    AirDog 100 Lift Pump Help

    I just replaced my entire fuel system from the tank sender outlet to the IP for under $300 by shopping around. The FASS isn't as much overkill as the Raptor 100. Ever since I started tuning it more aggressively last year, the '93 style lift pump would zero out all the time. I retained the...

    Setting TDCO without buying software

    Correct, it's for tuning for the most part but this piece is just building commands that can be sent to the truck for diagnostics purposes. Kind of like using a GM tool such as a TECHI, but it's on your laptop with a USB or Serial cable connected to the truck. I'll get more details up on how...

    Setting TDCO without buying software

    Time to let the cat out of the bag! I've been working on this for awhile and finally got a prototype working. My end goal is to develop as many of the mode $04 factory diagnostic commands out in TunerPro-RT (freeware). Ever since I had to buy the software when replacing my IP last year, I...

    B&M Shift Enhancer

    Level 1 works fine but 2 is too much line pressure for longevity of the trans. Best to do the tweaks in the tune instead of with the B&M because you aren't just jacking uo the pressure "all the time"

    Obd1 6 position chip?

    Same here, I switch between 8 and soldered the switcher up myself. You can get all the hardware from Moates and it's not perfect but it works. The MPC isn't the only option to switch tunes, it's just the only one that is specific to the 6.5. You can fit a Moates GX 28 pin adapter in the PCM...

    Safe to run a tune without studs?

    It really is a gamble. I have my 12cm^2 set at 15PSI and I've been warned so I'm weary of WOT pulls with Buddy's fuel curve. It really depends on how much fuel you are getting on the OBD2 tune.

    Number 9 resistor vs number 5

    Have any data to back this one up? The tunes actually show the value is only respected under 1800 RPM which is why I ask. Granted it's still no performance gain, I just don't know where the WOT statement comes from

    To egr delete or to not delete?

    Swapping to the non-EGR intakes is something I always recommend. The EGR intakes are a huge restriction even when you block them with a freeze plug I have 2 stock PROM chips if you want a stock tune that gets rid of EGR codes.

    Banks sidewinder exhaust manifold group buy.

    What's your thinking behind this? There are much more serious engines on earth that only vac from one valve cover. Unless you are just running a breather tank.

    Anyone try to burn this prom chip before?

    Good thing I didn't give up easily Its just a plcc32 to 28 pin stacked adapter. Same concept as current aftermarket chips and actually way ahead of its time for being produced in 94.

    '94 C1500 Build "Just Because"

    No worries, that's what these threads are for after-all. The stock Holset actuator is 20PSI. I swapped on a 1 Bar actuator from my old 300zx parts pile (that's roughly 14.5 psi) for now. Once I get my hands on a 10 psi pot, that'll be what I use. You need maintain some spring resistance to...

    '94 C1500 Build "Just Because"

    The 12cm is a good start for me and it's easy to change later. I got an awesome deal on this turbo and it's not Chinese so that's a plus for me. Yes, the boost control only lets you adjust up from whatever spring the actuator has in it. Water wetter is the only additive I believe in other...

    '94 C1500 Build "Just Because"

    I started this over on DP, but figured I would dabble on TTS too :p My build is "Just Because" ... well, because none of it is necessary, but i'm sure I'll have a blast Here is the checklist: Genuine New Holset WH1C - 12cm turbine Custom wastegate actuator. In-Cab adjustable PTWiring...

    Anyone try to burn this prom chip before?

    The interchangeable part of the chip is free (it's on every CPU motherboard I have laying around) and these units plentiful since their base tune wasn't that great and most people swap them out. Thus my desire to flash it. I figured i'm going in solo but wanted to fish and see what I get...

    Anyone try to burn this prom chip before?

    It's aftermarket for a 94 and 95. Guess you could use it in a 93 to only write the trans calibration to also. The manufacturer is hyper****

    Anyone try to burn this prom chip before?

    I have a couple of these <unnamed> 6.5 prom chips sitting here. Have any of the gurus tried to write tunes to these or is the binary addressing changed that it wouldn't work? I was figuring they just made them this way to use a cheaper setup for mass production but am not sure. The removable...

    new engine for the old girl

    The heads all crack between the valves and doesn't necessarily mean they are bad. I have a good set of STD 97 pistons if you need them. Just pulled them from a motor I got that seized a rod.

    What brand are Leroy's vacuum pumps and what is a TBB for $30?

    You can rent the puller at advance or autozone for "free". I just did it last week and it's the power steering pulley remover for GM. Works on the power steering and vac pump. With their tool rental, you pay full price for the tool, then get it back ~5 days when the return clears your credit card.

    68 C10 Chevy 6.5T

    What bolts did you use on the crossover? I'm tired of my donut gaskets blowing out and need to ditch the studs.
