2020-2023 L5P Duramax 10-Speed Allison Transmission T93 TCM Tuning

The 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023, 2500 and 3500 HD Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra equipped with the L5P Duramax and 10-Speed Allison 10L1000 transmission are known for their smooth shifts and outstanding performance while towing. However, it leaves something to be desired when it comes to shifting in high performance applications. It can fall behind due to its drawn-out shifts and weaker clutch holding strength. Performance focused customers complain about how and when it shifts citing time between shifts and dramatic de-fuel as major areas of concern. Also, the factory tune isn't intuitive. It doesn't drop a gear and go when you want it to and we've found that it can benefit from several improvements. 

DuramaxTuner's Custom TCM tuning will decrease time between shifts and improve clutch holding capacity by increasing line pressure electronically. This will make a more durable, better feeling, and better driving transmission. It can also help keep the engine in the ideal RPM range to utilize all of its potential power. 10-Speed transmission tuning can be utilized with and without a RatioTek shift kit installed.

Changing the factory calibration is especially important when you modifying your truck and/or installing custom ECM Tuning. Custom TCM Tuning gives you quicker shift changes, smoother operation, and a better overall driving experience when increasing your truck's performance.

What’s the difference between Mild and Aggressive Transmission Tuning?

Smooth Shift Points are the best choice if you . . .

• Want a similar feeling shift schedule to stock
• Have a near-stock truck with stock tire size and stock turbo 
• Installed a Box Tuner
• Use your truck as a daily commuter
  
• Want to get the best fuel economy possible

Aggressive/Elevated Shift Points are the best choice for if you...

• Have an upgraded turbocharger
• Run 35”+ size tires
• Prefer higher RPM operation or holding the gear longer
• Installed custom engine (ECM) tuning 

 Why do you need TCM Tuning?

• Works with any ECM Tuning to provide smooth shifting and superior driveability
• Torque converter lockup strategy helps put power to the ground when you need it most
• Improves clutch holding capacity with increased line pressure
• Makes your truck feel more powerful
• Prevents short-shifting in performance applications
• Ensures your engine is operating within its preferred rev range / power band

TCM Tuning is especially important for trucks with:

• Any ECM Tuning, Box Tuner, or Throttle Booster
• Larger tires (35”+)
• Modified turbo(s)
• Built transmission
• Any modification that impacts operating RPMs

Towing & Performance

• Makes full use of the wider torque curve provided by ECM Tuning
• Keeps your truck in its power band when lugging up a grade
• Improved Acceleration - Quicker shifts mean less time between gears and more time putting power to the ground
• Optimizes the benefits of your other aftermarket performance parts
