I looked on the Spartan site, from what I saw the Phalanx is for the 6.4 PSD. I didn't see anything about it being available yet for the 6.0 PSD.

There is one in the works. The only think lacking from it is a cable. Apparently the 6.4 crowd lucked out and didn't need the cable for the monitor to act like a tuner as well, but we are less fortunate.

You know that is a good question, I don't know the answer to that. Maybe so. I was planning on trying to call Matt this week and ask him another tuning related question, if I remember I'll try to ask that one as well.

right on! i am thinking of taking a little trip up there this weekend just to stop by and see his shop and what not. if you don't remember to ask him then i will. maybe he will be able to give us a better guestimate as to when the cable will be available. that is if he has been in contact with the boys at dashdaq lately.

A week from today I'll be in Knoxville, might try to endure the extra hour and drive over there as well. Give him a coronary by just showing up.

This make no sense. The dash daq tuner from spartan plugs into the OBDII port on the 6.4's with a cable from the Dash Daq to the OBDII port. You can get a plain dash daq from drew tech now for the 6.0's its just not a tuner. Since the tuning for a 6.0 go's thru the OBDII port why would you need a diffrent cable

I thought they were waiting to release it with their FICM tuning so you could tune the FICM and the PCM with the Dash Daq.

That's just what Matt told me, I don't know the dynamics of it.

I wish Matt would get it done, i want one to tune my fleet trucks with the ecomony tunes. One Das Daq tuner will program multiple trucks with additional licenses.
