I am a new owner 2019 duramax. I was thinking of getting a Banks Derringer tuner for it. But I've heard that it cannot be used unless you do the full ecm swap is this true? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm good at pushing the pedal. Thank youThe monster pedal does nothing but rescale your throttle so at 10% throttle, you have 20% commanded by the ecm.
Literally does nothing else for more power or let you unlock any other additional things.
Push the throttle harder, does the same shit
Agreed, it adds zero to power level, however it does eliminate the dead pedal when pulling onto a highway. I used to have to wait for a few seconds when flooring it to merge into interstate traffic (45-70 mph). With the boost in throttle, that dead pause between hitting the throttle and response by the engine was removed. To me, it was worth the better response but hey...YMMV. Just personal preference.The monster pedal does nothing but rescale your throttle so at 10% throttle, you have 20% commanded by the ecm.

So sorry to hear things didn't go as planned. I would just call Banks and ask them since it is their product. Anything can be made with a defect and this may already be something they are aware of. It may save you some time trying to figure it out ??There customer service is pretty good and although I have only ever used Banks products on this L5P, they have performed exactly as advertised.Another question. I just installed the i dash derringer today and truck went to reduced power mode and threw multiple codes 0191,00E6,0108,0193,0335,127d. Erased with my obd scan tool and they came back after a few miles. Had no power that whole time WTH
Unplugged everything and it still has the codes after erasing them. Any ideas? Did i do something wrong? Thanks all.
