Getting ready to go on a long trip for vac. Will be towing 2 Jetskis. What SW setting is giving you guys the best mpg on the smarty? Also does anyone know when the new Smarty software for towing will be out?
Bob, I cannot find the towing software you are talking about. Is there another site I don't know about? I downloaded the moderate tq man program and on SW 5 the smoke is not as bad. It will slip my clutch a little though.
Thanks for the reply. The smarty is very impressive. The only problem I have with it is the excessive smoke. It is bad even on SW 1. I tried it on my buddys 06 with a factory exhaust and is alot better. Does the cat have something to do with it?
If you do a search of here you will find instructions on how to do it. It is very easy. Takes me about 15min on a rack. The only thing you gain is about a 1/2 mpg.
Just order a Smarty for my 04. 5 truck. Truck is stock except for straight pipe and AFE intake. I also did the tone ring mod.
My questions
Will it be OK to run the smarty settings with added timing with the tone ring mod?
I am getting ready to go on a long trip. What setting is getting...
When I bought my truck it had a Autometer egt and boost gauge set in it. The boost gauge has always been about 7-8 psi off. Not a big deal I rarely ever look at it. But know my EGT gauge is sticking most of the time I have to tap on it to get it to read correctly. Is there anything I can do...
I like to see under 100ml in 1 min idling on injector return on a normal running truck. Mine is about 80ml. If the tube leaks between the injector it will run back into the injector return and you will have a high return like 200ml. When the injector leaks out around the o rings that is when you...
Thats what I thought. The DRB and the factory electronics is correct. The DRB will show boost before the gauge will. Is there anyway to calibrate the gauge.
What is the stock max boost on a 04. 5 600? My gauge say about 25psi before the wastegate brings it down to about 20psi. With the DRB it says about 45 psi if you subtract bar you get about 30psi. What is right?
Take it out and tow a large trailer with and run the crap out of it. That will most likely get rid of the miss. I have been seeing more of this at the dealer I work at. The injectors get carboned up and start missing at idle. Seen one yestrerday. Another tech was working on it. It had 30000...
