Quadzilla Adrenaline V2 Testing

1. Yes, the best way I can describe it would be a lope.  Not a hard lope but more of a vibration that is audible like the engine has a bit of a hitch.

 

2. Not sure and really not sure why it would be idling so low.  I believe that it is still within the window of normality but regardless I've never had a problem like this before.

 

3. I have the same question, not terribly convinced it's due to the Quad but 790s is definitely getting down there.

I think I know what you guys are talking about.  It's light lope / hollow sounding idle?

 

However this only happens for me on deceleration no load, and this has always done it for me since day 1 of owning the truck.  Maybe I am used to it ?

Mmmm not always but I know what you're referring to and it's more pronounced than that.

 

Mike, I wish I could say it was only when things were warmed up but it has happened when the truck is cold as well.

 

@Me78569 I have 4 pulls with data that I sent you via message.  It works but I think I might have discovered something that will end up being a pain in the *** to deal with.  No idea how quickly the quad is able to react but I can blow through the low boost limit like no ones business.  It's all in the data but I believe one time I was able to touch close to 31psi or so with only 80% throttle. Most of the pulls are towards the end of each data export.  

 

Another thing I noticed is that it would often times seem as though it would react late and still apply back down even though I had already gotten out of the boost.  Not sure if this is just due to the time delay in the data or what but odd if you looks at when the backdown is applied vs when the boost is coming up.

 

I had a thought though, is there any way that we could lower the boost max for cold mornings.  Right now I think the lowest it will go is 23 which is what I had it at today.  I think it would be nice to limit the truck to say 10psi on cold mornings to help with timing and head gaskets.  Most common time I heard of people blowing head gaskets was on cold mornings prior to the truck being up to temp.  Just thoughts.

Overall yes it seems to settle but feels almost like it's hunting.  Data doesn't quite point towards hunting but it feels like the power is going in and out which is not a bad thing and seems to hold fairly well.  Check you inbox for the data.

 

Little note here as well is the second run where the back down stayed the same but the boost tried to hold around 18ish.

I did some testing today with the new backdowns. 

I set the boost limit to 30psi. Now keep in mind on level 3 (canbus-only) I'm seeing around 50 psi. When stabbing it on level 3 boost spiked to 38 or 39 and settled down to 28-29 very quickly. I'm very happy with that. I think backdown was around 65% with that limit set. There's just nothing you can do to stop a spike when boost builds that fast. 

I also tested the EGT at 1200 deg. I can build a lot of heat when rpms are lower, but at 1850rpm and above with can-bus fueling only egts don't surpass 1100. So I lugged it down to 1400rpm and held it to the floor. I think egts only made it to 1250 then were quickly pulled back down to 1160-1200. I tested it with a healthy amount of wiretap (which my egts can go 1800+) and egts made it to 1350 before they were pulled back down to around 1200. Again the spiking is very hard to stop with so much fuel. 

 

Overall I've very happy with it. I'd be confident to loan my truck to someone and let them pull a load without blowing it up. 

Good work @Me78569 and thank you!

@Carbur8tr  the boost backdown starts at backdoown psi - 2 so it will try and keep boost in that area.  that's why you saw it trying to hold at 18,  thats the only way I can attempt to keep boost from overshooting to far. 

 

 

I know what you mean about hunting.  It will ramp down fuel, then if it hits the limit as boost is falling it will add fuel back at %25 the rate.

Hey guys here is a list of my current tunes. Feel free to give me some advise!

 

My truck has: 5" tbe, BHAF, FASS 150.

 

It is a 5 speed and also has stock injectors.

 

Since I installed the iQuad I can't believe the power on some of the tunes! It definitely wakens the beast and gets her moving in a hurry. I have also noticed that my truck runs a lot cooler. If I coast down a hill that is a mile or longer my coolant temp will drop down below 140. Is this a common occurrence for you guys as well? I ran the two tune last weekend and averaged 18.4 MPG towing a trailer @63 MPH. This weekend I will be doing another 1000ish mile road trip and I will be interested in trying a economy tune you guys come up with.

I would check your thermostat for your downhill issue. 

 

 

I would also try beefing up your low canbus fueling some.  I am guessing you can run a starting point of 105 ish without smoke. But that will take trial and error.  

 

I would also suggest raising the wiretap psi up and beefing up canbus fueling.  That should give you more controlled power down low.

 

 

Good MPG towing though.
