Crazy, I know.
First post here. I do electrical diagnostics for a living and LS swaps after hours. I own a HPT setup to aid in LS swaps, although I don?t go too far into ?tuning?.
Daily driver is an 11 f150 3.5.
I?m hoping to do some good data logging and tweak some stuff for the big end, but some googling got me to wonder if you?d be able to tune in some wastegate actuation at low Throttle position, to reduce stoplight/traffic boost, and consequently reduce fuel consumption.
I found some mail order tunes advertising such, but I?m not sure if this is actually possible or just snake oil. https://5startuning.com/f150-eco-boost-3-5l-v6-economy/
All other turbo vehicles had enough lag to stay out of boost easy, but these damn turbos light immediately. Forgive me if I?m being ass-backwards here, but I like technology and it?s fun to make things do what they?re not intended to do.
This ECM is a lot more intimidating than 5.3, and honestly I don?t know where to start.
Any help would be appreciated, and thanks for you time and humoring me.
Cheers
