Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has had success converting one of these engines for standalone use or for running on the engine dyno. I'm working with one that was flashed with another manufactures tool. With the stock cal and just VATS patch applied it starts and idles but barely takes any throttle and the response is very slow to the pedal. Full throttle TPS percentage sits at 25%. Searching around the internet I have noticed others with the same problem. I suspect that even though the calibration switch is set for manual transmission, the torque model is broken without the TCM controller in the loop.
So to summarize :
1. Anyone had success getting a LV1 or LV3 running properly without the gearbox controller connected ?
2. Is my conclusion correct, that with the TCU removed, the torque model is broken ?
3. Is there a manual gearbox segment swap that can be done using EFILive ?
Any input here is appreciated.
