Good response.
Almost like Otie's a trained PR guy.
I sure hope I'm wrong about this trans, but not holding my breath. I do expect we'll be seeing the first 6L80 swap quickly.

I'm doing research on it right now.
And its so much easier to control emissions, fuel economy, driveability, NVH, etc with an automatic..............
Fml I better hold on to what I got I guess manual diesels are becoming extinct over here
Transmission tuning support is also available with EFILive. Switchable tuning on the fly development is about to move to in-vehicle testing.

Thanks for the pics. I'll take any news at this point. I'm starting to get impatient.
Out of curiosity, anyone know what the sensor in the (I'm guessing) downpipe is? If it is the downpipe, nothing I know of would make sense.
Wouldn't be IAT as it's before the intercooler. Can't be a pyrometer as it's on the intake side.
The only thing I'm guessing it may be is some boost reference? I know these things have a 'throttle body' for lack of a better term. I'm assuming what us gassers know as manifold pressure would be behind the throttle. Are they measuring both fore and aft pressure? If boost gets too high in front of the throttle they close the turbo vanes down?

It's a iat sensor.
Here is a picture of E98 DSP4 that we posted with the E98 release last week.
LML switchable tuning will never happen. ECM design and security took care of that.

Cindy, awesome work on DSP-4 for the E98! You guys are amazing. :thumb:
Is DSP on the E98 via discrete input, or CAN? Hopefully its discrete input.
Out of curiosity, does the international market use a DPF and DEF and such, or is it just the US market. I was looking at some pics and videos of the 2.8L overseas, and didn't see a DPF or even a cat on them, yet they still ran smokeless.
Damn Robert, about time you showed your ass here.:happy2:
For some of you guys that don't know Robert Miller; he happens to be the best Duramax tech around. He does all of McRats wrenching and is the only person I allow to work on my truck.:thumb:
He was pretty good back in the day on that TL1000R of his too! I have a photo of Rob behind me dragging knees on a SoCal road circa 2001 but I can't locate it at the moment. Good times that I'll always cherish.
As far as mods go, the 2.8 is a proven engine as it's the same casting that was used some years back in the Jeep Wrangler and is now used overseas. They just essentially got rid of the Bosch and went to a Denso fuel system and threw on the SCR, which improve OEM performance obviously.
But the limitation is the 94mm bore combined with only 4 head bolts per cylinder limiting max Cylinder Pressures. And the same little GT1752 only with a water cooled center bearing and with a different trim compressor wheel for our altitude variations isn't going to get you very far either in the power department. This little engine will end up around 205 rwhp and 425 tq before turbo over-speeding occurs and exhaust backpressure becomes the limitation. I know that won't stop many from pushing it harder. And breaking more parts.
I usually broke stuff when I went all nuts on my diesels so I keep it nice and mellow now. 200 rwhp and 400tq will tote my mountain bike and 180# ass around just fine. I leave exploring the 'bleeding edge' up to you guys!
I GDE tuned my wife's Grand Cherokee Eco-D and it runs like an absolute champ. From 10mph-75mph it accelerates like a Hemi and we average 27 mpg with 80% in town driving. The 2.8 Canyon isn't going to have as much engine as the Eco-D (I4 2.8L vs. V6 3.0) nor as good of a transmission (6sp vs. 8sp) but the Twins are going to weigh 1100# less which is going to result in a comparable experience I suspect.
