You know, I don't think there's an answer for that one, honestly. I've seen guys that'll run no higher than the equivalent of a hypertech on level 3 - then there's the extreme running tunes that put them into 13's with a TRANSGO JR and a converter... I know of one person that dyno'd over 500...

After re-reading, I think you may be asking how to get the stock tune out of your truck?? DUH! I'm NOT thinking today, I've had awhole day of welding fence panels in the sun and it shows ;) OK, first, plug in EFILive - Start the efilive "TUNE tool". Input your registration information (if...

I know that truck from Dieselplace!!!! Efilive can be intimidating at first; we were ALL where you are at right now! Ok, what Nick's going to do more than likely is get your stock tune, and apply a script to it - A script is basically a text file that is a checklist of changes to be made to...

Take off the 500lbs of lights on your front end and it might go back up 2 or 3 inches ;)

Good suggestion, they're most likely going to tell you the EGT probe is toast... it happens often with some people's, I've heard of people getting edge to just send them another one.

I'm not a LLY but I can tell you with my LBZ I went from 14.8 - 15.3 up above the 18 mpg mark... Needless to say I was shocked, I thought this truck was doomed for 15's the rest of it's life... A little bit of timing, and cut the boost at cruising speeds and it's amazing what happens!

The clip for the cooler hose or the valve body? Either way - good tip!! If it's the cooler one you're talking about (which I think it is) it would have been nice to be able to do it your way...staying directly underneath that line when it was trying to leak on me was not fun :icon_bs: Thanks...

I have to be honest - there was a moment (or two) I took a step back and thought "What the HECK am I doing? If I break this it's ALL over for me...." The moment I put it in gear and it didn't explode I was happy; the moment it shifted through gears I was extatic!

Third Part: Installation is the exact same as taking it apart... I didn't have the truck on a jack, so I couldn't really get in there that well. I called my wife and had her come give me a hand in the garage. I put a rubber glove on my floor jack, set the valve body CAREFULLY on it and...

Second Part: Ok, there's a sliding PIN on the upper side of the valve body that you can not yet see. It fits into a slot in the METAL portion of the selector gear you can see in the below picture. It is important to be careful taking it out, and also be careful to put it BACK in the slot that's...

Ok, Well i decided to do the trans-go Jr. install with the hoot flush method after... I unfortunately had no lift, and decided I had other uses for my floor jack (thank goodness I had it available!). There's no special tools or anything needed for this... To be honest I think I only used...

if it is, we'll be BOTH getting it fixed. ROFL I don't know if it's the VVT - it's always spooling and whirring, this is a lower sound, like a 'whine'.

I was just going to ask about the filter and it not maintaining pressure.

I've heard it before, rather than the zippy turbo spool sound it sounds like a more controlled, rpm based 'climb' right? I've always wondered if it was part of the fan (even though it's free spinning when not locked) drawing just enough air to make the whine noise.

Seriously think about it - We can log EVERYTHING (and more) that they can with their PID's and with a reputable tuner your 'old' truck will REALLY impress you - it's like driving a new truck. Then of course, you can take it apart and play with the tune as you see fit :mad2: I've made a...
