I just got a 2022 zr2 and I’m eager to tune this baby. Has anyone used these guys tunes I’m having a hard time finding anything for 2022?
I’m planning just to tune for now, but Sasquatch hoses and catch can and eventually exhaust but I don’t know how hard it will be to get that as I’m stateside.

They have tunes for 2019 and newer but you can not switch on the fly. You need to stop and reprogram from current tune to the next. They informed me this takes about 5 to 10 minutes between tunes. So if you want multiple tunes this is the only way for now.

I just copied what was on their site.. Ill be going another route as I really dont care about switching on the fly .. one and done will work just fine for me.

Why do they sell the dsp switch than?

...because it works with pre-2019 trucks and they have all options for all years stuffed on one page with very few details about what works with which years.

Personally, I wouldn't use their tuning. Who knows how good or reliable it is, what kind of support they have, how long they'll be around for, etc. They didn't exist prior to Oct 2021, who runs the company? Who is actually making the tunes? What experience do they have?

A lot of questions that their site doesn't answer. Super sketchy, IMO.

What are the options for a full delete tune on a 2022? I’m seeing very little options?

AFAIK, there are none. The popular Canadian option disappeared overnight, there are no more well-known, quality delete tune resources, let alone for a 2022. I wouldn't plan on doing the deletes anytime soon.

my thought are one of those companies that disappeared overnight rebranded themselves under a new name but with a lot less info so the govt can’t go after them. They look like a rebranded business not a starter up. They told me they are in trials with the tune on 2022.

Why would the Canadian govt go after them? They aren't violating any laws in Canada related to emissions, the only reason a certain company would have to disappear and come back as some new, unknown company is if the rumors about them illegally selling another company's tunes were true and they're trying to avoid prosecution. The US govt has no jurisdiction in Canada so the EPA can't do a thing about what a company in Canada is doing short of confiscating defeat devices as they cross the border into the US.

It's your truck, but I wouldn't risk an expensive engine on a tune of an unknown quality. As soon as you tune your powertrain warranty goes out the window, your engine takes a crap and it's coming out of your wallet to fix it. Are you willing to take that chance?

All day! these motors aren’t built for the emissions crap the epa forced on them. Likely why gm discontinued them after 2022. Look at the intakes on these motors that aren’t tuned and the egr has ruined them. This baby is getting tuned and deleted just have to see who wants to do it. I wouldn’t buy a modern diesel(post 2005) If wasn’t going to tune it. If the motor pops I’ll buy a new one lol.

What modern diesels weren't built for is short trips and city driving. The people with emissions issues are the ones that don't put the miles behind them and work the engine. There are countless emissions-intact diesels on the road with hundreds of thousands of miles on the stock emissions and no issues because they are driven properly. My truck is no different other than I'm only at 76k miles so far. I ran a deleted 6.7 Cummins for a while, and I ran my Canyon with a cleaner intact-tune but I didn't trust it. The engine actually ran better with the stock tune. I clean the MAP regularly as well.

I've owned diesels for decades, you actually have a higher chance for issues if you tune it, delete or not. I wish you luck, but I fear you lept before you looked.

To each his own, just don’t look inside the intake on your truck or you might not believe what your telling me. Or just check YouTube if you want to see what the egr function has done to your motor.

You act like I don't know. I'm well aware, my point is that while it may not look good visually, mechanically these and other modern diesels are still running just fine. Would I prefer there to be no EGR or related soot? Absolutely. However, the act of seeing soot doesn't magically trigger problems. My truck still runs perfectly fine, great fuel economy, no issues with reduced power or torque, no emissions faults. Again, the vast majority of modern diesels are this way and still running great with hundreds of thousands of miles on them. Yes, even with EGR in place.

So yes, to each their own. I wish you luck! I don't understand why you would buy a brand new diesel, plan to delete/tune, and even be willing to replace the motor if it pops while tuned. All of that seems like an awful waste of money all in the name of trying to avoid emissions issues that don't result in catastrophic engine failure in the first place.

Oh well...

delete them tune them and have fun. That’s what’s money for when you have a problem. Drop 2.2 seconds off your 0-60 and that grin is just priceless. Look at the intake and smile. Sorry but that’s just who I am. Thanks for your knowledge though.
