HP Tuners for 2005-2015

@loginfailed, thanks again for poking a hole in my wallet I mean for thinking about your hp brethren with those injectors. Really appreciate your efforts for me/us.

 

You install ‘em yet?

 

No. Been a process for me. Complete gauge/electrical rewire on Saturday, helped @crashnburn80 get his radiator in on Sunday. He loaded my laptop with hp tuners files. Now appointment with our hp tuning help specialist, then injectors. Apartment living sucks. But being patient and having TW support buddies rule! It's just a matter of time. Bottom line is I'm grateful to save on the group buy. I'll never be first in the pack, but I'm in it.

 

Hahah Apartment living does suck, but I sure got alot done during week days I had off and no one was parking behind the complex. Most of my mods done during working hours....painted fenders for 3 days straight while no cars were there, brought the fenders back up to the apartment to gas off during the night. Wife hated it, but still worked HAH.

 

Has anyone got a wideband to successfully work with the logger yet? Using the analog input with AEM 4110. Google hasn't helped so far and HPTuners Forum seems to have more than a few unresolved threads on this issue. Probably going to submit a ticket

 

A few folks have.

You'll want to add your wideband AFR output to your channel list by adding it through the Transform function versus the MPVI2 Pro input.

Post up a screenshot of what you're adding the PID to the channel list.

 

Did you go with their stage 3+?

 

I ended up with the 2+ cause I needed a clutch fast. Thought I was only installing a new throwout bearing at the time. Spec usually only builds to order especially for our tacomas. But the 2+ is rated 440 hp and has great drivability. Anyway, I would have probably gotten the 3+ if I had more time.

 

I did.

 

I thought you were running a twin disc..

Is their stage 3+ a single disc?

 

On the OEM transmission I used the SPEC 3+. When I moved to the T56, I also purchased a 3+. It is the same 12" disk as a 97-01 Camaro, with a Tacoma hub.

Then went crazy and had the twin disk developed, by McLeod Racing.

 

jezus a twin disk on a tacoma. lordy.

 

Gotcha, thanks for the info, sounds like SPEC stage 3+ will be my next choice when it's time for another clutch. How many miles did you have on yours whenever you swapped trannys for the T56? Im really hoping the SPEC will have a better lifespan than the URD clutches

 

I couldn't tell you the mileage. I can tell you that the competition clutch 6puck couldn't hold the torque my engine made. Started slipping far too soon after install. Sold it. Got the 3+ rated at 550 engine torque. Held 550 wheel torque, without hesitation. Daily even.

Most people will be good with the 2+, like @TRON has.

 

I mean in URD Stage 3's defense, I'm hard AF on my clutch. It's not really a surprise it grenaded. I drop the clutch often on mine. I don't baby my clutch, I realize this, so I wasn't terribly upset that the clutch failed. Just glad the trans didnt fail. Once I get into a better financial situation I will be looking into more upgrades for my driveline to prevent what happened this time.

 

Back to tuning.

Im thinking I am going to try and change just the 4 to 5 shift by the 170 / 200 rpms to see how that affects drive ability. I might also play with downshiftings in the lower gears to see if I can get it to hold a gear longer before downshifting. This should keep the upshift smoothness and help eliminate some of the hunting at lower rpms. All speculation, but if I get the chance tonight ill give it a try.

 

Is your t56 notchy? Mine is unless i spin it up more especially the 1->2 and 2->3 shift.

Then i also have issues with getting it in first at a stop light unless i do it while slowing down. Its likenit gets locked out of first unless i let the clutch in/out. Makes zero sense. Has the issue even if the car isnt running

 

When is the last time you changed your transmission fluid? I run redline oils D4 ATF.

If that doesn't help, then you may have some transmission issues.

Could be something with the throwout bearing. Do you have the spacer on the bearing itself, or between where it mounts to the transmission?

 

So any heartbeat on 2TR-FE support?

I'll be more than glad to send in an ECM.
