Hi Larry,

 

Boy, that answer sounds so familiar. I ended up purchasing a smoke machine and found no leaks. It was all in the tune parameters. I also had the surging at around 2000 rpm, which I thought was a lean condition. The way that I described it to Whipple was I was feeling almost a flat spot in the throttle. I felt as if the engine was starving for fuel at this point. When I data logged a test run, it showed that I had very high fuel trim levels. I never really got rid of this condition with the assistance of Whipple. I experienced either extreme changes one way or another from them. 

 

My suggestion is to contact my tuner. Ted Jannetty at Jannetty Racing made so much power, it was night and day difference from Whipple. Whipples product is awesome, but you have to remember that they are using several tuning programs, and every one of us comes from a different area in the states and each truck has different running conditions. Ted will read your data log and find issues and make changes that will fix your running condition. https://jannettyracing.com/, tell them Randy sent you. He will email with you with no problem.

Biggerdogg01 thanks a lot I will check into your tuner

Curious on the cruise control if that was or could be fixed via tuning? Kinda doubt it with vacuum controlled. My old 2nd gen dodge diesel with vacuum cruise hated bigger injectors and such and would surge rendering it basically useless as well.

heres a guy with a 2.9 Whipple on a 2500HD. I want to see your video!

Why does a 6speed 6.0 with a massive 2.9 whipple not seem much faster than a bone stock w/tune 6.2

I wondered the same thing; guessing it’s due to the lighter truck with a 6.2 that puts out power in the same ball park as the Whipple numbers posted earlier. I like the idea of a clean supercharger install on a new truck; however at the cost of entry, you lose not only your warranty, but also most of the cost advantage over buying a diesel to begin with.

If a whipple on an L96 only makes what a 6.2 lays down it has something seriously wrong with the setup.  That said these will be very mild so who knows.  The truck will be a 1000 to 1500 lbs heavier minimum which accounts for most of it.

Eh I’m sure its faster, tough to tell by looking at speedos

 

also for that 0-60 run, it was on a cool night, I had nothing in the bed, and an 1/8th tank of fuel. Basically perfect conditions.

I just installed on my 15.  He did a road tune with wude band.  Wouldnt fit on dyno.  Normal driving shifts great. Go half way it holds 3rd really long and shifts weird.

    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
    • I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
