EFILive 5.9L Beta Update
Here is an extract of what we posted on our forum last night, although it's a little outdated now, so please read right to the end.
Hi All, Well the good news is the testers are ready to move on to phase two of the beta program. This will involve tuning the trucks The first phase of the beta involved reading the ECM calibrations out and then reflashing the unmodified tunes back in. There was a couple of teething problems with a module on the CAN bus causing some grief but that was sorted out pretty fast. The feedback we have from on truck reading / flashing is as follows. * No fuse removal required. * No DTC's set. * No VIN cleared. * No double key off/on at end of flash. * Interrupted reflash full recovery ok. ECM Read Time: 4:30 ECM Flash Time: 5:30 These times are a typical average, it does vary by maybe 10 - 20 seconds depending on the operating system in the truck, all the test trucks are of course 2006-2007's. All good news so far! The even better news is that overnight we've had a number of testers modify the calibrations in their vehicles with excellent results on a few fronts. Firstly, the software worked without issue - there are no dead trucks (or ECM's), there are still no errors/DTC's or VIN issues at the end of the flash. On the tuning front, the comments we've received include * Much smoother delivery of power. * Drivability improvements. * The results from these few table changes compare to nothing else I've tried. There is still lots of testing to be done to bullet-proof the software before it's released, but we are much closer to a release date than we were just a few days ago. Cheers Cindy |
Which means the 6.7L trucks are that much closer too:D
Good News!! Chris |

I saw all the images,
before & after. They were very impressive & long over do. Keep up the good work. As I said in the post that was deleted, The SCI camp will have to wait but it looks like it will be worth waiting for. |
Yeah, i'm definitely going to not buy some other long over due "box". Canned tunes from folks that actually drive fast trucks should do a better job.

:hehe: You Sir DO have a good point!! My Bad!! :( |
Will we be able to get fueling over 4500 or maybe even 5k rpms?
|
Can I assume you would have to have a dyno to tune a truck's properly?
|
Nope, for testing at first to see where power levels are, dyno's are great tools. I have tuned well over 1000 trucks remotely with great sucess. On a full built custom truck, then yes, dyno testing does help.
Wonderful thing is the data logging. Customer data logs their truck under testing condition and emails off the log file. I then watch what their truck is doing and can make adjustments. |
