Hey everyone. I’m still alive and doing great. After 17 years at the show it was time to move on. I’m working with some friends at Boost Addicts in middle Tn building engines and doing performance work. I do not plan on doing a YT Channel or being in front of a camera. Unless something big comes along. With family being priority, I am digging the slower pace of life. No more long drives to work and no more corporate BS. I greatly appreciate all of you long time fans and if you see me out come say hello. LT is doing a great job with this channel and he is the real deal. Keep up the great work LT.

That's a sweet O2 wrench you've got there, LT! I have quite a few different types myself, but there has been many a time that I could have used that one! Sometimes we can't know everything, and we need help. You being humble and admitting that, I have a lot of respect for. It's how we learn and grow. Like the old saying, "Every day's a school day!" Truck sounds great! Can almost feel the pull myself! Looking forward to the shootout with Ugly Truck!

An exhaust pressure wave creates a drone when the engine's sound matches the exhaust note. This pressure wave results in vibration throughout the vehicle that creates the exhaust drone. You can do several different things (shy of changing the muffler) to reduce or eliminate drone. First, as you are planning, extend the exhaust pipe by 3 to 4 feet should help. Lengthening the pipes will change the frequency of the sound. You can also change the diameter of your exhaust pipes since this will greatly change the frequency of the vibration (just like a pipe organ). You might try various after-the-muffler tailpipe diameters. You might try 4”, then 3.5” and even 3” since each of these will support enough exhaust flow for your current HP levels. If those do not help, look into something called a Helmholtz Resonator (these are not the same as “regular” resonators). Helmholtz Resonators work by being open to the exhaust before the muffler, 1/4 of the length as long as one of the resonant sound waves. The sound wave is then reflected back into the exhaust at 1/2 wavelength, perfectly out of sync with the wavelength that's coming after it, thereby canceling it out. This is essentially the same principle as noise-canceling headphones. The length of these pipes determines what frequency they will cancel out. These resonators have proven to work, and are worth a shot.

One thing I picked up from Goat Rope Garage that you didn’t mention. Before starting to tune the VE tables, multiply the entire table by 1.10 and save. This way you know you’re starting rich and all corrections will be to take fuel out. Sounds like I’ve still got lots to learn on actually doing it, though. Maybe get some actual experience with tuning in a few months!

Not bad at all on that last pull. I'd say it almost sounds like it needs a bigger stall but since you are doing boost down the line and changing all of that anyway, this is probably more what it'll need for that. It is for sure soft on the bottom though and it probably may run out a little longer on top. Dyno will tell the whole story. Love it.

Yes. Goat Rope Garage is great. Parallels what I’ve learned from Greg Banish.

It’s already disabled. You are referring to “Brake Torque Management”. Probably the biggest reason it won’t do a better burnout is LT’s elevation. His Baro is 87kpa so the truck just doesn’t have as much power as it would at a lower elevation. It would need a looser converter to really do a good burnout at his DA.

@@GMT400Chevy sigh. No it won't. There is still 70% torque management in the entire table, the speed of the shifts does not hurt anything, in fact creates less wear, and the 25% increase in line pressure will also help the trans live. Understanding what torque management is, and how to manipulate it to your needs is how you make transmissions live. I have a Silverado with a built 4L80e behind a turbo 6.0 l in a regular cab short bed, truck makes a significant amount of sauce. And it still has torque management. I'm not new at this.

Fortunately I already had a VE table that I had dialed in while steady state on a dyno for his combo, from a similar build that I had tuned. All I had to do was scale it for his Baro (87kpa) and then he loaded it in. I wouldn’t have had to scale it if the Gen 3 ecm used PRatio. He double checked it and I was within a few percent everywhere minus where it appears he is dropping fuel pressure slightly up top. We quickly resolved that and then enabled the MAF and my MAF transfer data was also basically spot on right off the rip. I definitely agree that dialing in while steady state on a good dyno is always best.

Hey LT, if you failed out the MAF, has that negated your adjustments for the electric fan with the alternator demand? I might have misunderstood.
@LawrenceTolman
@LawrenceTolman 2 жыл бұрын
no, the setting for the e-fan will still work to bump the idle speed because that setting simply acts to open the IAC motor and provide more airflow to the engine when the fans come on, has nothing to do with the calibration of the MAF sensor (or whether or not the MAF is enabled).

I'm currently doing almost the same thing. Except it's a 5.3, and an '08 (so gen IV). But similar cam, LT's, etc. Question (for you, or anyone else!). When you're key on, engine off, what MAP reading are you getting? I'm at about 3000 ft above sea level, and from what I'm seeing it should be around 99.5kpa. But I'm only seeing 90. ??

I've read (no personal experience so take with a grain of salt) about Bosch sensors not grooving with stock gm computers + LS engines on occasion.. evidently in f-body Camaros they can cause false-lean readings & bad idle quality among other things. I went with Delphi units.
