Need A Tuner For Your Cummins? Have You Checked EFILive Lately?

As our engines become more and more “modern,” they actually are becoming powerful. Unfortunately, with the emissions regulations that has hit our industry over the past 7 years, a lot of that power may be disguised or hidden. But make no mistake, that as more sensors are plugged into the engine and the ECU’s are monitoring more things, the original equipment manufacturers are watching more things to be able to take the engines further than they have before.

Innovative Diesel's '06 Dodge is a perfect example of having power but yet is very streetable. This is a 10 second truck that can be detuned and still is able to plow during the winter.

Great, more sensors and electronics to go bad right? Well, there are certainly two sides to that coin. On side is certainly the cost of components and the sensitivity and degradation of the wiring and connectors over the years. But the other side of the coin is the performance world. Today, it is very common to have 600, 800, heck we are seeing a number of 1,000 horsepower trucks as daily drivers or at least could be daily drivers. With the old days of the mechanical systems, huge horsepower usually meant less driveability, but with the modern engines, driveability is still quite manageable.

One of the key ways that is possible is by having different levels of tuning available. When it comes to the world of tuning, it is hard not to mention EFILive. EFILive tuning has dominated the Chevrolet and GMC world with the overwhelming control tuners have when tuning the Duramax engines. EFILive is a major contributor to the Duramax’s success over the past few years. But, did you know they offer tuning for other platforms as well?

EFilive_Flashscan-DodgeEFILive, also, has tuning for the 2006 to 2007 5.9L Cummins powered trucks as well as the 2007 to 2009 6.7L Cummins powered RAMS. The tuning for the ‘06-’07 is becoming so popular that the ’06 and ’07 trucks are starting to run a premium. We know a number of people that when looking for a vehicle, they are seeking out these particular model years just because of the tuning EFILive offers.

While the Dodge computer systems aren’t as complex as the GM computer systems, the EFILive tuners still have a lot of control over the engines. They are able to tweak the fuel, timing and max RPM with extreme precision. In addition, the system, also, works with a CSP5 switch. So, you can have custom tuning written for your truck, but also, change tuning on the go like a module.
