Quadzilla V2 Custom Tunes

[trreed]

Can you post a pic of the turbo, specifically the compressor cover and how the wastegate is run?

[Dieselfuture]

I'll take few pictures when I can, I'm not by the truck now, and it may be few days, but it says right on it hx35w, my guess is luck was on my side.

It has a waste gate and it's been stock shut for about 4 years now. I freed it up when I was putting exhaust break on, but after a month or so it quit working again. So I've been trying to stay below 40, and most of time try not to go over 30. But this run was wot with can bus maxed out and wire tap at 2000. Boost shut up so fast past 40, I was like , had it flored in each gear for about 3 seconds. Starting in 2nd. Fuel pressure dropped to 16 from 18-19, usually I only see 1psi swing. 

[trreed]

Ah that explains it.  Yeah, you sure are lucky.  Like Nick said, I would confirm with a mechanical gauge what the actual boost levels are.  My Quad has given me boost values of 50+ psi before, and the mechanical gauge said it was 43 psi...

[Dieselfuture]

I think I'll just lay off my Racing tune for a while, maybe if I ever figure out which turbo I want to go with. Plus I don't want to change my hx35 just because, it still works great. When time comes to rebuilding it, I'll see what I have and if it's just a regular hx35 I'll look into hybrid or other.  I was just mainly wondering if it was even possible to hit 50 psi with an hx35.

The WTS light is the light to show that the ecm is turning on. Think of the WTS light as

 

Well guys unfortunately the new MAP sensor didn't fix the issue. Quad is still logging fluctuating boost pressures. Still need to check the wires really good from the ecm but other that that anyone have anything else that could help?

still having WTS light delay?

Yeah, it takes about 7s after key on for the pump to prime.

*will count actual seconds tomorrow

I hate to be the bear of bad news, but the V2 isn't going to work well with your dying ECM.   The V2 relies too much on solid sensor input that the ECM doesn't appear to be giving you.   If it was anything but the WTS being delayed I would say you shoudl dig more, but the WTS issue is pretty damning.

 

You can revert back to the older tunes, they should work better as they read from the Map sensor directly since they don't need filtered reads to have smooth fueling.   

 

However I would serously consider looking for a new ecm before you are left somewhere.

Anyone you recommend getting a new ecm from? eBay? Geno's? Or find a cummins dealer?

 

thanks for your help

       Had some time this weekend to play with a racing tune. Over all it worked well I though, some to minimal smoke and good power. Although I had my Boost defuel set at 37psi and EGT at 1300, data logging said I was at 49psi and 1500 egt. I may reduce it to 32 and 1100 and see how it defuels.  

 

 

Hey Dieselfuture, What revision of the base code are you using? If you look at the sensor data, you should see something that says Build Date, that is going to report the revision of the base code and may look  something like 20170217 or something similar. You want to make sure that you are using 20170315 or greater to make sure that  you have the backdown bug fixed. That could be why you are blowing right past your backdowns.

@Quadzilla Power I will double check, thanks. Pretty sure I updated it to most recent. Never know though. 

Any ideas why my quad BT loses conection sometimes, just says device conection lost or something like that.

I'm not sure about that. It could be any number of things from random electrical noise, to your phone dropping it, to electro-magnetic interference from overhead power lines.As long as the BT unit has power and is receiving a signal from the Adrenaline, it should give you a pretty strong signal. You might try moving the location of the BT module and see if it helps.

I have a iquad and for some reason my truck shows it's building 4 pounds of boost at idle any suggestions 

[trreed]

Check to see if your box has a jumper installed in the pins like the ones circle in the picture below.  98.5-00 trucks should not have a jumper, 01-02 trucks should have it, to make the boost read right

Kind of like mine showing 2 PSI of boost with the key on and engine off. 

[Me78569]

That's what the ECM is likely seeing as sensor input.  What year truck is it?  

 

It's a sensor input so if the sensor is incorrect then the reading is incorrect.  0-2 psi is normal 4 psi is high.

[thatblackvptruck]

It's a 2001

[Me78569]

Test your sensor.  I would assume your sensor is old and it is not able to read under 4 psi.

Hey guys, brand new member here.  

 

Im at a complete loss, with the fear of sounding dumb, im totally clueless with this V2 tuning.  Ive read everything on here and on the v2 tuning page.  But for some reason im having trouble understanding it all.  Ive never tuned before.  

 

So in order to get a little help here, i used the tune that ive quoted in my truck the other night.  EXCESSIVE smoke.  Very high EGTs, and some popping.  

 

So im asking for a little bit of guidance feom you guys.  Spencer at quadzilla told me to look u guys up.  Im willing to learn, dont really want to come in here and have everything handed to me on a silver platter.  Just trying to get this truck dialed in, without melting it down in the meantime.  I have edited my profile so u guys can see what i ha e dont to my rig.  Im also trying to upload my url to my profile so u can watch a cpl videos on my youtube channel to better understand my issues.  

 

So, with all that being said, can yall give me a hand with getting a good tune set up?

@TJ_00Cummins with bigger injectors like you have you want to start your 0 psi at maybe 80% or so to get smoke cleared up.
