Duramax Power Enhancer

Quick poll for the Duramax guys...

Unfortunately, your poll does not include all possible answers. You need to add "Yes and I am aware my power adder does not necessarily affect warranty coverage."

Most all chips and performance packages that I have researched say in bold letters "Does not void factory warranty". Although I have heard of Allisons going into limp mode from being overtorqued and I am sure that is cause for a warranty void on the tranny should any damage be done. Edge is just "jumpered" in on the main harness and can be removed if any warranty service needs to be done. I am sure these aftermarket companies work in conjunction with automakers to be within certain limits of the warranty coverage. After all who would enhance their DMax with a performance chip knowing it could damage a motor with a 100k mile warranty on it. To big of a risk in my book.

I added "bluenotes" option and voted for it...

 

I have the EdgeEZ System on my truck and it can easily be removed when the truck is in for service.

Edge Juice and Quadzilla on my Dmax. Nothing on my Power Stroke. Ford's just too good at finding aftermarket mods like these. GM, on the other hand, hasn't been able to detect anything.

So, tell me exactly what limp mode is?

Additional stress when the torque converter clutch is engaged. If this happens the power train sets fault codes and enters limp mode to protect itself. When the torque converter clutch is engaged, fifth gear on the Allison transmission will hold about 680 foot pounds of torque before slipping. Anything over can cause the limp. The more you limp, the less it takes to do it again.

 

 

Lock it out of 5th and you will be fine with any of the normal tunes Juice offers.

yes, technically my warrantee is still intact...but I will never take my truck to the dealer unless its something HUGE.

 

I dont know what they would say when they see the big aftermarket spinny-thing tho...

[dogzapper]

No need with the LBZ engine; surely 650 pound/feet of torque is enough.

 

Frankly, my truck isn't broke and I'm not going to mod it until it is.

What is "bluenotes" option?

[BlackSilver]

Mine is bone-stock, and quite honestly I haven't come up with any good reason to farkle around with it. After 115,000 miles of use, including about 25% of that pulling significant loads (7-ton trailer cross-country including 10,000' mountain passes), the truck has always had power in excess of my needs.

 

My mindset is "the engineers at GM got this one right --- I ain't gonna try to second guess them."
