If so, at about what rpm would they do that? I assume it will immediately revert back to closed loop once you level out to say a 65mph cruise?
I know it's open immediately at WOT but I'm wondering with the custom tune if it opens up at say half throttle.
I'm getting my truck dynoed on Friday and plan to do atleast one partial throttle pull to check the a/f at a light load cruise as well.
There was some discussion on this subject in the thread "Torque Converter" in this forum. Bill indicated his tunes go into WOT at approx. 90-94% accelerator pedal position, at that point it is in open loop. Hope that helps.
