Hey Kyle your videos have been very informative and reassured me I could put my truck on the weight loss program 6 months ago I have a 2017 L5P I let the truck calibrate for over 1000 miles in the 4 th tune changed to the 5th tune drive it daily rolling into the throttle as we know they’re not race cars …. I monitor the truck with the I-dash no problems anymore and is fine in the 5th tune as long as you drive respectable great videos 🇺🇸💪🏼🦅
I’d point out the exhaust system still pressurizes the EGR all the way through the crossover pipe. So even if the EGR valve does maintain its seal, there are more sources of potential boost leak (pre-turbo exhaust leak) if you leave it intact. On a newer Ram that required the ECM swap, I saw a leak in a crossover pipe connection after reassembly. The owner hadn’t planned to do the EGR delete right away, but plans changed quickly, so he was glad he had the kit for it ahead of time.
1994 3500 Cummins 4x4 Regular Cab Manual with a 22 inch frame extension for the Tunnel box for my tools Twin line Challenger Wrecker Body and a Stinger underneath. The only problem was the throttle cable with the articulating ball which wore out. Otherwise she wasn’t the quickest truck back then but she rode like a Town Car and with 6 Michelins she went anywhere in the snow!! That’s a Truck!!!
Emissions systems on diesels are horrible. Especially in cold climates. I bought a brand new duramax within 5000km of driving. It had to be back to the dealer 5 times for emissions related problems! First was mass amounts of soot clogging a map sensor. Next it wouldn't regen it. It just said to keep driving regening but never finished. The dealer found the dpf was 300% full, and they had no clue why. Next, it got down to -30'C for the entire month of February. The def tank froze and cracked. Later that month, the def injector froze and cracked. Next, the dpf wouldn't regen again. It was such a nice truck, but I just couldn't justify keeping it with all the constant issues. I sold it and got a 4th gen deleted cummins now and loving it.
Great video I can forward to the the people I’ve deleted their trucks due to dealership Qouting them 10k plus to get their trucks back on the road even after the trucks are pushing 200k miles
Question. Deleted for sometime now on my 6.7 Powerstroke. Amazing truck, but man….. it’s one stinky pig. Considering adding a passive Magnaflow diesel catalytic to get rid of some of the stink. Advice?
I don’t sell kits myself I just work with the diesel dudes and recommend their kits. Everything comes in the delete bundle, their customer service is great, and guys seem to really like the kits. The odd time there’s a tuning issue (which is normal with any tuning company) but they are quick to figure it out and help out in any way. If you go to my website I have links to all their kits that earn me a commission if you buy something.
Yes there is, it is expensive though. The 2022+ rams require an ecm swap which raises the cost significantly. Totally worth it though. Here’s the link for that specific kit shrsl.com/4ke04
Yes PPEI can tune them now. It’s a separate module then the ECM, so you can just tune the transmission at any time and it won’t effect your engine tune.
Where do you recommend getting tune files from? The price of them has gone through the roof! To the point I'm starting to think I'm in the wrong business!
Got anyone in or around Tampa Florida that can work on a ram 6.7 ? Tired of hearing about that grid heater bolt problem and figure I should just have it all done once and for all. Any recommended shops?? Thanks
Being EFI live and Minimaxx are both $899 for my truck which do you prefer or feel are the better tunes on an 08 6.7L Cummins? Currently I am running a delete tune from minimaxx but no tuner. Base Zero hp I think. Bought it this way with 5" exhaust, installed head studs (using your video) and cold air KnN are the only upgrades.
Hey, who do you use for tuning? I have a deleted 4th gen using EFI live from CCS. Not super happy after many attempts at different tunes. Lots of issues with harsh shifting, finally just went back to stock shifting to avoid it slamming but the power and response is now shit.
Any idea if they’re gonna have a full delete for 3.0 Duramax anytime? Thinking about keeping the lb7 zf6 dually for hauling, buying 1500 for play and commuter.
@@nahbro3240 my guy!! you can't in Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland. You can resell it, but can't get a safety. Commercial purposes you can't.
I was just checking out their site and saw a liquid heat generator. Constantly at least -30 in Alberta for like half the year. Have you tried one of these units? Would it be worth getting?
I actually have one in my shop for a 5th gen Cummins. I need a truck to install it on. Apparently they work amazing, what’s your truck up in a couple minutes at an idle.
To do the tune. do you need to take it to a dyno and have it done or is it plug and play? never owned a diesel but looking for a 5th gen cummins to start
@darkirondiesel So is it better to buy one and instantly delete it and not worry about warranty? or keep the warrantys more asking if its more dependable
I deleted a 16 LML and blew my transmission going up a hill. I am worried about doing the same to my 17 350. Was my issue a one-off, or is that just something that happens?
At the end of this video I touch on how you should drive a diesel truck. If you drive it properly and don’t abuse it there’s no reason why you should never have transmission issues like that.
@urgentcaretruckrepair9410 which still worries me with all these diesel runner rolling coal and showing it off to everyone plus our political system it is just making It a little cautious
Not as expensive as the 2022+ rams! The L5P kits have actually came down in price lots over the past couple years. Before you had to swap the ecm, now you don’t. But the tuner and ecm unlock kit are costly which is why it’s still a few thousand.

I appreciate it man
Super informative! I learned a lot.
I have a 2.8 Duramax, and I see that the throttle valve is unplugged, so at least some do. 🤷♂️Great video!!
Very informative video, also enjoyed the South Park clips haha
Nice video. 2:15 - good one, that sums it all up.
Haha I thought it was very comparable
Great video my friend! Keep up the good work!👍

Best way to delete your truck: drive 80mph down a bumpy road. I did this and all that junk rattled off😂 Truck runs great now!
Great video
Thank you
Check out firepunk diesels video comparing a stock intake horn to banks. It made no difference on the dyno as expected 😂

Any news on 2024 gmc when kits will be available
Hp tuners hit the ecm last year it should not be long before the kits come out but it will more then likely be a ecm swap
Love your videos man! Alot of knowledge! I dont have an Instagram but if i did, I'd hit you up if I run into problems with my truck

Another great video thanks
Thank you!

Is there ever going to be a transmission tune for the Aisin?

It’s plug and play. If you buy a 2019-2021 5th Gen it’s much cheaper to tune then the 2022+ though, the 2022+ require a new ecm which is expensive.

Can you delete a truck that has a dead engine replace with new engine and remove stuff before you install engine
Don't see why not
I’d lubricity isn’t a word it needs to be one
😂 😂 😂
Now I can say that instead of just saying deletes are good no deletes bad 🤣
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Get rid of ALL the commie parts!!
Makes every engine run worse
Is it legal to delete ?
No
Look up your local laws it varies all over the world
Just a FYI, the feds are starting to hit these diesel shops that performs deletes with potential jail time and a big ass ticket.
And that's what worries me when I see people posting this

You stalking me or something?
Thanks bro more understanding now I can get a Mercedes Van and Ram Cummins

Ya if you live in the states I just wouldn’t delete your truck
WRONG! 😅
