I found a dyno place that will buy the SCT package and tune my truck for me. So all they need is that base line file (the one that has the fix for the check engine light and limp mode) that they can get off of the SCT web site, right? Then they can go to town.

Here is the place: http://www.speedfreaksinc.com/

Do you know anything about them?
Mike

They will get it automatically when they buy the software. I am still waiting for someone else to confirm the fix!!! How much for the tune?

I'm going to drive my truck tomorrow. I loaded it on my handheld unit just now. I'll do a bunch of starts tomorrow at work.

I never had the issue before, I believe you mentioned this problem was fixed for the 99's.

Actually there was a rumor that the 99s were fixed, but it was never confirmed.Still waiting on confirmation for the rumor that I started ... lol.

Bad_banana · May 15, 2008

well I will let you know very soon!!

Mike, so far it looks like it IS fixed. Yesterday all those map parameters weren't even in the tables. It's up to the tuner to figure out what values are needed for their application.We wil see, but 29 starts with no CEL is a huge improvement, don't you think!

In your setup, do you have a fuel pressure regulator?

No. With larger primary injectors, there is no need... at least at my HP.

Did it work????? Still no CELs here, with my settings.

arrrghhhhhhhh......I am praying that my truck is done by next week. Motor is in it with headers on. He is taking a few personal days off from work wed/sat, his wife is having a baby, so he won't work on it again till monday, but he got a lot of work done already! Then I can let you know

My truck is eating belts. I got a major alignment issue on the S/C pullies, so I can't try it out yet. Plus I had my fuel pressure gauge blow up on me and spilled about 5 gallons of fuel. So now I gotta get that plugged off too before I can try.

This sucks!!

I went home for lunch and tried it. It started right up on the first start. I did 10 re-starts in a row, no issues yet. We will see. When I get my TB back, I'm going to send Sean some more datalogs to get this thing done.

Remember, all we need is key_on cycles. Good luck.

great news!!!!

Boomin5POINT9 · May 16, 2008

Yeah, but i can't tell if its in limp mode unless i start it. Ive never had the limp mode thing happen to me before today (Finally got the belt thing "fixed") Anyways... first start and short drive it ran fine. Then I restarted it and it would barely run and was blowing black smoke!!! Scared the shit out of me!! I was like "WTF!?! NOW WHAT!???" Cleared the code and it ran fine again. lol

Keep in mind I havn't loaded the new values onto the handheld, so I havn't tried the fix yet. I will try that tomorrow.

Limp mode sucks balls though!!!

meangreen · May 16, 2008

Dude, now you know why I was ready to ditch SCT....lol. Imagine trying to tune with that limp-mode bullshit....every other start.

I ran my truck some more yesterday and today. So far soo good. I also got the felpro air hat gasket. That thing is great. No leaks yet and I have been driving the truck hard. I did notice 1 thing. Just having the air hat seal up, This damn thing hawls ass. I was able to burn the tires at 35 mph. I don't mean just a little spin, I mean SPINNNNNNNNNNNNNNN. I had a big as smile on my face all the way home. Now to get Sean some more datalogs.

Awesome dude. I need to do some of the same. I got a new airhat and discharge from blak92dak that looks alot better than my current junk, so I just need to find a tighter belt!

How hard was it to get on your belt.... did you have to use spacers or anything special to get it tight? How much boost are you seeing?

OMFG .... I think that SCT finally did it...
