2020 Ram 2500 Cummins/68RFE

[Rgpracer]

Well, I'm already pretty flustered with the way my truck shifts with the 68RFE tranny.
I am trying to resolve the issue by going with a Ram 3500 w/Cummins HO with the Aisin tranny or trading for a Duramax in a Chevy/GMC with the Allison 10 speed. One of our fellow members said he to was disgusted with the tranny shifting causing him to look for a tuning kit. He went with Calibrated Power Duramax tuner. He says that it make night and day difference in the shifting characteristics of the 68RFE.

I called Calibrates Power and they told me the same thing. I love the power of my Cummins, pulls my 303 quite well.

Has anyone used the Duramax tuner in there truck and if so, would you give me some feedback on your application?
Has anyone tried a different one with good results?

2019-2021 GMC/Chevy 2500/3500's are hard to come by right now......hoping the tuner might do the trick.

Thanks for input.

There is a whole thread on Calibrated Power Tunes.

Calibrated Power tune 2020 2500 cummins

Been running the Calibrated Power tunes on my truck for about 3k miles. The tunes are great and I highly recommend it. I keep mine in the sport tune with elevated shifts points. Makes the truck a joy to drive and it's always in the right gear. Will be pulling my 5th on the 1st of January and...

Just FYI, the new 10 speed Allison isn’t really an Allison, it’s a Ford/GM tranny made in house. They are paying tons of money to Allison to keep putting that Allison banging on those trucks.
I read a lot of horror stories about that 10 speed on both brands Fords and GMs.
I’d recommend getting the HO with the Aisin.

If you are that unhappy with the shifting of the 68 a tuner is Not going to make you happy. It can make an improvement but it will never be a 10 (or 8) speed. On top of that you are voiding you warranty so keep that in mind.

I was curious what you don't like about the trans? I've had 4 HD's with the 68RFE, and all have performed just fine.
