    Timing Calculator

    I'm baffled I have a 06 5.9. That I am trying to use the calculator. That BAMOFO wrote. The directions are simple basically copy and paste your values into chart. Done that several times and no success. I read somewhere that the calculator wont work on the 06-07. The description says it will. I will attach my tune. Could someone please try to use the calculator with my tune. And let me know if it works. Or what I maybe doing wrong. Thanks

    The timing calculator works fine for 06-07 trucks, I tune them all the time. If you have too much fuel before the turbo spools, you're gonna have a bad time, unless you love soot, then you're doing great lol
    The piston design on the newer 5.9's doesnt behave like the older trucks.

    Yes I read your other response. I am trying to dial in the timing. When I put my values in the calculator in never gives me any results. I'm coping the info on my tune into the calculator. I noticed the desired rail pressure is in psi on the calculator. In my tune its in mpa. Just cant understand what I'm doing wrong. For the calculator not to work. I've read the threads on how to use the calculator. Going threw every step. I am a little confused on what to do with the table for btdc percentages. There is no table like that in my tune. I want to run it at 50/50 for right now. So if figured I didn't have to enter anything. If I could get the calculator to work would be able to get timing rite. Thanks for your Help. I greatly !! appreciate it I no time is valuable.
