Transmission Tuning

The 6-Speed Allison found in your 2017-2019 L5P Duramax earned its reputation for excellence largely because of the advanced electronic control provided by the TCM (Transmission Control Module). Changing that factory calibration is especially important for you when you modify your truck and/or install ECM Tuning. Custom TCM Tuning gives you quicker shift changes, smoother operation, and an overall better driving experience.

What’s the difference between Mild and Aggressive Transmission Tuning?

Smooth Shift Points is the best choice for you if you . . .

  1. Want similar feeling to stock shift schedule
  2. Have a near-stock truck
  3. Installed a Box Tuner
  4. Are an “Everyday Diesel Guy”
  5. Use your truck as a daily commuter

Aggressive/Elevated Shift Points is the best choice for you if you . . .

  1. Have an upgraded turbocharger
  2. Run 35”+ size tires
  3. Prefer higher RPM operation or holding the gear longer
  4. Installed custom engine tuning

 

Why do you need TCM Tuning?

  • Works with any ECM Tuning to provide smooth shifting and superior drive-ability
  • Torque converter lockup strategy helps you put power to the ground when you need it the most
  • Improve clutch holding capacity with increased line pressure
  • Makes your truck feel more powerful
  • Prevents short-shifting in performance applications
  • TCM Tuning is the best tool to ensure your engine is operating within its preferred rev range

TCM Tuning is especially important for trucks with:

  • Any ECM Tuning, Box Tuner, or Throttle booster
  • Larger tires (35”+)
  • Modified turbo(s)
  • Built transmission
  • Any modification that impacts operating RPMs

Towing & Performance

  • Use the wider torque curve provided by ECM Tuning
  • Keep your truck in its power band when lugging up a grade
  • Quicker shifts mean less time between gears and more time putting power to the ground
  • Optimize your aftermarket performance parts
