Can a Performance Chip Damage My Truck’s Transmission?

Truck drivers always search for ways to improve the performance of their vehicles, and that’s why they turn to performance chips. We all know performance chips are game-changers that can make a world of difference to a truck’s torque and horsepower.

Among the many questions that drivers have about performance chips is, “Can a performance chip damage my truck’s transmission?”.

Can a performance chip damage your transmission?

The short answer to this question is a simple no. Although performance chips can increase the machine’s horsepower, they do not damage the engine or transmission in any way. The power added by the chip comes from adjusting the ignition timing and air-to-fuel ratio of your vehicle’s engine. This creates an additional increase in power but is produced harmlessly and without any damage to your car, said experts in the field.

In addition, performance chips are designed with parameters that always keep your car running smoothly and safely. So while you might not want to use them on vehicles with lower mileage, they still won’t cause damage to these cars when used correctly and with careful oversight.

How Performance Chips & Modules Work

Performance chips are an affordable and effective way to get more power out of your engine. Not only do they cause zero harm to your transmission, they often protect it by properly managing the air-to-fuel ratio. If you have a lean running air/fuel ratio, or if your time has gone too far beyond dead center (or positive ignition advance), it can lead to premature combustion. This kind of detonation can damage the engine over time — with a performance chip reducing the chances of detonation, you can drive more confidently, knowing that the problem is under control. In addition, performance chips also provide improved throttle response, increased torque, and power delivery coming from increases in spark and fuel injection timing.

If performance chips are so great, why don’t trucks come with them from the factory?

The simple answer is that when designing a vehicle, automakers must cater to the “average driver.” Consequently, stock calibrations are programmed with safety in mind and set at lower levels, as some people may use poor-quality fuel or not have their vehicles serviced correctly. This could create problems that automakers would rather avoid.

However, if you use higher octane fuel and keep your drive train in tip-top shape – no worn-out oxygen sensors or hoses – then the factory settings are holding you back. You won’t get the maximum performance or efficiency from your engine if you don’t install a performance chip in its onboard computer system. A performance chip unleashes all the horsepower, torque, and efficiency that are right now lost by the factory programming.

5 Things to Know Before Buying a Diesel Performance Module

Are you looking to upgrade your vehicle’s power output? If yes, then you should consider purchasing a diesel performance module (DPM).

The number of vehicles using diesel engines has increased over time. In fact, they account for almost half of all new car sales. Diesel engines produce less pollution compared to gasoline engines. They also offer better fuel economy. Here are 5 things to know before buying a diesel performance module:

1 – They Offer Better Fuel Mileage

If you are looking for better fuel mileage, diesel performance modules are a great solution. With Ag Diesel Solutions products, you can expect to save 1-3 MPG on fuel per hour and get up to 90 more horsepower.

2 – Diesel Performance Modules Do Not Flash the ECM

If you still have a warranty on your truck and you want something that does not flash the ECM or is non-detectable, diesel performance modules are a good solution. The module installs inline between the ECM and either the Fuel Injectors or Fuel Pressure Sensor. The adjustments a module makes are after the ECM signal, therefore nothing is written to the ECM.

3 – They Can Help Improve Your Throttle Response & Drivability

If you are looking to improve your throttle response or drivability down low, diesel performance modules can help improve your throttle response and drivability.

Diesel performance modules are designed to bring in horsepower earlier in your load cycle. This allows your engine to work less during daily driving and makes more of the horsepower available to you right off the throttle. In turn, this gives the ability for the engine to take off more easily and reach normal driving speeds without using much fuel.

4 – It’s Warranty-Friendly

The first question you might have while searching for aftermarket performance products is, “Will this void my manufacturer’s warranty?” The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act makes it so vehicle manufacturers can’t void a warranty based on the mere presence of aftermarket accessories.

Our modules do not leave any fingerprints on your ECM, our modules are installed after the ECM. We do recommend if you take your truck in for warranty work to remove the module.

5 – It Will Not Hurt Your Transmission or Turbo

All Ag Diesel Solutions modules are designed within all the working parts specifications. Our modules do not cause harm to your engine, transmission, or turbo.

Can Diesel Performance Modules Really Save You Money on Fuel?

As diesel fuel continues to be more expensive, you may be wondering if a performance module could help you save money on fuel. The short answer is: yes, it can!

How does it work?

Diesel performance modules are designed to bring in horsepower earlier in your load cycle. This allows your engine to work less during daily driving and makes more of the horsepower available to you right off the throttle. In turn, this gives the ability for the engine to take off more easily and reach normal driving speeds without using much fuel.

A diesel engine is already manufactured to make a ton of horsepower, but most of that power is only available at the higher RPMs of the engine. But, no one drives at those RPMs. Most are controlling your common rail pressure, and this creates more efficient combustion (which also saves fuel). Some modules also control boost and or manifold absolute pressure (or MAP). By adding this extra air into your combustion, you can make the engine run even more efficient, also saving fuel.

How much fuel can I expect to save?

With Ag Diesel Solutions products, you can expect to save 1-3 MPG on fuel per hour and get up to 90 more horsepower.

Is the fuel mileage on the dash accurate or should I figure it at the pump?

We recommend figuring fuel mileage at the pump. The onscreen fuel mileage can sometimes be misleading even in a stock setting.

Will a performance module void any warranties?

Our modules do not leave any fingerprints on your ECM, our modules are installed after the ECM. We do recommend that you take your truck in for warranty work to remove the module.

Are Diesel Performance Modules Safe to Use in my Truck?

If you have been tossing the idea of getting a performance module for your diesel truck, you might be wondering if they are safe to use. The short answer is: yes, modules that are used correctly and manufactured by trusted companies are completely safe to use on your truck.

Whether you have a Ford Powerstroke, Chevy Duramax, or Ram Cummins engine, diesel performance modules can help your engine reach its full potential while increasing total mileage and power. Diesel performance modules will reduce turbo lag and help with a better throttle response that improves drivability and the enjoyment of your diesel truck.

Diesel modules have been produced since the late 1990s, and with few exceptions, none of these have hurt components on a truck. With that being said, we do not recommend stacking modules, as the gained output may not be tested or verified to make sure it is safe on your diesel engine or truck.

Most diesel modules are raising the common fuel rail pressure to increase efficiency and performance. As long as they don’t raise it past the factory’s specifications of the fuel system manufacturer, you will not see any reduction in the fuel system or engine life.

What Diesel Performance Modules Do

A diesel performance module adjusts the pressure of the fuel injection into the combustion chamber to optimize the combustion process. This increases the efficiency of the diesel engine.

Performance modules give you more low-end power and torque while improving gas mileage. Most diesel performance modules are designed to work with every emission component on the vehicle.

Because modern vehicles are increasingly controlled by computers, a module gives you the ability to make changes to the truck’s operation without having to replace physical components or reprogramming the truck’s computer.

Removing analog systems and going completely digital has allowed diesel programming teams an incredible amount of leeway in terms of how they could make your truck run. Modules are used to improve performance in ways that are beneficial for everyday driving or to tow.

What to Look for When Buying a Diesel Performance Module

Diesel performance modules from a company that dyno tests and performance tests their modules are completely safe and should not hurt any components on your engine. Make sure your performance module comes from a company that checks all the parameters and dyno tests their modules to ensure none of the engine parameters go past the factory specifications.
