    LMM: DSP5 Switch

    That's why you leave the tcm tune alone and make the power in the ecm more digressive from 50mm3 to 80mm3.

    L5P L5P Tuning

    My ignorance always assumed the guys at efi live, as you said, play favorites. I now have a whole new view on you professional tuners :D. I wish I were mart enough, and had the equipment to hack ecm's and find new tables. Man that'd be cool.

    L5P L5P Tuning

    Thats pretty cool guys have the patience to go digging for tables that they desire. A guy can see why some of these guys take their tuning very seriously. I can see how it can easily turn into a strong passion. Alot of time and dedication.

    L5P L5P Tuning

    I've heard what we have is pretty the bare minimum sort of speak. SO is it a situation where smart guys have found more tables, that are useful to them, than what efi live offers? Or is it a situation where the big name guys, who have showed business loyalty, get rewarded with possible extra...

    L5P L5P Tuning

    I've often pondered the same question. It gets annoying as to how many tables we don't have access to. I called a tuner once about buying a base tune and was told it would contain proprietary information. That has always made me wonder if us average folks get shafted from all the tables.

    On the road and truck acting odd

    I've noticed by 60mm3, cruise on, if your not making a certain psi of boost it'll downshift. Build more than whatever limiter is set on boost psi, and it'll go up to 80mm3 before it downshifts. Becomes a small issue with bigger vgts

    Not your normal shift defuel question

    I haven't messed with the LBZ much at all, but I assume it is similar to the picky LMM in areas. These guys are correct, we dont have complete access to torque control in the tcm tune. In a perfect world, what I posted above is correct, but in reality it doesnt do what it 'should' do. I learned...

    Not your normal shift defuel question

    You are aware how to torque match your tcm torque control table to your pedal torque desired table in the ecm?? Look at how gm did this with the stock tunes and it will make sense, it's really straight forward. To add more defuel, lower the values slightly in the torque control area in your...

    LBZ tune help

    Is the fuel mixture table still stock? I know if you put that table too far to the lean side, spool up is very slow. You could try adding 7%to the max vane table from 1000rpm-1800rpm.

    LBZ tune help

    My computer is KIA right now, so I can't see your tune right now. Where is your maximum vane pos set at in those lower rpm spool areas, and during all of this how is smoke output?

    Smoke Control

    I can get my smoke off the line handled pretty decent, but I too struggle with the 6th to 5th smoke a bit, and the 6th to 4th is even tougher. However its a day to day process :)

    Smoke Control

    Yes^^^ I use 1.135 for ex in my extreme low boost areas. Gives a small haze for spoolup. As soon as I begin picking up boost it ramps up to as high as 1.4. It doesnt suprise me 1.3 you get a puff, and 1.4 its a dog. Try 1.31, then 1.32 etc... find the fine line of good spoolup vs smoke. You...

    Smoke Control

    I like to use a bit richer mixture for 0-3psi, and then lean it out alot from there. I also shoot for a small haze. Any less and spool up suffers a bit. I can notice .01 for adjustments. Takes alot of time finding the sweet spot with this table for sure

    Lets talk air filters quick - BANKS synthetic filter?

    My truck has had a banks cai since 08'. I want to get a new filter for piece of mind, which I figured would be easy. Well, I did some simple searching to see whats all out there now, because in my mind I wanted to get a paper filter from S&B. I see BANKS now offers a synthetic dry filter, one...

    LB7: CTS2 wont connect after DSP5 flash?

    I tuned my buddies 04 LB7 tonight. All went well, but his cts2 doesn't connect to the truck anymore. Says it needs to reboot and unplug it. You do so, and the same message appears? I read out the stock tune, ran a script to perform the desired changes (I used a 9044 OS for my script). This has...

    I'd contact Mark and pick his brain.
