow.
  19. use the part number lookup tool to see how it attaches https://mopar1973man.com/external-media/pdf/9496Ramparts.pdf#view=FitB&page=1192
  20. fixed it for you
  21. great we can tow each other
