In the speedo tab of HPT I lowered all speed limiters to 45mph.

Speedo--->Speed limiter

I also set Rev limit off to 3000rpm on at 2999 rpm.

Engine--->fuel controll--->fuel cutoff--->cutoff rpm vs. gear normal.

I took it for a drive and it works great. Try going into boost and it shuts down, take it over 45 and it gently cuts off. Dropped the truck at the painters and now I can be assured nobody will be taking joy rides

 

Good thinking! I need to be setting up my truck like that before my wife drives it.

 

yeah, I had been thinking about this for a while, wish I could set it up with a key switch, hard-wired so to speak but that's well beyond my understanding.

 

Bill can't you just put a switch on dash for the Valet Mode and then wire it in to pcm?
I know EFILive will let you do that. So when drop truck off at Valet i turn that switch on and it Valet mode.

 

With the beta you can control throttle to pedal relation. You could make it feel no responsive and/or have the throttle only open half way at max pedal.

 

Yeah I had heard of that and I think it's possible to have something similar with HPT I just don't know how to rig it.

With HPT beta? there's an update out? details on this please?

 

Email support and ask them for the Beta. Once received they will put a link on your customer login page.

Beta has a few more tables for the older PCMs and a ton more for the newer ones, but it is still a beta which means it could have potentially more glitches than a full public release.

HPT warns heavily about messing with the ETC values, but I believe that EFIlive has had the options for a while and I haven't heard of any bad things happening.

With that said, you should still read up on the beta and check out the EFIlive forums to make sure I'm correct on what I said before you damage anything.

 

Why would messing with the ETC values be bad? Please explain what table you're referring to.

 

Yeah I have heard of a few pcm's being fried now after people were screwing with some settings under the Electronic Throttle tab in HPT. At this point I dont feel that the any of the changes under that tab are going to lead to any huge improvements in performance anyways but I was planning on doing some testing soon to find out.
