After some feedback from various people @Quadzilla Power was good enough to bump the canbus low limit for 0 -4 psi settings to %125 rather than %115. 


Really for stock injector trucks only, but  that does mean that Torque mangement should be overcome if you set your race tune to be %125 off the line.  

Any expectations when this latest update will come out?

Anyone still using the "V2 Quadzilla-ONLY" profile on the app should switch to the year range V2 profile now.   I am doing some testing on unrelated stuff and have changed some stuff with the profile.  If you update the profile  you will be confused.

Don't update the V2 Quadzilla-only profile.  you will be confused....

 

Sadly yes you will have to retype your profiles.  You can write them down or just not update the vehicle profile.  I am hoping the tune export function of the app will come along shortly.

@Me78569 Gotcha, that makes since now. You updated "V2 Quadzilla-ONLY" for something you're working on, and we should update to vehicle year profile as it's been updated to what the "V2 Quadzilla-ONLY" used to be or something like that. Would it be safe to stay with "V2 Quadzilla-ONLY" that we loaded originally few months ago? Or is there a better reason to upgrade the app.

Hey guys, wanted to introduce myself officially to the V2 testing thread. I'm Kole. I have a 2001 2500 4x4 Automatic with ridiculous 7x.014 VCO injectors (woops...) and compounds. And I live in Saskatchewan, Canada. Yes it gets really cold here.

 

I just finished reading through all 44 pages in their entirety. Oddly enough it kinda feels like I know some of you guys now. I actually started testing V2 on September 12th of last year (conveniently on my birthday). I reached out to Quad directly over the phone about some tuning advice, and we got to talking. When I told them about my setup and issues with low end smoke/spool up, they told me about V2 tuning, and they agreed to let me try it. I did a couple data logs regarding torque management that they requested and I played around for months after that (until my truck had enough torque to point out a defect in my TC lockup clutch in mid December. Double woops.)

 

Got the thing back on the road this past Friday, around which time I discovered this thread. I had no idea this was going on. I was in contact with Spencer long ago via email, who was helpful, and apparently possibly Nick at one point? Maybe a different Nick? Who knows. Anyway, I was blown away to see all the cooperative testing and effort put in. And Nick getting whipped like the family Mule and coming back for more. Good stuff. I do industrial automation for a living and programming is a big part of my job. I definitely smell what you're stepping in.

 

So I missed a crap load of updates, but I'm caught up now on the most recent flash. I freakin love it. The low psi timing reduction scared the crap out of me since I've never heard the truck sound with retarded timing. Free revving it is also different, sounds kinda neat. My spool up is definitely better. One thing I noticed is that it's not the timing reduction alone that speeds up spool up. The timing reduction is actually allowing me to run at least 10% more canbus fuelling from 0-5psi with LESS smoke than on regular timing. The result is... cool. Very cool. I can have very respectable spool times and just keep a gentle haze. Score.

 

I'm going to try to get close to a daily driving tune tomorrow (with no wiretap), and I plan on working back and forth between Canbus fuelling and timing adjustments, as it seems like they affect each other to a certain degree. This is way too much fun. I'll post a tune and any interesting findings as they become relevant. If you prefer I can leave the tunes out of this thread and move over to the custom tunes thread with that business.

 

Anyway, thanks for the hard work, and I look forward to helping any way I can. Viva La VP44.

 

-Kole

Same Nick..Well the coder formallly known as Nick

 

Thanks a TON for those data logs back then bud.  they really helped.  I am pretty sure you can overwhelm TM now.  If you still have issues with it.... let me know :whistle:

 

 

Interesting to hear your spool vs timing vs canbus fueling.    I would love to see some videos out the back when you are driving hard.  

 

I know my truck is %100 clean on lug down and WOT snaps, but I have baby injectors.

One thing that's huge for me is towing. It was very hard before, lots of manual shifting, and hard not to lug and cause Armageddon out the tailpipe. Reason being, let's say I need to downshift in order not to lug. So to downshift I need more throttle to pull the trans TV cable. Without low boost de-fueling, by the time I can get a downshift I've made like a squid and inked out the highway. Now it has enough buffer, especially while in cruise control, to slooooowly pull the go pedal down and get a downshift for optimum load before heavy fuel is dumped in. Big win.

You are a bit brave with that single disc and compounds. Especially with an hx35 on the manifold lol

Haha, yeah that's probably true. However, the shop I deal with warrantied the first one, as they said it would handle the power, and they built the VB. They traded me straight up for a 48RE converter this time, and put a different mount on my pump so the 48RE converter could fit. They think she'll last, so we'll give it a go, haha. Upped the line pressure a little and drilled a couple more "speed holes" in the VB. I could have spent the extra $800 CAD for a triple disk... But I didn't feel right about doing that on my stock input shafts, especially on my locked 3-4 shifts.
