I have a twin turbo diesel with two maps available, normal mode and sport funny thing is the mpg doesn't really drop in sport the engine appears to run better great video thanks
The manufacturer for aftermarket parts, or a quality retailer (not just one clipping the ticket on parts they know nothing about). So if you're fitting a Kelford cam, talk to them, ideally before you even buy it =) For OEM parts its harder as they can't tell you, but for many vehicles that are not new to the market there is a ton of information on forums etc laying out the power levels that are considered 'safe' for many parts. Outside of that a respected engine builder with experience will have had a ton of customers doing a lot of different things and will have a good idea, tuners too. The key is really just to not be afraid to search and talk to people taking your time before pulling out your wallet. Hope that helps! - Taz.
I’m having trouble with this 2003 Ford F-250 7.3 can’t read the pcm or write with HP tuners not sure what’s going on. The CCM monitor will not set any help
I can not find anything for my diesel, or mini diesel I’m going to call it in relation to these beasts your playing with… I have a 1.6 litre tdci motor tiny but I want to modify it, I have had a stage one remap but want more … very limited in the uk 😢
Is there a difference between a diesel engine with a mechanical fuel pump and one with a common rail? Is the AFR limit with full engine load the same? whats is de EGT limit? thank in advance!
The fundamentals are the same for any 4 stroke diesel, but how you approach the tuning process is different given the systems are really very different. They are all controlling the same things just in different ways at the end of the day - Taz.
@@hpa101 That is, the afr should be the same for both types of systems? I need to make my truck as durable and reliable over time (ideally to improve fuel efficiency) so I need to know about afr and egt to make it reliable since many times I connect a tow truck for my work. thank you!
Yes, the relationship between air and fuel works the same. Easier to make changes and control it with a common rail system though of course but you make power in the same way, melt things at the same temps etc etc 😎 There will be some knowledge in there that won't apply to you, but if you are looking for a bit of a start I think you will still find value in this course. If I'm wrong, you can grab a refund 😉 - www.hpacademy.com/courses/diesel-tuning-fundamentals/ - Taz
WHAT IF THEY WANT 1,115 PS (1,100 hp; 820 kW) at 1,650 rpm Specific power: 11.3 PS/L (0.18 hp/cu in; 8.31 kW/L) Compression ratio: 16:1 Specific fuel consumption: 0.175 kg/PSh (0.391 lb/(hp⋅h); 0.238 kg/kWh) at max continuous
I don't believe that's what is being said. From my understanding, the added fuel that you command with these tunes requires a stochiometric ratio of air and fuel. More fuel will generate more power, but it will be even more efficient if you can introduce more air and maintain a good a/f ratio. Which I understand to be 14.5:1 for diesels. Black smoke just means unused power.
The fundamentals of what is discussed do and there is a 6.7L PS specific example in the course too. Your actual tune will be different from the example the tutor shows, but you use the same knowledge and tools to create it as he demonstrates 😎 - Taz. www.hpacademy.com/courses/practical-diesel-tuning/?
The accessibility for end users who want to tune their own engine, but not spend a ton of money to buy a2ls, winols, lessons is just not there. I understand how I want the engine to run, but getting info on finding maps, switches in the binary is all locked behind huge pay walls. I can't justify a winols licence for my own pickup, so I'm to the point of trying to find things in the binary and modify it directly. I mean ez lynk will do a lot of the work, but finding things like how to ignore faults is almost completely undocumented.
@@hpa101 Specific to me would be the YS23DETT in my Navara. Obviously current Hilux 2.8 and cars like the Ranger, Isuzu/BT50 etc are all relevant to us here.

Nick does his best for you guys! Hope it helps 😎 - Taz.

Man this is really great content. Would love to see all parts of this. Eventually will purchase the full course but this is awesome
Coming soon to TH-cam, but they are already here too: bit.ly/FreeDieselLessons - Taz.
Don't buy it, not hp tuners course. He mostly uses other programs. Major let down.
How about a 2.0l TDCi MK3 Ford Focus. Can these be tuned above the base 161 BHP 120 KW 340 NM?
Can't wait for part 2
Great explanation
Hope you found it helpful and cheers for the comment 😎 - Taz.
Where can I find out what given components can handle my main concerns are cams and timing chain

WHAT IF THEY WANT
1,115 PS (1,100 hp; 820 kW) at 1,650 rpm
Specific power: 11.3 PS/L (0.18 hp/cu in; 8.31 kW/L)
Compression ratio: 16:1
Specific fuel consumption: 0.175 kg/PSh (0.391 lb/(hp⋅h); 0.238 kg/kWh) at max continuous
So leaning a/f ration makes more power?
I don't believe that's what is being said. From my understanding, the added fuel that you command with these tunes requires a stochiometric ratio of air and fuel. More fuel will generate more power, but it will be even more efficient if you can introduce more air and maintain a good a/f ratio. Which I understand to be 14.5:1 for diesels. Black smoke just means unused power.
does this all translate to a 6.7ps
The fundamentals of what is discussed do and there is a 6.7L PS specific example in the course too. Your actual tune will be different from the example the tutor shows, but you use the same knowledge and tools to create it as he demonstrates 😎 - Taz.

Interested to know more about diesel tuning, but more about vehicles available in Australia rather than the big Yank monsters.
Give me your top 3 (modern common rail that is, no TD42's or 1kz's (yet!)) - Taz.

@@hpa101 i want some td42 action!
Just put an AMG Patch on it like a real Tuner and youre fine
