do u have the tnt or just the revo! if its just the revo i would put them on #4!

Does the revo software boost fool as well? I used to hit 42 psi with the old #5 but now I am only getting 32psi on any setting? The only thing I changed was downloading the revo.

 

[Garrett]

isn't there a option for the wastegate.

Yep... doesn't change whether I turn it off or on. Still at 32max now.

Used to get 40 on the old tune.

Try different ones and see what your rail pressure is at for each...

I've noticed I'm not boosting quite as hard with the REVO, either :CRY:

i dunno i never downloaded the revo i just went straight for the tnt! with the tnt i can get 39 and like you said use to be able to get 42!

With mine if i'am shifting I will only hit around 30 but when i'am in 6th and go to pass someone and hit it hard the boost goes up to 40, at first I thought I had a leak cause I just installed my new gauges but then I seen it hit 40 but I can only get it in 6th and gettin on it.

 

[Garrett]

i dont think its a bad thing..i thought i remember reading somewhere that the stock turbo is only good to 38!

Starting to make more sense now. I may stick with the revo instead of the TNT. I tow heavy so it may be best to stay with the lower tune. Last time I crossed the scales I was right at 25k so I may need to leave it on the calm side.


Thanks for the info fellas.

Interesting I was just bout to get the revo now I don't know if I want to. Can't wait to hear some other opinions bout this. Were is Bob lol

 

[smokedrail]

A couple of guys on here have said that they hit 50 psi on the stock turbo. I have never tried to see what I can get. With chip turned half way up I hit 40 no problem so I think 50 is possible

Happy camper.

The Revo defaulted 4.14 set on sw#3 is all I can use with the fuel costs being what they are. I carry 2000# on my back and love the stock clutch. Mileage is up a bit,smoke minimal wih proper driving and the engine is as quiet as stock. As they say in this part of the country,"I'm stoked!"

 

[Garrett]

why would you want to hit 50 on a stock turbo! im sure it can really handle that!

 

[smokedrail]

I'm just saying there are a couple that said they have.

 

[Garrett]

i know. im not trying to be @$$ or anything. im just asking why you would want to!

I do like the revo better than the other tune that I had. I really enjoy being able to use a lesser tune with less torque management. I don't like the hard hit of the power band with the stock truck and I do like being able to modify parts of the tune to clean up the smoke. I used to tow on 3 and play on 5 but 5 always smoked too much all the time for my preference. Now I can have the minimal smoke of 3 and have the moderate torque management setting that 5 used to give me and all is peachy. I'll know how much more I like it when towing after the weekend. I am making a 700 mile trip next weekend so we'll see if it helps the mileage.

Also the safety net for the stock turbo isn't so horrible either. I know I can get the other tune when I want it so if I feel the need to do play with the rice patties then I can and when it is time to work I let it work. I am towing my house around with me for work so the safer the tune that still has options, the better off I really am.
