lope tune

[Mike_S]

I garantee you will run that lope tune for about a day and get sick and tired of it. These trucks dont lope like a car with a big cam. Every time they "lope" or surge, which is a more appropriate description, the truck will try to go. Meaning that if the truck is in gear it will lunge forward each time the engine surges, the driveline will bounce back and fourth, the rear end will clank, ect ect. So that "rum, rum, rum" that sounds cool, is accompanied by a nice "clank, clank, clank" coming from the rear end. And you look pretty silly bouncing up and down in your seat waiting at a stoplight while your truck rocks back and fourth and sounds like things are falling off of it. :roflmao:

That being said....ask me how i know.

No you don't.

I will say this I have done the loop tune thing like others said it was ok for a day that was it.

Same with the smoke (well a bit longer as the stupid ricers need some soot in the window from time to time)

As far as I have been able to see you can't have only one loop tune on the switch they would all have it.

This is not true unless you were dumb enough to put your lope on your base tune and then I am unsure if it would go to every tune.

When I had my LB7 I had a lope tune for all of about 30 min then I flashed it off the ECM after trying several different ways of getting it to lope I did not like the sound.

I did the lope tune about 4 1/2 years ago with my LB7. Truck ran like garbage and was on my truck for about 15 minutes before I realized it was a horrible idea. Had to try it though. I do have a smoke tune in my DSP5 but that's only for when someone's headlights dip below my tailgate and I can barely see their windshield because they are riding my ass so bad. Seldom does it get used. Everyone of my other tunes barely has a haze to it especially with the 68mm Cheetah I threw in.

ok....dont kill me guys. a lope tune is a easy way to learn the in's an outs efi live. thats how i learned how to use it...
ok so you have a 01 lb7 right?
well they are a few ways to do this...

1st way,go to the throttle pedal table then under cells 600-800 rpm and 0% set them in this range 18-28 thats the easy way...this way you will get the clank sound from the drive line had to drive,hard on u joint and trans etc...

2nd way "harder to do"

go to your base timming table,should be table c
now highlight cell's 0-800 rpm and 0mm3-25mm3 set timming to 0*

go to the main injection table 10 or 20 mpa now go and highlight cell's 10mm3 to 25mm3 add 5% at a time till you get the lope your looking for.

this lope is what i use,its smooth lope easy on parts as sound nice as well..

im at work so i mite not have the right cells in this post..

as far as a lb7 idle on a lbz all they are doing is opening up the vanes on the turbo same thing applys there..
just set cells 0-800rpm and 0mm3-25mm3 at 10 and it will sound like a lb7.

well just plz dont kill me...this stuff hes wanting to do really help me learn the efi live program.

So can we get back on topic. How is an LB7 lope or idle put on an LBZ, and if I can do that then can I fuel on takeoff for that occasional time some Prius SOB deserves it?

Take the vain tables and at 400-800 rpm set the 5mm-20mm area to like 4 and there you go also a lope tune will be In all tunes for a lbz/lmm trucl but the lb7 can have a separate one and have the rest normal i know for sure in a dsp2 you can have a lope and then a none lope tune but i hate my motor rocking like that bugs me but to each there own :thumb: feel free to ask me some more ?

I have a lope tune on mine. Doesnt get used much at all. Its more of a "hey check this chit out" when im drunk and go to sheetz. Have i driven with it in? Yes i have. And i did not like it at all. Its a tune for being in park and thats it. Not wanting to be bashed either, but thats what my .02 is worth. :rockon:

If you're so hellbent on a lope, just put a bad FPR in your truck, it'll lope without any tuning changes. Hell, you could even get it to lope by just changing the values in B1010.

 

[SparkZ03DMAX]

Look I use to have lope, at first yeah I thought it was cool, made a couple of videos on my youtube channel with the lope tune (kind of regret it now) but now that I switched tuners and got rid of that God forsaken lope, I am SUPER happy. I realized that it just wasn't very "professional" if you know what i mean. I believe out of the three diesels, the Duramax is the more upstanding one. Completely custom tuning, reliable engine and powertrain, and respectable build quality. So what it boils down to, smoke and lope tunes give the Duramax a downgrade in respect.

Deleted no sense in fueling the fire

Bought my truck with a lope tune on it and got ride of all my old tunes and got 5 custom tunes to my truck and love the way it runs! On the hot tune it blows quit abit of smoke and as soon as it catches up there's no smoke but point is lope tunes r extremely hard on a truck and rob won't even build u a smoke or lope tune so that's gotta tell u something there:thumb:

 

[millerman04]

Ive heard that about Rob from a friend of mine. I barely use it anymore. I could have settled for a dsp 2 instead of a 5. I run my hot tune, and my economy tune in the winter.

 

[motoking_1990]

Hmmm I did not know lope was that bad. My truck had lope tune on it when I got it and about four months after my Turbo went out. O and also my tunes were done by duramaxtuner.com and so far I can say I do not like their tunes too well. I don't think they dyno the tunes to the truck and the throttle response is terrible. Thinking about having fleece or danville performance make me some new tunes. Since I only live an hour from either one of them. But I want to get my twins before new tunes.

I Have never had a lope tune. I have a nasty big block chevy, if I want to here a real lope... But each to there own. I hope you guys realize most are just busting your balls here.

custom - adj 1. made to the specifications of an individual customer

If a customer is paying for custom tuning and they want a lope tune, a smoke tune, a puff of smoke on start-up, or any other non-performance or vanity feature it is their truck and their choice. A valet, high idle, or no-start tune is certainly not a "performance tune" but there are customers who want them.

If a lope tune has your drivetrain clanking you need to change it or check over your drivetrain - you probably have a bad u-joint. I have heard so many "I heard it's hard on ________" comments it's not funny; if you read the internet enough it will bend your rods, crack your pistons, break your crank, blow apart your turbo and converter, twist driveshafts, snap u-joints, and your injectors will implode.... :spit: I have hundreds of trucks that lope on one tune that have never had any of those problems. For the record you can make any 01-10 lope on just one position of a DSP5 switch and the lope on the LMM actually sounds the best IMO - it is more irregular like a cam'd gasser would be; the LBZ is next and still has an irregular, natural sound; then the older trucks which often get into to much of a steady rythme to where it doesn't sound natural.

Bottom line, it is your truck - if you think a lope tune is cool and want one go for it, if you want a high idle tune to warm it up in the winter have at it. If you want custom tunes that are actually "made to the specifications of an individual customer" find a tuner who will listen to you and write you the tunes you want, otherwise you are getting predetermined tunes loaded on with EFI Live.

Agreed. The injectors imploding part made me lol the most
