Dynamic Performance Upgrades: Experience a transformation in your truck's performance. Our tuning enhances throttle response, boosts acceleration, minimizes turbo lag, and refines overall engine efficiency. It's not just about power; it's about a smoother, more responsive journey.

Efficiency Redefined: PPEI is committed to efficiency. Our Engine Calibrations are meticulously engineered to reduce excessive fuel consumption, ensuring a more fuel-efficient drive without compromising on performance.

Towing Made Easy: Transform your truck into a towing powerhouse. The LB7 Duramax Engine Calibrations optimize your truck's ability to tow, making heavy loads feel effortless.

Optimal Pairing: For the ultimate experience, pair our Engine Calibration with PPEI's Transmission Calibration. This combination guarantees peak performance in both engine and transmission tuning, ensuring seamless gear shifts and eliminating gear hunting, especially under towing conditions.

Transmission Considerations:

For Stock Transmissions: We offer varied power levels, but recommend not exceeding an additional 120 HP to avoid premature transmission failure. Available levels are:

Level 1: +15 HP
Level 2: +30 HP
Level 3: +60 HP
Level 4: +100 HP
Level 5: +120 HP

For Built Transmissions: Unleash greater power with levels designed for enhanced transmissions:

Level 1: +30 HP
Level 2: +60 HP
Level 3: +100 HP
Level 4: +160 HP
Level 5: +230 HP

Experience the Difference: Choose PPEI's Engine Calibration for your 2001 - 2004 LB7 Duramax and transform your truck into a more powerful, efficient, and responsive vehicle. It's not just an upgrade; it's redefining the limits of your truck and driving experience.

Installation & Compatibility: Easy installation with EFILive Hardware & Software. Compatible with EFILive AutoCal V2/V3 & EFILive FlashScan V2/V3, ensuring a smooth and straightforward tuning process.

The PPEI stock trans engine calibrations are designed specifically for trucks that are utilizing a stock transmission to ensure the user can't push the vehicle beyond limitations of the stock transmission. These calibrations are engineered to provide you the most efficient power and performance without exceeding the threshold of efficiency while maintaining reliability. PPEI has thoroughly tested and refined each power level to give you the best tuning in the world for your Duramax. The PPEI built trans engine calibrations follow the same idea with the exception that the built trans engine calibrations are designed only for trucks with upgraded or modified transmissions allowing the truck to support more power safely.

Power Level 1: Economy +15/30 RWHP

This power level is designed to reduce lag and improve throttle response for optimal efficiency.

Power Level 2: Heavy Tow +30/60 RWHP

This power level is designed for towing anything over 15,000 lbs. Do not use any power level higher than power level 2 for towing loads that exceed 15k lbs as this will surpass the stock engine and stock transmissions threshold of efficiency which increases the chance of mechanical failure and decreases overall reliability of your vehicle.

Power Level 3: All Purpose +60/100 RWHP

This power level is designed for towing anything under 15,000 lbs or daily driving. This power level is what we at PPEI recommend for everyday use as it boost overall all performance while retaining reliability.

Power Level 4: Street +100/160 RWHP

This power level is designed for daily driving but has a little spice to make things interesting while keeping your Duramax safe and reliable without pushing the factory components beyond their abilities. The street calibration packs a punch that it doesn't come with from the factory. This calibration is not intended to be used for towing as it could surpass the threshold of efficiency.

Power Level 5: Performance +120/230 RWHP

This power levels development process specifically derived for the purpose of giving you a wow sensation when you press the peddle. Obviously, the wow-factor doesn’t exist from the factory as the LB7 is kind of boring and rightfully so. At PPEI, we thoroughly enjoy pushing vehicles to their limits and finding the weak link, which is why the aftermarket industry for hard parts exists. Without knowing the weak link, the automotive performance industry would be throwing darts blindfolded. This calibration is specifically designed to be used a ¼ mile at a time. PPEI highly recommends that you do not tow at all or daily drive in this calibration as it pushes the limits surpassing the efficiency threshold of the factory components.

Air Filtration and why it is necessary to upgrade your stock air filtration system

PPEI Recommends the Banks Ram-Air System as it outflows the stock intake design by 57% while inhaling cold air and lowering Intake Air Temps, reducing EGTs and minimizing soot output, making for the most efficient air filtration system available. Black smoke or soot is a visual representation of loss of power or wasted HP as the engine is not efficiently burning the fuel. By installing the Banks Power Ram-Air System, you are only improving the overall efficiency of your engine while extending the engine’s life and enhancing your fuel efficiency at the same time. Black smoke = wasted power and inefficient tuning. Here is a list of benefits when using the Banks Ram-Air Cold Air Intake System

Enclosed housing keeps out hot, power-robbing engine air
Inhales cooler outside air for more power & MPG
Optional Super-Scoop rams cold air for more power
Extends service life and requires fewer cleanings
Reduces exhaust gas temps (EGTs) and smoke
Outflows stock and competitors up to 57%
Giant filter maximizes high-flow filtration

Accommodates engine movement
Extensively tested & validated
Prevents component damage
5-year Limited Warranty
OILED Air Filter Element
Helps engine run cooler

Fuel Filtration Upgrades and why it is so important for the LB7 Duramax

PPEI also specifically recommends FASS Fuel Systems for all PPEI Tuned application, especially the 6.6L Duramax platform. A stock Duramax doesn’t come equipped with a lift pump (a fuel pump that assist fuel from the tank to the injection pump). The Duramax engine relies solely on the injection pump to pull fuel from the tank and supply that same fuel to the injectors causing it to do more work creating unnecessary stress on the CP3 injection pump. FASS which stands for Fuel Air Separation System includes the following benefits:
