I am a retired mechanic with 40 years of on the job experience. I was an ASE Certified Advanced Level Master Technician with a CA Smog License. I was also certified in several areas of Medium Duty Trucks through ASE. That said I enjoy watching what you do and learn. What attracts me is your honesty and pointing out the pitfalls to your hobby and passion. There is not a prefect world here, problems will happen. Although I am a big fan of leaving my 2021 3500HD L5P alone and simply driving and maintaining it, I respect you for your willingness to spend a lot of time and money experimenting and learning. I am concerned about the 10 speeds longevity and what effects (if any) that over fueling may have on the engines life. This is another reason I watch your channel so please continue to show both the good and the bad and above all stay safe.

40 years of experience, and you should know by now that all egr and DEF systems are better for the engine when they’re relocated to the scrap yard

JW, I am in DFW, Got a 2001 LB7 that is modded AF. I installed a 4 core aluminum radiator and instead of installing the clutch fan back on it, I took a spare and cut the nut off of the fan so I could retain the belt pulley and just installed a brushless dual electric fan. The original single core ran pretty cool but after I installed a Wagler AFO stage 1 cam, dual cp3's, new bosch injectors with 45% over nozzles, billet turbo, and a fluid damper harmonic balancer..... she revs much faster and smoother so I wanted the clutch fan to not drag down the rpm. Tranny took about $7k to keep it from slipping. Motor has about $18K parts and labor. She gets down but needs work on traction, its 2wd bone stock even tires and rims. Looks like a pretty clean, bone stock 2001 until you set the tune on 5 and nail it. I have surprised many a camaro, mustang , and charger.

The growl is deeper just a bit louder. The mts on the truck dont help. Intake might help with that.

I’m looking to put tow mirrors on my 2018 GMC 5.3 Sierra SLT. Can you suggest where I can get them and have them installed in the Buford Ga. Area?

Same thing happened to me when i bought my 2017 l5p after 6 years is finally getting deleted and tune and its crazy expensive

What brand plug is that. Can’t seem to find it online anywhere and there are to many to chose from.

I have and first gen l5p and I put on a Gale Banks Big ass air filter, not only does it give more air but I here turbo, everything else is stock, for now. The air box helps me pull my 50 foot toy hauler a little bit easier too.

I ordered one a week n half ago, got it quick. Really gives it a deeper growl when you smash the skinny pedal. Happy with my purchase. Easy install with a 8mm socket and impact on low.

The credits are applied to the MPVI2 used to install the tunes into the ECM. When you tune your L5P make sure you buy your own MPVI2. If the installer used his own MPVI2 only he can make changes since the credits for your VIN are locked to his MPVI2.

@@JWMontoya from what I understand, the credits are assigned to your MPVI2 serial number and the VIN of your truck. When you get a new ECM, you need to use the MPVI2 your credits are on to register the ECM to your VIN. Once the VIN and MPVI2 are in line each other again tunes should be interchangeable as they were before. Did your buddy have his own MPVI2 with his original credits applied or did he purchase one afterwards to get the second round of credits applied to it?

buy the HP turner hardware and tune it yourself. I did my own corvette c7. Some reading and a couple of hours on KZread got my car running better than new and more power. There is a lot you can do besides just adding fuel to get a good tune. Buy a wide band O2 sensor and do real world highway pulls. Easy. Don't need a dyno. Sadly, tuner shops are just chasing that $$$. They simply throw as much fuel as possible so they can please the gullible 'more hp is everything' guy.
