This number is also what the most shops use to determine what power settings, or so called 'Calibrations' that can be put into the engine. The CPL number, or Critical Parts List, is the number that is used to identify the actual hardware inside the engine itself. The "engine" part can be determined easily enough by looking at your engine cover data-plate. To do it right, someone needs to know what hardware you actually have AND what make/model vehicle. There are however limitations based on what hardware you actually have in your engine.
This means that it is usually possible to increase or decrease the horsepower by quite a little bit without too many ill-effects. The engine itself has a vast amount of adjustment range. To understand how they do it, one must understand a little more about the engine and its programming. Most all of them really are clueless about the details of the different programs available for these engines, so it is left up to to you, the truck owner, to educate yourself enough not to end up with problems. To prevent ending up like so many I have met that had problems, you need to know a few things before running off to a shop or dealer. ( All the things I just mentioned above can sometimes happen even within the same engine rating and same CPL program listed in Insite ).
Even worse, your fuel mileage ending up lower simply due to other incorrect settings for you make/model truck.
#OLD VERSION CUMMINS INSITE FULL FULL#
This is because the new adjustments may throw the engine in a silent derate, or starving it of proper fuel quantities, holding it back from its full potential. It is also possible that you may end up with more horse-power capacity in your engine, but never really see it. This easily causes response and engine efficiency/fuel mileage and/or excess soot problems. * Many times, you may just end up with a program that was means for a smaller Charge Air cooler, and your truck has a larger one, or the other way around. Or, you may have an Auto-shift tranny, and end up with a program that is not meant for it. * You may get a different HP rating, but end up with a program meant for an Auto-shift transmission or some other application that causes the torque curve to suffer. I have seen many people with premature engine failures simply because they put in one of these programs not knowing that is what it was meant for, or trying to circumvent emissions issues. It is meant for vehicles that only make short, demanding trips with no regard for its harshness on the engine. Emergency vehicle programming is extremely harmful and very harsh on highway engines actually. * Inadvertently installing emergency vehicle programming. * Issues with injectors, fuel-air-mix, detonation problems, injection timing anomalies, and a lot of other minor to medium problems that lead to premature failures and/or engine inefficiencies. * Issues with the wrong air-flow tables for a different model and make truck that cause fuel mileage loss or other problems. * Harmful to your turbo or other components if they get it wrong. minor to major issues with your EGR, DPF / After-treatment system if it is still active and being used. I am not talking so much about wearing things out faster, but rather causing some problems like. The reason for this is that believe it or not, there is a 70% chance you can end up with problems with your engine and/or your truck afterwards. As a truck owner, you really need to understand a little bit about how its done before running off to a shop. When it comes to the ISX engine, there seems to be countless shops and dealers that are all to eager to take a few hundred bucks out of your wallet to 'Turn Up The Horse Power'. Lets face it, Almost everyone wants more power from their truck. Increasing Horse-Power - What You Really, Really Need To Know.
