Let's talk about TUNING! Part: 1 the basics

A few of you guys have been asking me to make a video about tuning your Duramax, Powerstroke or Cummins trucks, so I finally made a video for you guys! After editing and reviewing this video I thought of some more stuff to talk about so I've decided to make this a 2 part series, I will make the next video in the coming weeks. The next video will cover the shift on the fly tunes, cts2 monitors, and more.

If you have questions ask in the comments!

Was thinking about tuning so I watched some videos. Thank you for sharing your tuning experience. As soon as you said the words VIN and cellphone number I said nope.

I spoke with him personally and he was very helpful with helping me pick out the right tuner for me, awesome dude thank you

I'm new to the diesel world having just bought a 100% stock 2013 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 6.6L LML Duramax. I want to do 4" exhaust from the V-clamp all the way back. I watched your video on doing that, awesome job all the way thru. Budget is always a concern. What tuner will give me the best bang for my buck and what company should I contact to get everything I'm going to need to do the swap. Thank You. I'd have to say your videos are the best I've seen and I've watched a lot of em.

The mini max allows you to clear a code which can keep you going & keep the vehicle from shutting down

Love the videos. I will be doing my own tune and delete on my 2018 Ram 2500 Cummins. Seems to be pretty straight forward with the hardware but how can I be sure that I am getting a quality tune. Who do you get your tunes from and why?

[maxpower]

Man I love your videos and clearly articulated explanations. I have a 12 cummins and have the mini max. Just had egr delete done and likely going to upgrade to efi live and have installed by a west kelowna company. Keep making videos please.

[steved.]

Excellent, please keep em coming. Love the LML stuff !

Nice video, so I do have a 15 Duramax and got it deleted they put a bullydog on … I see everyone Is praising about Efi live I’m towing a 10k lb enclosed 16‘ trailer my question is am I hurting anything if I keep bullydog at a tow tune? Or should I make the switch to Efi live ? Is Efi just a nicer way but Bullydog not necessary bad ? Thanks

Watz up bud
Wat the difference between un plugging the egr vs blocking off with plates...wats the right way
To get a egr delete..

I got the ezylink on my 2014 ram 6.7 best investment got SOTF and get the transmission tune it’s perfect shifts all the time no hanging gears full throttle

[andrewwilson]

Hey great explanation on the tuners! I have a question. I bought a 19 6.7 Cummins, and it is deleted fully with an intake. I purchased the full edge package tuner and it isn’t really what I hoped so I decided to go to EFI live and run their system instead. Once I program and upload my map, can I still run the edge monitor with it? I’ve heard different things like I would have to unplug the injector part of the edge and essentially just use it as a screen, which is fine, but have you personally seen it done? Thank you!

[bencox]

Great informative videos. Can you a video for a 2017+ Cummins HP levels and needed mods to prevent damage. Thanks.

[therealtouchmyshlong]

The grill on that Cummins is gnarly very cool

[christianstucki]

I have a 2016 6.7 dodge. Previous owner put a bully dog into it. Used to have a 2013 6.7 with efi live from armour inc. Does it make sense that the 2013 with efi live have much better fuel mileage vs the bully dog equipped truck? Same tire size same gearing. I dont see how this is possible unless the truck was lying to me lol

[Cdawg]

I bought a 2018 superduty. It was already deleted and he said it had 5 ezlynk tunes programmed already but he never installed the SOTF . He said if I order a switch and tap into the fuel sensor and I’ll have 5 tunes . Question 1 does that make sense and if I add a switch how can I tell if it’s actually switching tunes ? Or can I add my own tune and will it over ride the one that’s on it

[justinwelchner]

Have you ever had a LML say engine power reduced after dpf and egr delete and tune? I used H&s mini maxx. The truck seems to have full power.

[JoeStew-wu]

When you delete the DPF system, are you removing the def fluid from the tank or removing the tank altogether?

[PaulDoyon]

Purchased a 16 F350 6.7 truck with unknown tunes and a 5 position SOTF on it. Wondering if the EZ Lynk would read the tunes and give me a description of the tunes and their positions on the switch? Any ideas on how I could find that out?

[quentinstore]

Hi I just picked up my first diesel truck a 2017 ram with 3000 miles on it. I’m not looking for more power really I just want to delete it…I’m looking for plug and play and reliability… who and what would you recommend?
