Very good results for sure! KM

Wasn't someone on this forum looking for turbine shaft speed ? 253000 and 317000 inferred are spinning! Interesting software package with the HP tuner, any comparison/preference compared to SCT's LiveLink? KM

That would be the inferred shaft speed of the stock turbos at that output level. His stage 4's aren't seeing anywhere close to that speed.

Well I was kinda wondering that but I think someone else was.
Man I’d say that hp tuners software is way better. In SCT you can only log 40 pids at once in a datalog configuration. And if you have 40 pids running, sometimes other pids get laggy in their readings.
HP tuners can log an infinite number I think? I mean we are logging probably 70 different things right now. HP Tuners is just more capable I think and more detailed.

Yeah I bet we are actually spinning these turbos at 200,000 or so, not 317,000 lol
 
Yes I caught the 250000 demanded and 317000 inferred and am quite familiar with how many RPM a turbine can spin. Just seems the topic came up in a recent post. The software looks interesting also. KM

I recommend HP Tuners to anyone honestly. It’s a really nice system, much simpler and easy to use than SCT. Plus you can do more with it than SCT. But… there’s upsides and downsides to both.

Also, Gen 3 guys, @snakebitten and whoever else, I am now getting a message saying active air dam fault when I’m driving down the road. It’s not showing a CEL but it shows that message and I hit “ok” on my steering wheel and it goes away.
 
Probably similar to the code I get everyday regarding my missing intercooler louvers.
The PCM is simply reporting that the actuator sensor is not responding with expected values.

On mine, I obviously know why.
On yours, you'd have to do some troubleshooting to determine why the PCM thinks the Active Air Dam isn't positioned where it should be. Pretty sure it's reading travel from one or both actuators.
 
Blown F150 installed a turbine speed gauge to try and figure out how fast his were spinning and how far they could push things.

They were not trying to go above 180k rpm.
 
How is my next truck doing........Lol

How is the truck responding to the tuning options

There needs to be a way to enable disable the air dam codes because Raptors/Tremors have no air dam. KM

Doing great haha, I will be testing out Adam’s tune 0-60 and 1/4 mile hopefully tomorrow. Gotta charge up the dragy.

I’m not sure. They’re getting redesigned right now due to some figment issues.

It would be nice. No there’s not. I wonder if there’s a shaft speed PID though…
Please keep us informed for the progress on the downpipes. I'm very interested in a set myself. What is the retail price on them?

I wonder if emptying the kitties on the stock setup would be a significant gain (for offload applications) I understand that this my create a CEL without O2 defoulers.

I'm also very interested in your build. I plan to max out my stock turbos with E-50 until I get to 60-80k miles when I will to build a forged motor and upgrade my turbos. I'm sitting at 32k now on my 2023.

Thanks for stopping by! I will keep this thread updated with the build. I think the downpipes on these 2021+ trucks are really restrictive compared to the older 3.5s. I believe we will pick up a fair amount of power. I do not know what the price will be yet. I’ll post more when I hear more.

hey that’s cool! I want to build a forged motor as well. That’ll be later down the road though. Sounds like you have an awesome plan though.

Here’s a 1/4 mile time from today! This is on ZFG tune. I still didn’t get the launch right, but it wasn’t too bad! Faster than my 2.7 was up here, and the truck is heavier than my 2.7 was.

Nice, on 91 octane too,,,,,, how did the logs look?
 
The log got messed up because my computer screen closed mid run
Ya gotta turn that laptop either 90* or facing the front so the G-forces don't slam the screen shut! 😎
