Nexus Collaboration: YWNexus Blackhawk

Thanks for the review! I'm curious how your manual calculations compared to what your truck calculated. I've never personally hand calculated my MPG's.

The stock files for all currently supported vehicles are located within the install directory of vF Tuner.

 

Perfect, thank you. As for the calculations, between stock, 2.0b ovtune and now your tune I’ve been generally within 1+\- mpg when the tire diameter is factored in vs the dash readout. Winter time is usually off abit more because of increased idle time. This computer seems on a whole more accurate than my Cummins which is always 2-4mpg optimistic.

 

I’ll be back mid June…..

 

Any update on when the MT tune will be available? I have a buddy with a '19 Pro who's interested.

 

Fairly soon. We are working on finalizing some huge updates that will include MT options. Tests are in-progress.

 

Let's ride. I want to send some more night creek crossings at high speed...

 

So I've got a few thousand miles on the tune(+P non premium) and found it really likes 87 octane as opposed to 85, even at elevation. I've ran quite a few tanks on both and I'm getting an extra 2-3 MPG on 87 vs the 85

 

Will there be a charge for the update?

 

If you've already purchased, no.

 

Excellent.

Can't wait.

 

Unless I can fit my truck in my carry on I’ll be truckless.

 

The first post has been updated!

The Nexus team heard what the customers wanted and collaborated with YotaWerx, the group that brought you the greatest FI tune to the 3GT market! This collaboration produced a superb tune, dubbed Blackhawk! You wanted a manual transmission tune? Check! You wanted smooth power throughout the entire RPM band? You got it! You wanted more low end torque? Hold my beer and say no more!



Those of you who legitimately purchased M+W Nexus from us, you will have the option to update to this new tune free of charge. If you do wish to update, please hold off until the release, or until otherwise noted, before submitting a request as we do not want to overlook any previous customer from now until the release date.

We not only greatly appreciate YotaWerx and their team, but we also appreciate to a great extent the feedback from customers, as well as the testers between Nexus and YotaWerx. All of those mentioned accumulated hundreds, if not thousands, of combined man hours to get this tune to where it is as of today. The hard work from each and every one of you is what makes the Nexus name have true meaning.

 

I guess I legitimately purchased tunes, how do I get files? Thanks

 

Of course Vlad.

We will either open requests at release, or shortly before release. Expect us to post when we are ready. We opted to have previous customers request rather than us go ahead and just send out the new tune to all previous customers. This will eliminate any added work on our end from creating new files for those who may have sold their 3GT or who may be content with their current tune, whether that's M+W Nexus or an alternative.

 

Ahhh yeah! Can’t wait to give it a whirl

 

I'm very happy with nexus, so looking forward to Blackhawk

 

Does this just add manual transmission support or are there improvements for the auto guys out there too? I've got an auto with Nexus +p. Just wondering if this updated tune is worth flashing.

 

Oh, the AT tune is radically different.

 

Stoked! Been running the PREM NA (3.0.5) tune for a couple weeks now. My truck loves it! Low end torque is incredible! Smooth thru the RPMs. Drivability is SOOOO GOOD! Can't wait for BLACKHAWK. I'm like a kid waiting for school to be out for the summer!

 

I've got a few thousand miles on my Nexus +P Premium tune now and it has driven flawlessly from the start. Good low end power, shifts perfectly every time under every condition, haven't experienced dead pedal or getting stuck in gear once like i did on almost every incline with KDMax Pro, and even with 33's on stock gearing it holds 6th gear better than it did stock. My worst tank with +P Premium has been 16.8mpg with a lot of city driving and every other tank has been over 18mpg with mixed driving. With KDM Pro I was getting 290-300 miles a tank and with +P Premium I'm getting 350+ miles.

Can't wait to try the new Blackhawk tune when it's released!
