IMO great night at the track. Truck is finally shifting and we saw a max of 3394RPM@WOT! The truck is finally doing what is asked of it, defueling to the amount it is set to, shifting at reasonable RPM.

All downhill from here :thumb: :D

:spit:


Ran 4 times, all 13.90-13.70 @ 101-104 mph, 60's are junk, but thats why its test and tune :D

Have some videos from gopro will see how skilled I am with them. I am happy though, 13.70 isnt anything to be excited about, but no hung shifts, no nasty defuel, no Vtech rpm's, nothing. Clean shifts. :coolspot: 2000 us tune. Nothing big..

That truck is a complete dog out of the hole. Picks up 2nd half, but then its too late. What do boost numbers look like? Did you get the fueling fixed?
What RPM do you launch at, Brian? Still full weight, too?

Had tires at 35psi front, and 32psi rear on 265's. Launched at 13-14psi, Truck will pull through the brakes at anything higher. Not sure if the ML is loose enough for the S480. Got the fueling fixed Tom, as odd as it sounds, the shift happens exactly 600rpm from what the tune says..., so still working it out, but its the first 100% throttle pass the truck has seen. Would blow right past the shift with stock defuel and TLIQ tables, I messed with the WOT rpm/mph shifting and have it set down to 2800rpm and still clicks shifts off at 3200-3400. I loaded a +200uS tune in after it shifted smoothly and it started to pull fuel from when we were trying to get it to shift before, but atleast its doing what the tune says, not blowing right past a set shift point. Still full weight, ~ 7600 lbs. Removed spare and tailgate. Need to get it on a scale :eek:

Glad to hear its finally doing what its told. Congrats

Thanks Eric, its nice to finally have a good starting point. :thumb:

Could you please change the tag of the you tube vid from twin turbo dmax to old worn out farm truck? For the sake of all dmaxes out there?
