Those are what I have from Matt an I'm gonna try and get some things that may need to be tweaked if any. So far I'm happy with them but I'm gonna try some others also unless I get the php ficm tuner first

Re: Sh*t's about to get real!

FICM tuner is a win in my book. looking to get a used FICM to swap and then send mine in.. i think the 40-60 is what i am looking at.. but maybe the 80:naughty:

give KEM a try man. great fuel mileage and it goes when you hit it. the race is only smokey at 5/8 throttle to WTFO.

i use a detuned street and like it a lot, you would not be as smokey on the race like i am. 190 vs 175, although your 100% and i am 75% i believe

I am sure it does.

Just wanted to poke him and see if he ordered any new goodies.

He got his steering wheel recovered, I saw that on another forum we're on.

Re: Sh*t's about to get real!

Shit did get real and still is. truck runs great mechaincally but im still fighting tuning issues.

I have a new tune from gearhead that im still working on getting it the way i want it to be and i also got two tunes from TSD (truck source diesel) that im currently trying. the one im running right now is the early lockup file and its in 5th by 45mph. it runs great and shifts smooth but the problem is when im cruising around 45-55 and need to speed up it bellows a massive cloud of smoke and i dont want that. on my gearhead the issue was getting it to unlock the TC and downshift but on the TSD tune its not going to downshift i think because of how its written. Im going to try the file he sent that isnt the early lockup version soon.

I also updated my CTS to add the datalogging feature and should have some fun with that and use it to help with tuning.

I was going to look into FICM tuning from PHP but i stopped due to the reviews from people with larger injectors than stock not being favorable. seems like its not read for bigger sticks just yet.

all other mods like wheel etc updates will be in the other thread.

Right on. I hope you get the tuning the way you want it soon, man.

Have you been able to hook onto any loads, and have some fun with it, yet?
