Oh it did. Playing with the software today I'm even more excited.
Yeah... You can see why REAL quick too. The timing is far more that what I expected. I'm glad I built this thing to handle some abuse. :evil

So how would you go about tuning a truck if it wasn't close to you...? :doh:

Using the data logger. Most EFI tuning is done via remote. Guys like Rob in Idaho tune trucks all over the nation just by the logs that get emailed to them. The control is going to be unreal. I can't wait to adjust fuel according to MAP. A single charger at altitiude will be driveable! Not that we don't already. LOL

A large single charger? :woohoo: I am getting pretty amped up to see the real world drivability benefits and power benefits with EFI! Dumb question, but are you running a decent sized single up here as well?

Just a little 66/74/14 since I still tow and DD it. I can't decided if I want to hang a GT55 under it, or just spray it. With some head work and a cam she spools pretty quick, it's just annoyingly smokey when it gets hot in the summer. These new injectors smoke worse than my old 180s. Ugh.

A little 66 huh...? LOL With that Garrett under there, you'd have a pretty bad combo man! I understand about the smoke and sometimes it just gets annoying. You go with some 200+ sticks?
EFI sould make things a whole lot better bud and I cant wait to see how you get your truck dialed in!

To all the guys who have a video camera - as soon as you get your trucks tuned make a vid I'd love to see the difference you guys are getting as far as smoke and driveability goes (especially the high horsepower trucks)

Thanks for the info:Cheer:. The less injection events per cycle the easier on the injectors right? Post was just for emissions correct?
In what conditions are pilot gone? I do NOT at all expect you to give away all of your knowledge gained from your personal testing, but if you care to share that would be cool.
I think I remember you saying the engine wasnt happy with pilot gone when it was cold. Im curious what you consider cold? Ambient temp. wise. Like cold= engine hasnt been run in 12 hrs in 70* ambient temps. or like cold= engine hasnt been run in 12 hrs in 20* ambient temps. or like cold= engine not at operating temp with 70*+ ambient temps.
Again, if you dont want to share I understand.

Just loaded a no pilot file in melissa's o6. I added about 5 degrees timing at idle and less than 30mm3 to get it to idle correctly. it runs fine as long as you go slowly up through the rpms, but if you blip the throttle it misses and puffs white smoke at first. Timing is going to be hard to get right if you are running a single event .

Sweet! Thanks for the info man:Cheer:.
I wonder why a CR cant start smooth without pilot, but a good ole mechanical 12-valve can start cold in 20* weather and run fairly smooth after a few (10-15) seconds...hmm.. Then a CR with pilot starts a lot quicker and easier than a 12-valve cold. I dont mean to derail this thread, just thinking out loud (trying to get the stupid out of my head if you willLOL).
At any rate im hoping to get into a 06+ CR by the end of this summer or fall. Just trying to learn, thanks again
