03-05 Cummins 5.9L Support

[GMPX]

I am not in EFI's marketing department but if i were i would wonder why it is they don't attempt to make this work because the money he could make off the 03-05 guys alone i would think would make up for all the 2010+ duramaxs and cummins..

It's not a numbers thing, it is a technical issue and time issue, nothing more.
But, you need to be aware that technically 03 - 05 is not correct also, the 2003 had a different (very dumb) ECM compared to the 04-05, so it is really only a two year model run that could be supported anyway. Compare that to the LML which runs 2010 - 2015+. Some would argue 2010 - 2015+ Cummins would be a better option than the SCI trucks, but of course they put developers in a world of pain with the high level of security on them.

At least tuning the 04-05 we wouldn't have to worry as much as tuning the lml as far as emissions go. Plus there are a million 04-05's.

When you say that the 03's are a dumb ECM does that mean that you guys may not support them? I know that this is like beating a dead horse but I have people asking me about tuning them all of the time.

Anymore light on this subject? I know you guys are going back to the 6.7L to tie up some loose ends, just checking to see if it is being taken of the back burner.

6.7L has only just moved back into development this week. There is nothing to update at this point of time. Feel free to ask again a couple of weeks after we've digested the 6.7L public release update.

Sounds good, I will pass on the info.

Any updates?

[Gandolf1974]

Yes any updates? You guys have been working on this for two + years. I work in IT and I know that development can take a little bit but jeesh. We are waiting and restless!

I'd take a 04.5 right here. . Updates?

[cindy@efilive]

We have worked on SCI sporadically over the last couple of years. I think we've invested maybe 2-3 months of development in total without the results we hoped for. With our other development plans finalised for 2014, I can say it won't be touched in 2014. We haven't said we won't go back to it, but when the sci bus is unfamiliar to our developers when measured against projects where they are familiar with, it's been prioritised accordingly.
