How do most of you guys set the settings on this.
I do want everything to stay in one part!!
Just wondering what you guys use (and think is safe) for:
Max boost
EGT's
Max engine temp
Etc
etc
(what ever you can set??!!)
I do not know what I need and what is good.
I normally always drive without any load.
When I to it will be a 40FT enclosed trailer (75-80mph) +/- 8500lbs.
Only other upgrades are:
Air intake (stage 1 (cheapie))
and a MBRP 4" cat back.

The Juice only controls to EGT. It can monitor and alert to other data. There will be some differences between the LB7 and LLY as far as ECT and boost goes. I'd start by seting max EGT at 1400°f or so unless you want to be more or less conservative.

LB7 or LLY?
I would watch the EGT's and not worry about how high you set it, turn it way up there if you feel comfortable keeping an eye on the gauge and backing down yourself, if you dont want to watch a gauge set if for 1300 or so when towing and run with your foot to the floor. Run it at its lowest power level when towing. Set your alarms were ever you want them, I turn em way up since i watched my gauges and didnt need a flashing screen and a beeping to tell me I was doing something. Low boost fueling depends on personal preference, I ran with it set to 5, some run with it all the way down. Set defuel on all shifts. Most of it is personal preference. Unloaded I would crank the EGT back down way up since the only time you will hit it is at WOT durring short burst. Dont want it pulling fuel while playing;) Or turn that off when you go to play.

Thanks for the info!
It is a LLY engine.
I was also wondering about MAX turbo.
It came on factory (EDGE) setting of 25lbs.
Is this too high or OK or can I safely go higher???

on the LB7 it will just scream at you if you exceed its set point. It would drive me batty to listne to it screeching all the time. I dont think on the LLY it actually defuels or anything like that. Also duno what an LLY swings for boost normally with just a juice......have to get some input from the LLY guys

i do think it "defuels" (if that is what it does?)
If I step on it, it feels like it is "sputtering" on the top RPM.
I am waiting for my new screen to see exactly what it is doing (screen not working).
Thanks for the info. i will start a new thread with LLY in the title
