Looking for program

[ccs68ex]

Does anyone know where i can get hold of the detroit program and connector to turn my truck up? Or is there another way anyone knows to do it? thanks....

If it your truck take it to a shop and have it done. If it a company truck I would not touch it. Many more will tell you the same.

right now it belongs to the company hwever i am about to buy it. i want it turned up if i can as easy as i can first off. right now it's 68. but in the long run i would like to be able to set all the paramiters (sp) myself.

Most truck or engine dealers can turn it up for you. I don't recall whether Detroit will allow you to have the program, but I know CAT has a handheld unit you can buy for about $700. It seems to me as though it would be less expensive to just pay a dealer to turn it up for you than go to the expense of buying the programming or computer to do the job.

if it's a company truck, any ability to make changes is quite likely password protected

detroit allows some hp change under engine parameters. it can be changed by any shop with a pro-link scanner and ddec cartridge

to increase hp beyond the original limit, a programming station is required; ddc or freightliner dealer

it's not feasible to buy hardware/software unless you have a decent size fleet... imo

ok thanks for the replys folks. i will just run it by the shop and have them do it.

If you're still under warranty it's possible it can be anulled(sp)

I am lost do you want the top speed turned up or the horsepower? On each perameter there are a few choices for each but the engine manufacturer only lets you go so far each way. You can't get a 475 horse cat to put out 600. I tried
