Caleb Broege thanks for the kind words👍

@@robsdiesel2470 hey Rob! Any opinions on motor ops?

[@leesavoie979]

Appreciate you doing this man… new to the diesel world anxious to see how everything comes out. I’m currently running ppei but from hearing all the things on fb was thinking of maybe switching to Danville or ridge runner don’t do any racing more interested in mpg

[@owenspalding971]

uS is microseconds. 1 microsecond is 1x10^6 seconds so the ignition delay shown in this video is 2.367 milliseconds. That is the amount of time that passes between the start of injection and the start of ignition.

[@robsdiesel2470]

thank you very much for the correction!!

[@ToXSicK1340]

Great Info here..... Love these Video's!!! Thank You.

[@gobigorgohomeproductions458]

I’m running motor oops. Love it. And customer service is great!

I like them, too. 2013 LML long bed 4x4.

[@professionalredneck8444]

Hey bud Love your videos, cant wait to see new videos in the summer of tunes, you should do ppe, I know its not efi live but Id like to see how they do compared to the efi live, also think its a good idea to put a ppe xcelerator tuner on my 430k lb7 duramax? Im going to be putting a new set of reman injectors and a 5 inch exhaust. haha probably not the best idea ive had but would like more power and cant really afford the ppei tuners when they are 700 bucks compared to $400 ppe tuner.

[@davesperformance88]

Your going to have some tuners mad at you 😆 I been a tuner for 9 years now i quit at 3000us and 28° of timing stock cp3 25,000 fuel rail on lb7-lly anything over that is heat in the piston 30° or higher timing will make 5 more horsepower same goes for pulse-width anything over 3000us more heat you mite see a max of 15 horsepower why hurt the motor.

[@robsdiesel2470]

Lol haven’t had anyone angry yet but ya I stop at 2850us

[@megastick9324]

Isn’t that micro seconds? Just asking, never heard of ultras seconds and the “ u” usually means micro.

[@robsdiesel2470]

Yes you are correct.

[@That2strokeRider]

Nice man I'm getting a long bed crew cab lbz soon and am wondering which tuner to go with,also I live in california I might put a HD clutch and a few transmission mods in but want to stay stock what would you recomend?

[@robsdiesel2470]

Moto is life69 if your staying stock fuel and air and you have a manual then just about all the tuners will feel the same.

[@That2strokeRider]

@@robsdiesel2470 well I'm going to be rebuilding the engine I didn't mention it has 500k miles on it and needs injectors I was thinking of putting some larger injectors in and maybe a bigger turbo also does ppei smoke a lot on just Daily driving without wot? I don't really care about smoke just wondering though,also you should try duramaxtuner spade jack or spade king next when the weathers good

[@robsdiesel2470]

Moto is life69 keeping trans stock?

[@That2strokeRider]

@@robsdiesel2470 idk it depends on how much it costs I'll probably rebuild the transmission,because at the end of the day the truck has 500k miles so it's going to be wore out a heavy duty rebuild kit won't be much more then a stock rebuild kit so probably going to rebuild it I'm getting it for cheap that's why I'm buying it otherwise I would buy something with less miles but hey I'm a mechanic so I can do it. My plans are rebuilt transmission,hone the cylinder,put a set of rings in it maybe pistons not sure,ppei tune or duramaxtuner spade tuner,5 inch straight piped, mud terrain tires on stock wheels maybe a lift,also the power windows don't work so that's also other thing to fix it'll probably cost 4k at the least total not including the truck so probably 5k but still cheaper than a duramax from Craigslist with 200k miles I looked at them they cost anywhere from 8 at the least to 15k next build will be a powerstroke 6.0 but for right now I don't got the money so duramax nice videos btw looking forward to more I subbed.

[@alexanderstein5379]

How can I get tunes ? Like that ? On a 2006 LBZ ( LLY)

[@davesperformance88]

You forgot 1 tuner Ridge Runner diesel lol i like your videos

[@robsdiesel2470]

dave williams lol Still plan on getting some tunes from them.

[@maylaforcebewithu]

What spacer/adapter are you using to run those 8x180 wheels?

[@robsdiesel2470]

Some cheap ones I got with the wheels

[@rc4x4crawler]

You say that the ppei tunes shift great. When you purchased the ppei tuning, did you also purchase the tcm tuning?

