Moroso 85473 breather from Summitracing...

[oleshifty]

just curious...what does that thing run?


(looks good btw)

[RedHeartbeat]

93 Octane

Needs tuned and HPTuners does not support a turbo'd setup on the 2007 so no tune yet.

dang it looks nice! you done alot of work for the time youve had the truck. where did you get that catch can from? i need one, when i removed the TB to clean it it had some oil in the intake.

[oleshifty]

may be a stupid question...but


if that's the motor/trans out of your older truck, couldn't you have a seperate (99-07) pcm control the motor, and leave your factory computer for the rest of the crap?


I realize it would require a 2nd harness or whatever and some hacking...but better then blowing from lack of tune

I posted the PN for the breather in the photo post, MOR-85473.

I probably should have left it alone and swapped straight from the 93 to the 2007 using a custom harness. I had no idea that HPTuners did not support a vehicle literally 4 years old already. I spent about $1300 in parts and shop labor swapping over to Gen4 stuff so it would be compatible to the 2007 setup.

There are lots of people running boost on 07+,you should be able to tune it.

It's cause his unique setup, 58x engine, with an 80e, calibration from a van, so no hptuners doesn't support the cal ID yet, but hopefully soon.
He can't get the file extracted from the modules cause hptuners doesn't recognize the calibration he's using, but he must use that cal due to the 80e behind an 07+ new truck.

[RedHeartbeat]

Yeah, I can't imagine how many hundred trucks you have the same tune calibration running in out there right now.

We actually tune each and every pcm,
Each one is flashed with GM's stuff, then read with hptuners, then i edit the file, then load it back in, for each one.
So each pcm gets it's original flash that GM intended for that vehicle.
Luckily, hptuners is a lot faster at supporting the common ID's out there.

but in a few months GM will come out with another one and hptuners will have to go through the process of identifying the OS.

Unlike your setup, nobody really wants to tune a van, unpopular, so we'll have to just keep waiting on the rare OS'.
