Does this upgrade have a negative or positive impact on engine life? ( Todd Lucich, 05/02/2021 )

As long as the engine is well maintained, reliability is not affected.

Is the Vehicle Control Module an ECM by another name? If so, is that the unit that sits above the radiator of a 2000 Itasca Suncruiser V32 w/ L29 7.4l (454ci) Vortec? We have a complete Banks Power System and Banks Air Flow. Also, is shipping included both ways? Or if I pay to send in, is the return shipping included in the $495? Thank you.

The terms ECM, PCM, and VCM are all used to describe the engine computer by various manufacturers, yours is located above the radiator . Return shipping is included , you are responsible for shipping to us , however if you choose the "core charge" and order the ECM , we can provide a return shipping label for your core and deduct from the core refund.

im wanting /needing power and torque. as much as possible im going to do a cam exhaust and injectors and intake so my questions are what do you think my gain would be with your pcm and can it be piggy backed with a plug in tuner thanks matt ( Matthew Hammond, 04/15/2021 )

There are a lot of variables that play into the exact gains we can achieve but I would say somewhere around 45-50 HP and 60 Ft Lb. TQ with those modifications done.

would i be able to get a retune if i add a cam after, and what is the turn around time, thanks ( Carl Louis Mueller, 03/26/2021 )

Yes, we can do that. Our typical turn around time is 2-3 business days.

I bought this truck brand new. It is bone stock except for tow mirrors and Kodiak door handles on all 4. I won't change the exhaust or add a ring eating K&N. I like my shift points where they are. I wouldn't mind an EGR delete for the part throttle improvement and a cleaner intake, but mostly I would like to keep everything else functioning, I am looking for more torque below 3,000 rpms, ideally in the 1500-2500 range, because almost all of my driving is in that range. Is there anything to be gained within my parameters? Thank you.

If you are wanting to keep the truck otherwise stock, the tuning would be your best upgrade to boost the performance and it would definitely help the low end where you are wanting it to.
