PPEI Ez Lynk Update

Bullet 21 · Jul 9, 2016

Spent the weekend in Nashville, TN with my Wife. I have to say that I absolutely love the new tunes. The shifts are spot on, the truck runs amazing as well. It smokes a bit before the 363sx-e lights, but once lit it clears up and runs very well.

My truck has the 3.31 gears with 18" wheels and stock 33" tires.

I filled up in Nashville on the way home, drove 148 miles back to Paducah, KY @ 73-74 and it took 6.9 gallons to fill.......21.449 mpg on the Performance Tune.

I am very happy with the results! Not to mention how smooth it is.

Thanks for the update on this! Can't decide whether to get this or ******* ndash?! Like the idea of being able to switch tuners, but I like the OST coming for the ndash. Awesome mpg, though!

Tunes are by Kory Willis at PPEI.

I never expected to see 21, the dash showed 21.6 and the calculator showed 21.449. Going down I filled up in Cadiz, KY and drove straight to downtown Nashville. We drove in stop and go traffic in and around downtown Friday night and Saturday, when we left Saturday evening I stopped just out side of Nashville on 24 and topped off....that tank calculated at 18.5 with all the stop and go.

To say that I am extremely pleased is an understatement. The truck is smooth and pulls hard.

EzLynk (Auto Agent) is the newest tuning device that has shift on the fly capabilities. Ppei is the tuning company, aka Kory Willis.

Were you running different tunes prior to this? If so which ones? I am running GH and haven't been entirely enthused with the trans tunes. Best mpg I can pull is 18. I have 2011 f250 c/c W/ stock 18" wheels, 3:31, exhaust, intake. Does the upgraded turbo make that big of a difference?

Glad to hear Kory has his non VGT stuff dialed in so well! warms my heart up a bit

It sounds like our trucks are pretty similar, mine is a 2011 F250 CCSB 4x4 w/ 3.31's on stock 18" wheels and tires.

I was running GH tunes on SCT with 5" Flopro prior to swapping to the Ez Lynk. The trans tuning sucked and they didn't want to tune out the hiss at idle from the stock turbo. I was in the process of having the GH tunes updated for the new turbo and supporting mods when the Ez Lynk was released, at that time I ask Mike to cancel the GH tune update and I paid the difference to go with the Ez Lynk....that was the best decision ive ever made....Korys tuning is spot on, the trans is smooth, and the truck drives much like a stock truck until you push your foot through the floor....then all hell breaks loose :rockon:

There is a little lag, but very minimal. It'll smoke a little before the turbo lights but cleans up very nice.

Wonder what the difference is between vgt and non? It does sound like our trucks are very similar.

Kenz · Jul 11, 2016

Just thinking about it. Luke at NL about a month ago sent me a tune to try to help the trans. It was labeled non vgt 3:31, wonder if that was the tune they were working on for you? Does somewhat help the trans shift, but what your saying has me thinking about switching.

ImAti0n · Jul 11, 2016

I too would love to try it out, but after getting rid of GH I picked up Cales tunes and they've been nothing but amazing. I can't justify switching over to the Ez lynk.
