To tune a truck with a custom turbo, would it require for it to be tuned on the dyno , or is just giving the specifics of the set up enough?

I believe that you should do it on the dyno, if it is a common turbo setup then you can get a preliminary tune so you can drive it to the dyno to get it done the right way.
Each truck has a different base tune, and you have to base all your changes off of that tune, so yes you can a more generic tune than a dyno tune to run, but if you want the safest and fastest tune you will need to get on the rollers. plus with a dyno tune it will be automatically adjusted for your altitude and if you have a good person doing the tune, you can have it adjusted to your driving style. Good luck, and let us know what you do! ![]() |

Thanks for the response, so in order to have it dyno tuned by PHP i would have to take it to their shop? is there a way they can tune it without me leaving texas.

if I remember right, if you find enough people, 8-12ish, that are willing to get their truck dyno tuned you can have Bill come to you, but... yeah that isn't going to be too easy but I bet Houston has quite a few dynos and people with trucks that they want tuned right...
![]() You can always keep the edge cs and use it for the gauges and DTC lookup ability. |
