Thread: Scanlog of a 5.3l

    Scanlog of a 5.3l

    Does anyone have a scanner log of a 5.3l with throttle position going 70MPH?

    I am curious to see some what your throttle position is.

    Thanks!

    That info would be entirely useless unless you are tuning the exact same vehicle again....throttle position at 70mph is entirely dependant upon temp, weight, road slope, etc.....

    if you have a higher numerical gear the drive shaft will have to turn more times for the same amount of tire rotation, resulting in a higher engine rpm. you would more than likely know if it had gears in it

    where did you say that?

    your throttle position will be different than everyone elses unless they have the exact same set up, as well as the same conditions including density altitude
