Message: [QUOTE="B585Ford, post: 524854, member: 5497"] Well, it the spirit of Mike helping us all out with good info, I figured I try to provide some assistance…only my info is on what doesn’t work. I tried to make a program to use the VGT as an exhaust brake. My first attempt was a complete failure….I did my pre-testing (unloaded, but on hills steep enough where when I geared the truck down to 3rd gear, I was revving up to 2800RPM but would still pick up some speed and I went from RPMs of 1100-2800) and measured the speed and EBP. I then “wrote” a program where the only modification I made was to set the vanes to 95% at “0” torque for every RPM on the tables called “Turbo Vane Control 1”, “Turbo Vane Control 2”, and on “Turbo Vane Control Maximum”. I could not appreciate ANY difference in speed or EBP when going down the hills. Keep in mind, I have a hand shaker so I don’t have to worry about locking the TC. [/QUOTE]
