Hahaha yea

added a video for how ot flash with the windows 10 thread.

boost fooling from the ez. Remember the obdlink is showing you what the ECM is seeing, the Edge is limiting what hte ecm sees.

that's a stupid good price assuming they take ANY pride in their work.

yep I will try that the next long trip I take Until then I am going to enjoy my new springs and studs of course after a week of heat cycles and a retorque.

that's very interesting. My truck absolutely likes 19*-20* of timing at 65. maybe I should drop that timing down and see what she does haha. I was seeing over 24mpg at 65mph with 19*

What flash are you running? If you haven't done the most recent I would. That helps me know what the quad is doing exactly. But yes what you are seeing is cruise timing kicking in. IF you are at a steady speed and steady load above 40 mph cruise timing kick in to try and get your MPG up. if your cruise timing is set to 2* then I would expect to see timing in the 18-19* region. If you jump on the trhrottle timing willing drop, as it should, to be more performance orinated.

i'd just let mike do the Leg work and copy his tune hahaha.

As you start getting to a science for mpg you are right, you would need a tune for each situation. It would be nearly impossible to tune the truck perfect for all situations regardless of the platform. The question most of us have to ask is if there is a big enough reason to justify that? For you it might be, for me not so much haha. For myself I normally drive 55 or 60 everywhere regardless so one tune works fine. Sometimes I do 75 but it is so rare that I don't really see a need for tuning time on that.

truth

I wish I had all the time in the world to mess with it. I'd try a set of 7 x . 012's with bumped pop pressure and see if I could get it to idle haha. I find it interesting that you would have stall issues though, the ECM does a great job of trying to prevent that at idle. if I only had time

What do you mean exactly? Is there a situtaiton you saw that you need explained? how load eddects timing depends on what your max load timing offset is set at. Kody, I am the farthest thing from an injector expert you will find. I was only mulling over that idea as a way to help clean up idle smoke. In my mind ( I might be way wrong) if you set pop pressure up by ~10-20 bar the injectors will pop at a higher pressure and thus help idle smoke. However that is only my very limited understanding of how the injectors work. You should really do some research into it if you wanted to try it because I really don't know. @jlbayes thoughts experience?

point is don't be so concerned about boost, once you are over 30-35 psi you are "making enough" If there is an issue then resolve the issue, but don't think just because boost is at x ,y , or z that there is an issue.

Much easier to do. I would assume you are right at the limit for shaft speed now.

I know early flashes would run the lift pump for 5 seconds on key on, later flashes had just a blip to the lift pump. I would assume this is what airsoft is getting at. To much fuel pressure on crank can overly advance the injection pump for start. As long as your system is primed you shouldn't need really any inlet pressure to start the truck. I am assuming this is why the flash changed.

Meh I would boost leak test it and forget about. The Quad is likely off by a few psi just due to the nature of the electrical gauge.

1. test for boost leaks 2. don't worry about PSI you live at ~6000' altitude. what it "should make" is not really the case.

You are reading boost over the sci bus I am reading it over the canbus port under the hood. The canbus port under the hood reports boost as .5 kpa per A It's interesting to me that the sci bus reports it differently.

Well don't tease us. I don't know the result and I would much rather listen to someone who has already spent time messing with it.

once you get a tune you like you can just keep running it. I haven't changed my DD tune in ~2 weeks and that was only because I updated the flash for full timing control, before that I hadn't touched the tune in a month. At this point I don't forsee the need to ever change my DD tune I am happy wiht it as it is. You can spend as much or little time with it as you like. The more time you get the better the truck will run, but you will gain the most right away then the change will be less and less noticable as you get it tuned. If you truly read the tuning article I dont see any reason why you shouldn't have a good tune setup in less than 2 hours. Once you get the hang of it then you can do another tune, for say tow or race in next to no time. The how to tune is at the bottom of the tuning article Look it over and see what you think.

lets let things settle for a bit before we go changing stuff. Stepping down injectors to a smaller size is also a good choice, there is honestly no need for huge injecotrs a DD truck, 500 hp is still fun to drive.

Some thoughts about maybe raising the pop pressure on some bigger injectors says 7 x .011's ish maybe 12's and see if we can reduce the issues related to the limitations of pressure control in our injection system and limitations of mechanical injectors.

The only explination was that at half time the patriots went to the falcons locker room and paid them all off to throw the game. That or...... Meh I had some chicken wings which made my night good. We only have over the air channels, but it was on Fox so we popped it on.

That's why I use an old phone for it.
