Tuning instructions for the REVOlution TNT software

We provide you a whole new tuning concept with a hand held performance tuner.

For the first time the Cummins engine performance tuning software can now be customized by the customer.

The REVOlution starts here!

How does it work?

If you prefer Smarty's default software configuration, simply skip the “Adjust Options” menu and choose the CaTCHER level you

prefer. If you want to change the default setting of any (or all…) of the customizable items, you can enter the “ Adjust Options”

menu , navigate with the “ > “ and “ < “ keys to the item you want to customize and enter your choice. Done! Smarty will do the

rest. Once the end of the item list is reached, Smarty will store your selections in its memory. In this way, your preferred selections

will be applied every time you program your truck. As a simple example, if you set the Speed-limiter to “100”, Smarty will always use

that value for all ECM updates, until you change the value again or return the truck back to stock. When you enter the “ECM

update“ menu you will find the chapter: “Adjust Options“. Once entered, this menu allows you to choose among following items and

levels of customization.

Foreword:

The REVO TNT software has been written for trucks with extensive modifications. The horsepower levels start around 100 Hp on

CaTCHER # 1 and reach 230 additional Hp on CaTCHER # 9. These HP gains are referred to a “close to stock” engine but

depending on your modifications can be more. With correctly modified and tuned engines we have seen gains in the 400+ Hp range

above the stock software. On the higher settings a stock engine can NOT take full advantage of it because the fuel and air supply

from the stock parts are simply not enough . Aftermaket, turbo, injectors, lift pump, injection pump, automatic transmission AT LEAST

are required! Also a good insurance against valve float at high boost levels is a good set of stiffer valve springs. If you need valve

springs or not depends upon several factors like max boost pressure reached, rev range and of course the mileage of the stock

springs.

Speed-limiter:

From 25 to 250 mph in one mile increments

Torque Management:

# 0 - Default

# 1 - Stock

# 2 - Mild

# 3 - Moderate

# 4 - Wild ( aftermarket clutch / AT Transmission recommended )

Then higher the # you choose then less torque management remains and then more aggressive the throttle response becomes.

Shift defuel:

# 0 - Stock (On)

# 1 - Off

Often called erroneously “ torque management”, this function disables the stock software engine power de rate during

automatic transmission shifts or boosted launch. Please note that the shift light indicator on the dash will also become disabled.

ATTENTION! The use of this feature is potentially DANGEROUS even for the best build aftermaket transmission!!!

Do not even THINK to use it with a stock transmission or a simple valve body! Full billet is a must here!

Injection Timing:

# 0 - Default

# 1 - Stock

# 2 - for aftermarket injectors

# 3 - for Hugh aftermarket Injectors ( less timing advance than # 2 )

# 4 - for use with NOs ( less timing advance than level # 3 )

The odd numbered SW's ( 1,3,5,7 & 9 ) use the advanced timing and the even numbered SW's ( 2,4,6 & 8 ) use the stock timing.

This is only true if you do not adjust the options! With the Revo you can choose ANY timing you want, no matter if the Catcher you'll

download is odd or even! You CAN, add timing to the software's that have none, or use the stock timing in the odd # ones. Your

pleasure... . By definition for all adjustable options the default is # 2. EXCEPT for the timing. The timing has two defaults. # 1 for the

even numbered SW's ( stock timing ) # 2 for the odd numbered SW ( advanced timing ). To avoid confusion and to help the customer

in returning all levels to default ( if need be ), key # 0 is used to return Smarty back to the default levels. This is most important for

the timing. When Smarty is set back to default with key # 0, the even numbered software's will use the stock timing and the odd

numbered ones the advanced timing.

The injection timing is critical for the engine responsiveness and overall performance. The difference between one timing level and

the next one can be as much as 85Hp! Which is the right one? That depends upon the mods done to the engine... . The only valid

way to find out is a dyno. Boost pressure readings “per se” just don't do the trick. A more advanced timing will typically produce

less boost than a more retarded one but that does not mean that the more advanced timing provides less power.

Rail pressure:

# 0 - Default

# 1 - Stock

# 2 - Mild

# 3 - Moderate

# 4 - Wild*

* In order to avoid damage to the injection system, do not use for prolonged time.

Wastegate: ( for the 2004. 5 and up trucks with the electronic wastegate only )

# 0 - Stock (On)

# 1 - Off ( for aftermarket turbo )

What is the difference between this and the revo??

What is the difference between this and the revo??

The TNT tune is an addition 60+ h. p. over the regular Revo. The TNT tunes (the regular TNT as well as the TNT / R by request only) are geared for highly modified trucks only. Notice the timing options reflect this as well... choices are aftermarket injectors, huge aftermarket, or even less timing for drugs.

In other words, user discretion advised! Probably don't even think about using this until you have the correct supporting mods and are willing to accept whatever consequences may happen. Each truck behaves somewhat differently (hence the plethora of tuning choices), and when subjected to 2x or more the OEM power levels, carnage is much more likely to happen... granted, with the right supporting mods the likelihood for something to go wrong is less, but, you never know...

By supporting mods, it's not simple things like air filter, bigger exhaust, intake horn, lift pump, a 62 turbo, couple gauges, etc. It's more like injectors, cam springs, cam, stage 3 cp3 or duals, full billet transmission or double disc clutch, twins, etc.

Did you see my sig??
 
Yeah, I wasn't implying you weren't ready for TNT tune, as you're obviously more ready than I! I was just trying to answer what you had asked...



--Eric



I was just messing with ya man... . Just throw you a set of springs on your rig, and add another cp3 and your set.....

:D Yeah, I have an extra cp3 sitting around waiting to go on. I planned on doing an evil twin dual cp3 kit, MPI 62 over s480 twins, flux 2's, springs and cam, but I'm having second thoughts with fuel prices on the rise.

You had your '03 on the dyno? I'd be interested to see what it makes with the TNT...

--Eric
 
so am i understanding this correctly... In order to have use either the TNT or TNT/R one has to have extensive mods or is the regular TNT "safe" for relatively stock engines?
 
no. the Revolution is the new standard software for Smarty.



You can choose to run the default softwares or custom tune the other parameters.



Its an Industry first for the Cummins.



Thanks
 
Was that a response to me? Also can you get the 230 HP without the the TNT/R or do you have to have the supporting mods for the 230 program?
 
Thanks Bob I cant wait!! Maybe this will answer all the questions about the revo and people saying how dissapointed they were in it. THERE is a revo TNT. !



Thanks
