Well in my case ever since I put on 62/67/12 HX35 hybrid, I can't seem to be able to go passed 35 psi and that is almost with all the fuel I can toss at it without exessive smoke, yes I could possibly still have a boost leak I only check for leaks at 25psi so I will double check at 35 if my home made contraption doesn't blow appart. But long story short when I did change scale from 40 to 35 boost went up to 37, guessing that little bit more fuel helped. I'm only running 75hp injectors so I think that's my limitation at this point, sometimes in future I'll get 100 or 150hp. But I'm pretty happy with what I got as it is, when that wire tap kicks in it feels like nitrous on my mustang I used to have. And got it tuned in decent too not much smoke at all, I still use go pedal for most of that control though. But even if I floor it off the line it clears up pretty quick. 

 

Little update, found that my boots were leaking some boost right through the rubber. Put new boots on now I can hit 42psi on mechanical gauge and quad reporting 50psi. So I now put boost scaling back to 40.

Just got my quadzilla for my 2000 24v last week and have been reading this thread over and over again ?. Has anybody come up with a good driving smoke tune? (No i don’t want it for the purpose of piss people off while driving but just for taking pictures of my truck and stuff) I’ve been trying to find a good one that will lay down a nice solid black cloud of smoke but all I’m coming up with is nothing that’s drivable ?. Any help is appreciated as I’m really new to the v2 tuning! This thread has helped a lot already!

No.

 

You have a great tool that allows you to have the best of both worlds. Virtually smoke free and fuels hard as hell. If you want smoke then you’re in the wrong crowd and don’t take that as me being rude. It’s simply respect for our community.

It will smoke as much as you tell it to.  That's as much as we will give you.  Learn how to do it from the tuning side.

I think i'm getting misunderstood here. I won't be driving this tune down the road smoking out the street. diesel in Michigan is almost $3/gal so i have no intentions of doing that. i was just looking for a tune for taking pictures only, I 100% agree that anybody who just drives around rolling coal is just making a fool of themselves and our community. That's not what i'm looking to do. So far ive gotten a "MPG' tune that is getting me a pretty steady 16mpg while going 80mph down the highway that im still looking to impove on. A "daily" tune that im still working on as it isnt very smooth right now and still needs some tweeking and a "fun" one for messing around with the local ricers ;)

Did some tweaking with my MPG tune and got 16.9 mpg going 80mph. Pulled into the gas station and of course as I go to export my data log the quad freezes and clears all the log it recorded for my 100 mile trip ?‍♂️. I’ll post my tune details in a bit to see what you guys think I should tweek, but is their any fix for the quad failing? Or is it just a common occurrence? Was really hoping to look at my log tonight ?

100 miles would be a massive log file, I'm not surprised that it crashed. I think the logging function is meant to be used in shorter durations to see the results of a specific situation. IE a 1/4 mile WOT run, a few minutes of cruising, etc. Somebody will jump in if I'm out to lunch here. If you tried to navigate a .CSV file of that size, you would be pulling your hair out.

It got extended because out here I've got long stretches of highway and nowhere to pull over. Originally it was only a 5 minute log file and never could log issues at all because by the time I could pull over safely I already lost the information in the log file.

Gotcha. I’ve seen earlier in this thread that their is gunna be a new update with a mpg function? If so that will come in handy so I won’t have to get gas every time I change my mpg tune ?

Ummm... I hope you are not buying "GAS" for a diesel truck... :duh: I hope you are buying FUEL for your truck... :wink:

I do a 50/50 mix of gas and diesel. I feel like it flows better through my engine ?? I’ve been driving a diesel for 2 years now and don’t think I’ve ever said I was going out to buy diesel ?

the next update will contain a gallons used trip meter and an instant mpg meter,  it will not have a average mpg.

it's very diffcult to average long term like that.  I might consider it down the road, but my attempts to do it ended up running into major issues.

here is my tune for mpg with stock injectors, i'm currently getting 16.9 while going 80mph. what can i change to get this up a little more. my buddy has the same truck same mods and is getting 18-19 (so he says) with his edge and its killing me!

add more timing   each truck is a little different.  Mikes truck likes ~23* of timing at 65 mind likes 19.5-20* at 65  Keep walking up your cruise timing by .5* until you start the feel the truck have a "lul" when you go into cruise state.  egts should also come down the closer you come to opitiomal timing.

However 17 at 80 is not bad.   I would ask your friend for some proof pudding.

yes how much timing you get, as a total, when you are at cruise state..  this is the setting the light throttle timing controls.

I got my Quad on Friday...of course i am leaving town again and had a very long list of honey dues so didn't get any further then installing it on the truck. 

 

ME, the fuel milage update, will that be another gauge to watch or what?  Will i have to install more sensors, (i am a cheap sob).  

 

I am really impressed with how much data the Quad can pull with just a few wires being plugged in.  CanBus, wire tap, egt, ignition, power, ground, and we have mph, rpm, load, tps, and egt, pretty amazing.
