Hi All,
Ok, so we've been a little absent from Diesel development for the last 4 or 5 months I guess. But, not because I was holidaying in the sun, no, no, been stuck in front of the keyboard as per usual, only, catching up on the gasser ECM development. Ok so most of you Diesel guys don't care about that, but, it's been fun (for me) and we've been able to come out with some revolutionary enhancements for the 2006+ gasser tuners that are using the E38 & E67 ECM's.
So, back to what is happening with the Diesels.
First up is to revisit the calibrations for all the Duramax's. The LB7 & LLY's already have a bunch of items to play around with but there is a couple of things that we do need to add in based on customer requests. So, at some point a new calibration set will be released for the LB7 & LLY.
We also have a new custom OS just for the LLY's that I actually started to work on last year the same time as DSP5 but it kind of got pushed aside (even though I really enjoy coding custom OS's). We will be looking for a few testers for that in about a month or maybe less so keep your eyes open, I have to do some preliminary testing here first.
Then on to the LBZ / LMM Bosch ECM (the lovely thing it is )
We had planned on doing a major update to the LBZ & LMM cals once the gasser development was toning down (which it will in a couple of weeks time I'd say). I just can't work on gas and Diesel at the same time, it's too confusing switching your brain from Bosch Diesel ECM's to Delphi gas ECM's and back. I always tell my wife, I can't do two things at once, you know how could I possibly watch TV and do the dishes?
It doesn't seem like it to me but we released the LBZ tuning 7 or 8 months ago so it is well overdue for an update regardless. Plus of course GM just released a new LMM OS for the 2008 models, so, I was going to be revisiting the LMM cals shortly anyway.
So fingers crossed we can get some updates out before the racing season is over....
I know Paul is working almost 24/7 on V2 firmware too so he tells me the standalone features can't be too much further away.
Cheers,
Ross
