I had two loud pops today with the TNT program. Sounded like a gasser backfire ***??? I have a RP gauge and I do not think it was rail drain as it will hold 20K+ to 120 mph once the tc is locked. I only get the pop when going about 75% throttle off the line the one time, and oce punching it about 40 mph. I am worried about running it anymore now I am set at SW 9, TM-3, RP-3, default timing.
Feed it too much in low rpm's, CP3 can not keep up, it will pop, burst, stumble, stock CP3 can only do so much.

I noticed today that the
SW9
tq 3
timing 3
rp2
produces hardley any smoke on my truck. My egt never get over 1200'
I had quite a bit of rattle on 1 and 2 but it now seems to be way down on power.
I'm gonna try timing on 2 and see if that brings the power back.

Thanks I guess it is time for a modded pump now. May as well get some sticks, springs, and a 2nd turbo while I am at it Darn Smarty is the most expensive thing I have ever bought

Slowsix, if you could, let me know what combo you find best on your truck as far as SOTP and spoolup so I have an idea when I try it again...
And....
those of ya'll with the MP-8 on 03-04s, what are ya'll setting everything to (smarty and MP-8) and what is working the best. If I can get the TNT with the MP_8 to produce better results I'd be just as happy. But I know it will play well with the 4.4.

I went to timing 3 and no more popping Still pulls really strong and smokes like a brush fire. Tried TM 2 again and the pop was back so I have found the settings my truck likes. Gotta love this program and it only takes a few minutes to change each setting which is great. I watched the rail pressure carefully and when I floor it off the line it ramps up to 19K+ very quickly now and the cp3 seems to be keeping up ... no big dips in pressure anyway.

Yes I am still on the stock injectors right now. I am using settings catcher-9, TM-3, shift defuel-0, timing-3, RP-3, and it runs great this way. Very smokey unless light on the pedal though but I like it that way. I have driven it about 200 miles this way now and am very happy, no more " pops "
