Custom Tune

Post by sjp649 »

What does it take to get a custom tune made. Do I need to call any one special?
Thanks

Well, it's either I try a custom tune, or I'm going to get a different programmer. I tired of getting 13mpg

I think he is asking what you are trying to achieve: better mileage; more torque for tow; more HP for aggresive performance; et al.

Even giving them the info for your particular application, don't hold your breath. I'd hate to see you turning purple!!!

I just want better mileage, I don't really care about the power, and I don't want all the turbo surge I'm getting while pulling my camper. 13mpg is the best I can get with the programmer on. I have tried all the settings, and this is the best it does.

sip649 what are you running for an exhaust? I was getting the same thing then i went with a 3.5" turbo back exhaust no muffler and i went up to 15mpg. Just a suggestion

9 times out of 10 it's because the filters need to be changed. As well as the wonderful ultra-low sulfur diesel at the pumps now doesn't help with mileage either... What version do you have? It at the top right when you plug in the predator...
