Yes, that one. Electronic control/exhaust brake with the S363/68 turbo. I also purchased a turbo blanket.

I heard back from BD on the cruise control question for my 04.5. It should work fine with cruise. It also should work with other years. The manual has a cruise control test protocol for 2003-2004 and 2005-2007. The protocol specifically excluded 2004.5, because I suspect, the 04.5 was the only...

BD has some reviews on their website which are mostly positive and promising; however, some indicate issues with proper operation of the VGT nozzle ring under cruise control conditions. From what I gathered, and let me be clear this is my best guess, the system must have user throttle input...

2004.5, 4x4, ATS built 48RE, 194kmiles, BBI Stage 0.5 w/8-hole nozzles, Original owner. I have exhaust manifold leaks on Cyls 1 & 6 and decided to replace it. While doing so I also removed and inspected/disassembled my stock Holset HE351CW turbo. Turns out the exhaust manifold was not cracked...

Hey all, Haven't posted in a long time. I was going through some of my data and I thought I'd post some numbers for my compression test that I performed in 2019 (when I installed new injectors). This information is mainly for reference and includes a lot of parameters that I thought would be...

The Problem: As the subject states my 48RE, built by ATS approximately 87k miles ago, has developed an issue where is pulls the engine RPM way down and nearly stalls the engine. This only occurs when it’s been sitting for a while, ~12 hours or more, and the engine and transmission are cold or...

Thanks for your input cerb Injectors are remanufactured BBI stage 0.5. They are the 03-04 style (143 degree spray angle 8-hole) in a 04.5 application. Installed last month. When I tow it's usually hooked to about 10k periodically in the summer. Haven't towed with this setup yet. AH64ID, I...

I don't know if it's too late to post here but I had some weird issues with rail pressure. My Rail Pressure Sensors was actually physically damaged. The plastic body was displaced at a slight angle from the metal base. Replaced it and it corrected several issues including random no-start...

I've been using my Smarty Touch to data log some operating parameters. Of concern is my rail pressure at idle. Truck idles fine and runs good but has a slight knock, as in timing knock sound, at idle. Its minute but present. When I shift from park to drive the Actual Rail Pressure (red trace)...

A boost leak condition can be hard to identify if they are somewhat small. I found three leaks yesterday and I was able to fix all by re-aligning the boots on the charge air pipes. I'd characterize the boost leaks I had by the following: Squealing noise during moderate (10psi) to high-boost...

Jgillot, What filter mount, filter, & filter location you’re using before the CP3? I have new injectors on the way and would like to add better filtration before I install them. I too have the in-tank pump on my 04.5. I don’t have an additional $800 to drop on a FASS system yet. I do utilize...

I suppose I should have stated that I have a 2004.5 with an engine nameplate build date of February 11, 2004 noting also 325 HP & injector rate of 129mm^3. This is important because when I ordered fromBBI there were two options: 1.) MY2003 - 2004.5 2.) 2004.5+ You’ll note that both options...

Thank you all for your advice. Another question... I thought BBI stated for the same pulse-width injection signal the injection duration of the stage 0.5s will be less than stock injector. Am I correct? AH64ID - When you state the "...0.5s haze more on any tuning..." are you adjusting...

Hello, been a while since I've posted. Placed an order for the subject items and was wondering, for a stock truck with the new mods, what Smarty software people have been using while towing ~10k? Setup: Stock engine with 165k mi. Stock HE351 ATS built 48RE In-tank lift pump (replaced under...

Hello, need some help. I've been reading up on the P1652 code "short to ground on the J1850" which deals with the PCI Bus and I have a very specific question: If D25 (PCI BUS) is shorted to ground will the vehicle stop running? Otherwise if a "module" connected to PCI Bus (i.e. gauge cluster or...
