As promised here it is. Still have a lot of work to do in the tuning dept. though. it still trys to add/pull fuel at the same time between shifts as I didint know what I was doing in the engine torque file at the time. It also needs less timing down low to help light the charger, and by the looks of it I have room for more fuel.

In addition to finishing up a few things on my truck today, I also plug the resonator on 4 of my buddies Dmaxes, rerouted the PCV on two, installed a boost valve in one and did two exhausts. It was kind of our own little Dmax party.

well guys I spent a lot of time on the phone with guy today and got my Firmware updated. Thanks a million for doingf that guy, you gave up an hours worth of time to help me. And I couldnt of done it without you especially since my V2 was acting up and I didnt even have the right firmware file on my computer.

After rotating my tires again, changing my oil and removing the indoor stack to replace with the regular stack, i spent some time tuning and got a good start. I Retarded the timing down low some and was able to light the turbo a little quicker. I tried new things in the torque tables and it shifts much nicer now. I also slowly kept adding more fuel until rail pressure started to suffer and within 3 different tunes and about 20 minutes I was able to add enough fuel to gain 7psi bringing my boost to 47psi. It was dark out so i couldnt use smoke as a tuning aid but I will be tomorrow. Im in a very good modd right now since I can finally tune my truck again. I also got rid of the 18,100psi rail pressure at idle, still not sure what caused it but after a few tunes I was able to get it to tame back down to 5,000. I know there is still a lot of potential left but I was pretty satisfied with what I had accomplished tonite in short time. Its a lot quicker than it was this weekend, and even more fun to drive.

more later.
 
yes I cant replace it though. Thats from the deer damage, it shattered the plug. Ive been meaning to replace it since it happened a year ago. Small steps, you do have to give me credit through i did install my fuel door.