[@robsdiesel2470]

rc4x4crawler no I used the factory trans tune for all the tuners. Changing the torque tables in the engine ECU changes how it defuels and how fast the trans shifts. All the tuners made my truck shift so different. I could tell a difference on how fast the trans would go from slow shifts on mileage tests to fast crisp shift on wife open pulls

[@rc4x4crawler]

Rob’s Diesel that is good info to know. What do you think a tcm tune would help improve?

[@robsdiesel2470]

rc4x4crawler changing shift points is the biggest reason for trans tunes.#1 I recommend it if you have big turbo setups, you can raise part throttle shift points to stay on top of charger and also lower throttle position required to downshift to keep from smoking out the road. #2 changing shift strategy is important for big tires #3 changing shift points for built motors that want to shift at 5,000+ RPMs, stock pumps don’t flow very well over 3500 rpms, so for my stock fueled truck I keep the shift points stock

[@rc4x4crawler]

Rob’s Diesel Okay makes sense I see why you didn’t do it for your setup then. Thanks for the info.

[@Snowracer88]

I really wanna stick with ppei, all I have is there 60hp tow tune, but seems like they run more timing and have higher egt’s then the other guys, truck has 180k and wanna be able to go another 200k without internal issues

[@robsdiesel2470]

Snowracer88 your right foot will determine how long it will last more so then tunes unless you get really bad tunes lol

[@lsx434]

good work , and you have monster truck

[@duramaxguy74]

Have you ever compared boost psi from mechanical gage to ur edge monitor? I just go by my edge, just curious how accurate it is.

[@robsdiesel2470]

Dmax guy Lynn Strayer they are very close. Max PSI on monitor will only go to 25 psi because that’s all the stock sensor will read tho

[@macanic21]

I believe the injector pulse width is micro seconds. The little u is typically micro. m is milli so mSec is millisecond which is .001, u is micro so one uSec is .000001 second. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsecond

[@robsdiesel2470]

Thanks for the correction! I will do some research and maybe look a little smarter on the next video 👍

[@saltysteel3996]

uS is microseconds. Not ultraseconds.

[@DormantIdeasNIQ]

HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU ARE NOT OVERTUNING beyond the TRANSMISSION specs!?!? Will this thing work with a Chevrolet Express 4500 cutaway Duramax LGH (2010/2011) ? as in see everything and allow to tune everything! note: LGH is the detuned version of the LML

[@NickySull]

Does your lbz haze at idle?

[@robsdiesel2470]

Not at all

@@robsdiesel2470 mine does for some reason lol, one guy told be to get a new watertemp sensor and solder a new plug on too and said that fixed his haze

[@2005llyduramax]

You must not have done the down pipe and y-bridge. I'm running ppei and I've got full intake and exhaust mods just to open it all up, I'm lucky to hit 1300° egt full throttle, I've got a video if you check it out, I've got y-bridge, egr delete, s&b intake, bd full bore drivers manifold, mbrp downpipe, 4in turbo back with resonator,

[@robsdiesel2470]

2005llyduramax are you running max effort? Have you data logged to check timing and pw?

[@2005llyduramax]

@@robsdiesel2470 I have run the max effort tune. I haven't data logged anything, I daily drive the 120hp tune, but I am lucky to ever hit 1300° at around 30psi when sending it,

[@robsdiesel2470]

2005llyduramax i do have a down pipe. All 3” intercooler piping except stock y bridge. After market y bridge dose not flow a lot more, and you don’t need manifolds and up pipes till 8-900 hp. Duramax like heat, 1800° is fine for a couple seconds.

[@2005llyduramax]

@@robsdiesel2470 I just dont understand how your truck lighter than mine, can be running significantly hotter than mine running the same 5 tunes from ppei, and almost the same mods, something is off,

[@robsdiesel2470]

2005llyduramax is your probe in the manifold? About all the trucks I’ve tuned or driven have been about the same as mine

[@toolitlive6011]

[@mbdiesel]

Are you running Tcm tuning along with ecm?

[@robsdiesel2470]

Myles Brady no all these videos were with stock trans tuning. No point in trans tuning unless you have a big single turbo or bigger then 35” tire without regearing IMO
