Yesterday, Ron DeMonia and I had the privilege of doing some testing with Detroit Diesel's new DD-15 engine (pictured above). DD-15 is the replacement for the Series 60 engine, a workhorse that's been around for 21 years. From a performance standpoint, DD-15 is awesome: 14.8L of displacement and up to 560hp and 1850ft-lbs of torque. On the forensics side, DD-15 is a little difficult: it's a 2-module ECU, comprised of a Motor Control Module and a Common Powertrain Controler, and it somewhat resembles an MBE or VMAC IV. The issue we were looking at yesterday was how the calibration files should be accessed and downloaded. If you do forensic downloads and haven't seen the DDDL 7.x, take a look: it is completely different from any of the ECM /EDR software out there.
