Terrible mileage

[Powerstroke Man 6.4]

I had mine for a week. Had two tune revisions and still couldn't deal with it.

I'm on tune reversion #4 going from #3 to #4 was a huge change in driveability. Matt extended my shifts and the converter now locks at 55 at light throttle (locks earlier at 15% or more than that it locks it) also when T/H is on 6th gear is locked out.

And a bunch more fuel was added on the bottom end which helped out a lot.

Not calling you one by any means man. I just don't think that truck was even remotely close to being setup properly.

This was three years ago anyway. I have no idea who tuned it. Can't remember. The tuning was revised over and over. Even switched chargers. Even swap. No change. It was a tight rope act of smoke control or not spooling right.

As I said, mash the pedal and "it worked good". But when he needed to pull under power against something in a working capacity aka towing it was a huge **** fest. Driving around empty its pretty easy to drive around problems.

You have to remember around this time I was either driving my 2011 dmax that was a huge pile of fail. Shopwhore. Broke down ALOT. Or I was breaking in my 12 which turned out to be a great truck. So my focus wasnt great. I just remember thinking "you de-engineered a truck that towed like a beast".

You have a 6r?

 

[Six_Sloww]

5th is technically 6th

This makes you sound like an idiot. Tuning must've been trash on that truck.

A 366 will outrun stock chargers all day everyday.

yes. tuning is key. you can slap a single on and run a generic out of the box tuner and it'll be a pile of shyt. working with a tuning company is a must.

IDK all I know is once he gave me my 3 reversion my egts went down and my 4th went down even more also I noticed on my newest file injector clatter is louder.

For a while now. LOL but we found other issues with the truck as well. Data log's will help though getting it fine tuned.

Would it be possible for Matt to "copy" all the parameters from my SCT race file and I appy to his?

I'm sure if I asked him nicely and had the proper info I could figure something out like that.

I bet it would help out a ton,cut down the number of reversions and he can enjoy his truck a little more LOL.

We both have similar setups.

I'd be interested in this! But in a street, not race file. Just blew a trans, no more race file. Lol

I press my go pedal, hard, lots. Lol bad news

 

[Powerstroke Man 6.4]

I told Cody to tell you to hold on to that steering wheel going be all smiles... :tree:

Since we have very similar setup this will be a good base file to start. This file runs excellent in my truck.

I push the go pedal hard too but I know how to limit my self. LOL
