And what kind of power are you making with that setup now?? Or is that the 540 setup?

 

Whats it doing that it doesnt seem to like the power

 

I do my own tuning and learned my own trans logic

 

540/540 was a 5.3 with procharger

New build hasnt fired yet

 

Some days it runs great other days it feels like it's slipping. Some days it will go then feels like it revs up and shifts but when it gets back in it its still in that same gear then goes again till its normal shift point. When it goes good it was spinning my stock tires in second then a little in 3rd but then other times it just spins a little then acts up. When it shifts good it feels great. When it acts up it shifts slow then. To me I don't see that being a tune issue or it would do it all the time. But I'm not an expert on how these 6 speeds need to be tuned so I came to you guys! And wow what kind of boost was the 5.3 running? And I'll be watching for the numbers on that turbo ls3!

 

The inconsistency is going to be hard to pinpoint, could be a combination of tune and trans itself.... Could also be a valve solenoid or something in valve body does it maje a differemce whether in d or m??

 

I usually do it in manual mode trying not to do full throttle down shifts from ripping on it in drive. Trying to prolong the trans haha

 

The 6L80etuning website is a joke, all the guy wants to do it have you send him money to "tune" the transmission.

I went on there to just see what infomation he had or the website had to offer and I learned pretty much nothing. It's just full of guys that don't understand the transmission and try crap untill it works. I've learned more about them through reading hp tuners forum and doing my own stuff on the road.

 

Blower was over spun and saw max of 12 psi but dropped to 10 psi by shift point...was a little p1sc


Problem is if the trans was tuned incorrectly and beat on...then the damage is already done

My truck has no tq management, i can make trans do whatever i want....i can have it breaking tires loose on the 2-3 shift or can control all shifts so my daughter doesnt wake up on shifts

Small adjustments make huge improvements with this trans

The turbo ls3 will be limited for now do to fuel pump but will eventually do dual pumps over summer

 

Haha ya I kinda had a feeling that 6l80 site was a joke but wasn't sure! And wow those were some good numbers for that. I'm at 11psi through a Maggie. I'm thinking about selling it and going to a procharger... And will you go to a return fuel system on the ls3 build? I'm in the same boat my fuel pump is maxed out dropping pressure a hair on long wot runs and that's maxing out the injectors. So I was looking at doing a Walbro 450 and 80lb injectors and keeping the return less system but not set on it yet
