yea your right everyone runs efi. so is there more then 2 of us?
More than that...there is probably about 12 of us around here that does diesel stuff and post about it.....I've tuned two LBZs thus far.
ya ive done 2 lb7's both run very good and got a buddy with an lbz lookin to get hp tuners
Hi guys, I guess I'm the new guy here. I bought the HP tuner almost 3 years ago but haven't really used it for much more than turning off a few emissions codes and speedo calibrations on a gas truck. I'm here to learn and help if I can so I hope you guys will not mind a few stupid questions now and again. I just got the 2005 LLY 2 weeks ago so even the diesel thing is new to me.
well roy with the right guidence and a little bit of your time you will be able to have a whol lot of fun with that truck :D
i also have hp tuner with a 02 duramax jus got it today tho i usually tunes everything with efi live. Although they do tha same thing this hp tuning is very different to me so kinda lookin to learn more about it but other than that ive done just about everything else you can do with duramaxes if yall have any other qeustions i own a diesel performance shop in laffayette louisiana
Hi Guys. I play with diesels, its addicting how much power a stock one can make. Have done lbz's, couple lly, and have one lb7 on the go. tweaking allison and getting them to pull rpms seems to be my biggest hurdles. Have access to all wheel drive dyno, and have had time to play. Made some big power with lbz. Have very respectable tune in lly. Think i am pushing tranny luck, but with no failure/data to compare, i keep going. Anyone else struggle with config files? seems you get it working with one, does not work with next?
Where do I start? I've been doing a lot of reading the last couple of weeks but still unsure about everything. I think I'd like to get a tune from someone so that I could compare to the stock tune. I'm thinking that if I could see where changes are being made, it would help me understand what needs to be tweaked for better tunes.
Looking forward to this.
:hi: New guy here, Just received tuner in the mail Friday and have not tuned with software before. From what I have read pulse width and timing are good places to start ? Anyone willing to point us newbies in the right direction?
if you talk to bill or chris they can point you to a few tutorials on tuning and where to start and as far as the compairing tunes go i would be glad to email you one of my lb7 tunes just to give you an idea just send me a pm with your email i can never get my tunes to load on here as an attachment :doh:
i was with a efi live guy last night who was just astonished at how much easier hp was to use then efi i think this may finally start catching on with the duramax guys rather then efi jimo i love hp tuners i think its easy enuff to use my grandma could tune with it :D
Hey guys. I just read my first LBZ tune yesterday. I have been playing with HPtuners for a few years now and have the Tuning School software. The diesel stuff is totally greek to me though. I'll be looking for a few tutorials as well just to see where to start. The truck is a bone stock 3500 4wd.
I have tuned my GTO and various other vehicles over the past few years....I have been wanting to tune my LLY Duramax, just havent gotten the nerve yet..LOL
Yea, I bought my HP Tuner 2-3 years ago and just used it today on my dads
07 3500 HD. I would love to see some info on where to start with fuel milage
and HP.
Thank You,
Bo Hunter
