TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Do you know which calibration your ECU is at?

Curious if yours has the original calibration (30480000) or the later one that came out for the spark knock (30480100). Mine is 30480000.

What is the best way to find out? I believe my donor ecu was off a 2014

 

Do you have a scangauge or Ultragauge? Torque app with obd2 reader? If so you should be able to read it.

 

Ultra gauge

 

Well it popped the misfire code again. The only thing I can think to do is change the plugs.

Also my CEL doesnt blink ever.

 

It should be displayed on one of the screens of the Ultragauge.

 

The cel should blink when you first turn the key on. The number of blinks is the tune in the ucon. 1 blink=s1, 2 blinks=s2, 3 blinks=s3.

 

I have an UG too. This is the manual: http://ultra-gauge.com/ultragauge/support/Ultra_Gauge_EM_Plus_3_4_14.pdf. Maybe I'm blind, I can't find where it tells you the ECU number.

 

Correct, Im referring to when my cel sets for the misfire code. I read it will blink if actively misfiring

 

That I don't know.

 

I'll have to plug mine back in and check. I could have sworn I have seen it displayed.

 

Just let it idle awhile, it was already warm. Fuel trims were fine except for initial 5 seconds on start up. Felt kinda rough at times. I used carb cleaner to look for leaks, virtually nothing happened. Then a p0305 so at least I finally have a more specific code.

My ug shows it as a “imminent code” so I dont know what difference that makes

 

@Chickadee what is your misfire update?

 

I’m sure some generic OBD2 devices will display it, but I used Techstream which obviously shows it, and an Autel Maxisys.

I don’t ever remember seeing cal ID displayed anywhere when I had my UG.

On most vehicles, the blinking CEL for misfires only occurs when it’s a continuous misfire. Little random ones here and there won’t make it flash, only set a DTC. Each manufacturer is different, not sure how many misfires in a row it would need to have before it starts flashing the CEL.

 

Well, the free-wheeling boosted days are coming to a close for a few months. It was 70 degF this am and super humid. Spring = Summer in Texas. Ah, I remember those 25 degF mornings...

 

Swaped coilpack 3 and 5. Reset battery, and it seemed to idle smoother. No cel yet.

 

The truck is definitely more sluggish feeling with this more humid warm weather. I already miss the crisp mornings on the way to work.

 

I really need to get the ov tune or get the ucon installed and get it cleaned up.

 

Go all Demon-like and use the aircon to cool the inlet air.

 

Well I plugged in the Ultagauge and couldn't ding the cal id. I know I can see it with my Obdlink LX adapter but I guess Ultragauge doesn't support. Sorry for misleading.
