Are these tables going to be implemented for the 6.2L Cad. Escolade?
I would also like to know about VVT tuning for the 6.2L.
We can add these in for sure, but depending on how complex it all works we might not get around to it for the next release which will be the E67 .cals this week sometime.
Cheers,

What about being able to just turn off VVT? I want to put a 6.2 in a trailblazer and just turn off the VVT.
Why turn off VVT? It makes waay more power with VVT, look at the 4.2L I6 LL8 with VVT. It makes almost as much hp as the 5.3L V8s do (yes less TQ, but its an inline engine too).
What parameters does the VVT use to determine the camshaft position? I'm just wondering how it would be on a Forced Induction setup. Seems like advancing the cam down low with a fast spooling FI setup might not be good, the cam retard in the upper rpms might work out decent though.
If there is a load parameter it's based on in there somewhere that might be alright though. :)
I've added some VVT tables in to our next round of Beta calibrations.
So they will be appearing in the near future for you guys too.
I agree with ScarabEpic22, leave the feature on, seems like a good thing to me.
The desired position is based on Air Flow (load) and RPM.

Looks like that will work out nicely with a FI setup. :)
That attachment makes me curious now though. I see a table in there for "Cam position in AFM mode". I didn't realize there were any vehicles yet with both features or is that a glimpse into our future. :)
Thanks Ross.
6.0L in the new trucks comes with both AFM and VVT.Quote:

It's from a 6.2L Escalde.Quote:

The thing to remember about these ECM's is they are used on a wide range of engines now, so even though some engines don't have certain 'mechanical' functions it will still be shown in the tuning tool.
