this might be one of the only vids that show how to get a cammed ls running for free thank you

I have put a 12 mm plenum spacer and manifold spacer drim mace engineering! My CAI is running too cold ? Ported and polished throttle body all made a big jumpy difference! This is what I needed! Thanks 👍

[@mikemakesathing]

you da man! thanks JR, I appreciate all the time you have spent trying to get us numb skulls up and tuning. Thank you.

[@markbauman1411]

Thanks for helping some of us figure out how to do this

[@docfischer7291]

Actually doing something opposite, I am looking at building my father/son project with a 5.9 Magnum . Ditch the Dodge ecm and use a more adaptable LS computer . Swap all of the sensors since I’m replacing all of them anyway. Looking at PC Hammer and TunerPro with the Bluetooth dongle I guess. Good to see someone getting in depth . Thank you .

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

The 411 PCMs are very adaptable, as long as you can get a 4x or 24x crank signal into it, it can probably run your junk

[@tonguedarts]

Excellent video as usual, JR. Thanks man!

Tuner pro question. How do you get the Acquisition menu on theer. I downloaded Tuner Pro but i am missing menu items. What am I doing wrong?

I followed your direction and my truck would start then die immediately. And I got a strong odor of gas. Not sure if I missed something or what. But going to try again tomorrow ! Any advice on how to learn how to tune?

I'm going to assume you didn't get the VATs deleted properly.

Great video. Apparently I have a unsupported OS (OS ID: 12593058). I've searched high and low and can't find a compatible XDF file. Do you know where I can find a compatible XDF for my 2003 GMC Yukon XL 1500? Thanks

You're doing it backwards. Find an OS compatible with a working XDF

I know there is a way to use Tuner Pro on my Audi. It's an 01 A4, I can figure out how to get started! Like from nothing, I can't find enough info on it. How to I get all the tables?

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

The tables come from an XDF file, I have no idea if anyone has programmed XDFs for an Audi

[@JohnDoe-mx1sq]

1.8t? Nefmoto has xdf

[@Jason-kn3tw]

Thanks for the videos , just getting started - have read bin and found xdf file - but getting the OBD2 readers to hook up seems to be hit and miss - using obdx pro gt with the USB cable So now just having a play around , it's a spare pcm so not to worried lol What's involved in making it a mafless tune ? I've seen you can set the maf fail to zero but is that it ? I do have a wideband so will use that for tuning afr cheers

Do u have a link for the 12216125 XDF you used in this video?

Quick question. I’m in the process of rebuilding a gem 3 5.3ls , I’m putting in all of the forged goods I can. I’m planning to swap the engine into my bmw e36 m3. Problem is, I’m not sure whether I should go for terminator x , or get a wiring specialities harness. I’m planning to put a turbo on it. Will I be able to tune it on TunerPro once I go turbo ?

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

You can use the stock harness. Tunerpro doesn't care if it's turbo'd or not.

[@jb2284]

The bin files that come from gearheadefi, are they all stock bins?

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

Yep

If you turn off a DTC, does it still set the code but just not turn on the mil light?

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

You can set it to not report, or to not trigger

@@TheDrivewayEngineer I know I had seen that but thank you for pointing it out. I was getting tired of seeing the codes.

[@braedynrichardson4746]

do you have to use a bench or can I just use pcm hammer and plug it in and write my tune?

[@TheDrivewayEngineer]

You can try, at the very least pull your radio fuse. I'd recommend using a bench harness

[@martinez1701a]

So im getting into tuning and I just bought HPtuners and I'm thinking I should get obdlink also (gonna make a bench tuning station) im thinking to do simple things like vats deletes and idle etc obdlink and pcm hammer are good tools to have but anything more I should just use HPtuners?

It's by far easier

@@TheDrivewayEngineer I will watch that, but a gentleman in the pcmhacking forum helped me out since the V6s are supported yet. Not really sure why since it's the same PCM and engine has the same geometry minus 2 cylinders. I uploaded my bin file and he was able to find the VAT option for me and change it. Got it running today. In the future when the 4.3s have xdf's I'll brackets to go in and actually tune and such. But she runs so I'm happy for now.

I can't find an XDF for my OS. I hear there's a way to change the PCMs OS but I dont know how? Does anybody know how?

Write a new one. The same way you'd write yours back if you could find an XDF

[@323spy]

Find an XDF and OS that work with eachother and match your transmission and Engine setup. Then replace whatever OS your PCM has with this new OS by following the instructions in the video JR posted in these comments. Use the matching XDF to make any changes to the new OS file and flash/write it to the PCM as needed. The only change you need to start a stock engine is to turn off the VATS.

It really isnt very hard to create an xdf file

hey JR , im trying to remove vats, enable electric fans and remove trouble codes with tuner pro, pcm hammer and OBD2 lx dongle according to pcmhammer, my pcm is 12200411 for a 2002 avalanche mated to a th350 tranny with de-pinned harness, and only precat O2 sensors. i know my XDF is 12212156 and i found both gearhead efi and boredtruck owners but waiting n waiting to be approved there, and boredtruck owners confused me. i couldnt figure out how to download their XDF, if i clicked on it it opened and looked like 150 pages of code but no download link. Rick at LS1 says he will email it to me. Someone also said i need the proper checksum files? what do these do and how do i install them in tunerpro? Once i get changes made to my bin, I need some tips how to actually write my new modified bin with pcm hammer now lets see if i understand the steps. 1. i use pcmhammer to read entire pcm 2. save that pcm bin file as stock unmodified bin -how do you save it as i only see option in pcmhammer to save results and debug log. is it one of those options ? 3. then i use tunerpro to open that saved bin, make changes i want and delete codes 4. then save as modified bin 5. then use pcmhammer to open modified bin, but which option writes it to my pcm? under tools; -write parameters -write OS, calibration and boot -write full flash/clone under operations; -write calibration then let it do its thing and i should be done?
