Race Box Beta Testing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, defueling works perfect. I'm having tons of surging from PL2-PL10. I have a very rough idle on PL1-PL10, switch it to PL00 and it idles perfect. Take my key out, ABS & Airbag light come on and the truck runs and runs, no turbo timer here. The high idle ramps up to 900 rpm but idles really rough? Got to go back to the previous program because my truck idles very bad on any level but PL00. Very weird. When is the turbo timer supose to shut the truck down? My FASS shut off early as the turbo timer kept going and shut down after a hard PL10 run?
Lots of weird things going on here! Very cool update!!!!

What did the Air Bag and ABS lights bother?? Mine only did it when I was leaving the truck with my BD timer so who cares?? Doesn't set a code is normal when you fire the truck.. soo.....

Curious to how quad is working the high idle?? Seems it is at different RPMs for everyone? If he is just applying an APPS voltage that can vary from truck to truck and maybe cause different results?? I know the pot on my high idler can be a bit touchy.. Only talking from around .5 to 1 volt for idle ranging from idle to 1200ish I believe... (Been some time since I've played with it...)
Not really a huge issue. But when people pay 6-700 dollars for something most people want it to work flawlessly. I for one don't care, but I'm sure if I was running a beta test I'd want to know of any lights/non normal actions that are the direct result of the equipment I am asking the testers to test. If its' something Quad can fix great if not he can atleast be aware of the issue and not blindsided with these little issues once the box goes GA or production.
Pretty sure there is no way to keep the abs and air bag lights off with the key off and the engine running. Every one I have messed with has this same anomoly. I think most people do not pay attention to them once they pull the key and get out of the truck.
I am a little curious on the high idle thing. The few trucks we messed with were flawless. I will want to see a few more trucks first, I am sort of wondering if different injectors cause different problems at idle. I know with stock injectors it works perfect. I don't really want to discuss how we do it because I do not want everyone else doing it!!!!!!!
I am also curious how we have a rough idle???? I don't see how that could be possible??? I will look into it, I will be curious if that happens to anyone else. This set of tunes should be smoother than any other one we have put out.
We are going to wait and see more results before we knee jerk. I will be paying attention so if it works fine let us know, if not let us know what is broke like these other guys!
Thanks for the feedback.

This update is quite an improvement on my truck. Most noticeably less surging. I noticed a slightly rougher idle then normal. The surging will happen during slight to moderate acceleration, but doesn't do it at all under WOT. The surging during power braking happens at about 10psi and goes through 15psi (didn't try higher). It does it with the RAD on or off. Building boost however is very easy and progressive. Much better then a TST Comp, and at least slightly better then a Drag Comp. I hope getting rid of the surge doesn't detract from it's manners when building boost.
Going by boost and EGT's only, my truck performs best on PL08. PL09 and PL10 have progressively slightly less boost, and sounds like they have too much advance. To put it in perspective though, under the same temp conditions, my Drag Comp has WAY to much advance.
I don't have the EGT probe hooked up yet, so I can't test the defuel. The TT didn't work on mine, but I may have it wired wrong for that. I'll try the high idle in the morning.

Ya, the FASS stopping was weird as it's never happened before. The surging is gone on heavy throttle but really there on light throttle which is opposite from my TST Comp?? The ABS/Air Bag light doesn't bother me a bit. The rough idle thing is very weird but not very good for my truck. The high idle will be so cool when it works on my truck and the turbo timer doesn't matter to me because my remote starter has it built in. Have to test it with my remote starter to see if the high idle works tomorrow. I'm thinking I'll have to go back to the Factory PL6 program so I don't wreck something with the harsh idle on PL2-PL10.
turbo timer turns off @ 3 minutes, wont turn off with the brake pedal. high idle goes to 900 degrees @ 2 minutes, and wont disengage with the brake pedal. will test defueling and power tomorrow...
Just checking in. I received my test box today and will hopefully have it in tomorrow. I am really looking forward to it as this is my first real power mod. I probably won't tap the wire for awhile (a day).
Thanks Quad
