True, lets review the contestants:
Me - my truck is just plain retarded....
Scott - His truck is held together with duct tape and zip ties
Brendan - truck has a mind of its own when it comes to his nitrous....
Eric - last time out hitting the rev limiter or short shifting....


J/k guys, should be a fun day, but my money is Eric winning, then scott, then me, and I don't think brendan will even make it past Tech


Sounds like a plan

 

Haha, IDK about any bets with anyone else. You guys have the same mods as me + being single cabs = I'll be lucky to keep up on the big side of the track. We'll see though.

Any my trucks been running weird lately.

Sometimes it'll run real strong, then others it will fall flat on its face. I really need to buy EFILive so I can log this thing and see whats going on. To me it feels like the engine completely looses compression, but I know its not because it still pulls decent below 4k rpms and it goes away and runs much better later on or next day.

Me and brendan checked the fuel pressure with a gauge and its between 48-60 psi depending on engine load. But it could be an on and off problem. UGH!

 

Hmmm your fuel pressure should not dip that low IMO... Your on and off power problem might be fuel related or it might be pulling spark cause of IAT(if hot it pulls alot of timing), ECT (your efan switch is not the best at keeping a consistant temp), your fueling may be affect because of the same reasons (richening up or leaning out) all that is in the tune.. The fuel pressure thing is mechanical...

 

It primed to like 55psi key to run, truck off, then started it was around 50-52 psi, then at WOT it went to 60 psi, and letting off and coasting it went to like 48-50ish again. I didn't seem to dip down any while going WOT at 6.0

Also, it was pretty cool the night we tested it (50s or so). I also rewired my E-fans and they blow alot harder now, so it should be keeping my temps pretty low now and moves plenty of air through the engine bay. And I believe I fixed my exhaust leaks now, but my valvetrain is still so noisey that it sounds like ****. I think I need to move up to 10w30 oil to keep those lifters from being so noisey

 

Ok that sounds good for your fuel pressure from what I have read and seen... Nevermind about the fueling thing i mentioned, i just looked at your tune and there is no worries there... Your spark IAT table starts pulling timing at 80*.... Your ECT timing table starts pulling timing at 198*.. So depending on the IAT and ECT you might be pulling a decent amount of timing...

 

I hope it doesn't give me any problems on saturday.

 

roflmao.....poor brenda, I hope he beats us all. I like to see an underdog win.

 

lol, we'll see. I doubt it though.

 

ok corey, weather is going to be nice temp wise, but how is the 91% humidity going to play a role in how our trucks run?

 

The added humidity is not going to doing us any favors ....
