@Mopar1973Man are you still using IAT fooler to summer like temperature with your current v2 tuning 

Yes. Helps A bunch with the cold mornings.

 

Funny I made the mistake of leavimy my Performance tune loaded and it's doing better MPGs than my economy tune.

Hmmm....

 

I wonder why? Advanced timing?

That's what I'm wondering too, on the cold morning you would think you want grid heaters to be on, 

[Mopar1973Man]

Timing is more retard. Fuel map starts at 105% and exponential growth of 1.5% vs the economy tune that starts at 100% and exponential growth of 1.2%. So that being said I might try bumping the fuel map harder and heading for 1.6% which will make it more smokey. My 1.2% curve is smoke free. My 1.5% I can see like haze to small clouds.

Hey everybody, re torqued my studs today, re lashed me some valves, and turned up the quad with some impressive results. 4th gear broke the tires loose at 50 psi boost. Quad was only on level 4 (out of 7) so 33% wire tap. Holy crap!!!

 

Pictures are of the work that had to be done, now I have O-ringed head, New valves, hardened seats, and 100# valve springs.

 

Hoping to do some tuning on the turn pike tomorrow, its my 28th birthday and I am going to go ride jet ski's at key largo.

 

I love the new features, I just need to get my can bus fueling figured out before I start dicking with the new timing features too much.

I will say the new timing stuff has added a good bit of under the curve meat.  I think everyone agree's that throttle response is improved.  

[Me78569]

@TFaoro   This I should just bump the max RPM limit on the V2 to 4k?  that way people will see 4k and go wow so much wow?  Call the tune uselessfuel tune

 if you can do it without burning up the box I don't see why not!

What new timing stuff?

[Me78569]

Pre you switching.  You used to just set a max timing increase.  Now, you have this, you set a limit for various points in the rpm range.  

 

Spend some time dialing this in and you will notice a difference.  

[crf450ish]

I am not entirely understanding how to make my own tunes. I keep reading numbers in relation to exponential growth. I just read the first 6 pages of this thread. 

 

I'll be the first to tell you that I am a math retard... if it ain't spoon fed to me then I'm lost. Thats why i'm just a dumb welder, lol. 

 

However, once I grasp it, the lightbulb will shine bright (one can only hope). Since my 176 mile round trip, I have noticed the fuel gauge move less. I forgot to write down how many gallons @ fillup , so had to rely on the eyeball method, as the lie-o-meter is as useful as **** on a boar. 

 

I just need to know what to look for. I have the tunes @Me78569 posted in the custom tunes thread as a baseline. Very smooth! He did say those are for 7k feet elev. and that i should add 20% to CANbus, being that I'm @ 2,300'.

 

Ok, is there some kind of graphing tool I can use? I see @Mopar1973Man posting graphs all the time. Good stuff! 

 

Lastly....most importantly.....my wifes satisfaction with the Quad is undeniable as she drove truck today first time since installing Quad. Good to have my other 1/2 on board. She grew up racing hot rod 4x4s in the PNW4WDA, so the itch is something she understands. 

[Me78569]

haha since you have stock injetors your canbus fueling should start over %100.

 

Go out, build a tune that mike uses. then floor it from a stop.  Does it smoke? if so bump canbus fueling down by a % until smoke clears.

I'm just using LibreOffice Calc to graph my data in Linux. Windows users typically do the same thing using Microsoft Excel.

I've been logging every bit of fuel since 20k miles. I've got a spiral notebook in my center console that I write down odometer mileage, total cost, gallons, fill yes/no, price per gallon, and date.

So build a tune Mike uses, cause his injectors are only 50HP, closer to stock most folks with quad I'm assuming. And then just adjust can bus only? Leave everything alone?

 

I going to call his tunes 

 

1973 MPG

1973 FUN

 

etc. etc. lol. 

[Mopar1973Man]

The "Fun" tune you might find does a bit better on MPG really but you got to have a light foot.

[Me78569]

Pretty much you want to throw as much canbus fueling at it as possible until you start seeing smoke.  then you start bumping wiretap until you get a nice pull up top.

[Dieselfuture]

I'm using Mike's fun tune, with very little tweaking and I love it, fits my truck. It's basically my daily driving tune. You have to watch out for your cruise timing, will depend on what speed you run down the highway.

[Me78569]

Si, stock injector trucks will need ~ 1* less cruise timing than I would.  Maybe even a bit less than 1* due to my altiutude.  

I would say cruise timing of ~2* is a good starting point for most stock injector trucks.

 

[crf450ish]

bumping wire tap means bumping minimum pump tap fuel % right?

[Me78569]

or where it applies "psi low limit" or tps max and min or stretch.

 

I would leave the min pump tap fuel % at 0 for DD tunes.  that setting is really an effort to overcome Torque management on a race tune.  

 

Just remember that canbus makesup the meat of your fueling.  So the better your canbus fueling is the better your truck will run.  The wiretap just adds that little bit on top, think of it as going to 11 on your amp
