I would probably go on to say start fresh. Unless you're tuner knows what they're really doing, I can't imagine Whipple's leaves their files open for edits like that?
Yes, a tuner can modify the whipple tune if they are comfortable doing so. That's how my car is tuned today. Still running the Whipple OS, but tune is modified for what is done to my car. No, you can't change the IAT2 setup from how Whipple has it. If you do, then you'll need a complete retune on the Ford OS.
What are the disadvantages of using the Whipple tune as a base file ? If I swap my IAT back to the Whipple style set-up, do I lose anything ?
A tuner would be best to explain the pros and cons. Running the IAT2 harness the whipple way does not give you the opportunity to see IAT2 on your digital gauge cluster (it replaces the stock IAT1 info). You also can't log it with HP Tuners. If you are running the whipple tune, you must have IAT2 wired their way.
I have not been successful logging IAT2/MCT with HP Tuners on my whipple tune. Is there a trick I don't know about? See screenshot below, it always reads some wonky negative temp:
I have found using Intake Air Temp 2 works. Try re-polling for parameters and see if you have IAT 2.I have not been successful logging IAT2/MCT with HP Tuners on my whipple tune. Is there a trick I don't know about? See screenshot below, it always reads some wonky negative temp:
**EDIT looking at a few old logs, it always reads -128*F
I will have to look again. I don't recall ever seeing it. MCT was the only option I believe. Maybe something different with the 15-17 cars compared to the 18+ cars?
That could very well be. Also possible your OS might be defined incorrectly by HPT. They have a track record of doing that. A support ticket might fix it.
