Semi Truck ECM Tuning in Des Moines, IA

At Kustom Truck and Tire, we offer semi truck ECM tuning in Des Moines, IA that transforms your rig’s performance without compromising durability or emissions compliance. Your ECM—or engine control module—is the brain of your truck. With proper performance tuning, we can optimize how it communicates with your engine, transmission, and fuel system.

Our ECM tuning services deliver real-world results, including:

  • Improved fuel economy
  • Increased horsepower and torque output
  • Better throttle response and shift timing
  • Reduced turbo lag and enhanced drivability
  • Lower emissions and cleaner combustion
  • Customized settings for towing, hauling, or regional use

We work with most major ECM platforms and engines, offering semi truck ECM tuning for PACCAR, Cummins, Detroit Diesel, and more. Whether you're an owner-operator or managing a fleet, our goal is to unlock your truck’s full potential.

What Makes Us Different

Unlike generic “plug and play” tuners, our ecm performance tuning is performed in-house by experts who understand diesel systems inside and out. We tailor each tune to your truck's workload, driving conditions, and performance goals.

Here’s why truck owners choose Kustom Truck and Tire for ecm tuning:

  • Custom ECM calibrations based on your engine’s specs and application
  • Diagnostics before and after tuning to verify system health
  • Safe, legal tuning practices that stay within emissions guidelines
  • ECM updates that support DPF, EGR, and DEF system functions
  • Options for fleet-wide optimization and consistent tuning across vehicles

We don’t just reflash your ECM—we improve how your engine management system operates. From fuel injection timing to turbo boost curves, we fine-tune your truck to run smoother, pull harder, and last longer.

Rolin Sinn

Shopped around for pricing and Kustom came in lowest. Called me as soon as they were in and got them on 2 days later. They ensured my alignment was correct with bigger tires and gave me all the info to ensure my torque specs were good after a few days of driving. Rims and lug covers don’t have a scratch on them.

Jake Kidman

Fantastic find! On our way across country and had tire problems on a 36 foot trailer and these guys had the space and equipment to get new rims, tires mounted and balanced and back on the road. And they did it quicker than any other tire place I've ever been to! Highly recommended, thanks gentlemen!

K Nels

Very professional company the entire way through. Owner and employees are very respectful and easy to work with on job sites. Very quick to respond and do a high caliber job. Will hire them for all our concrete pumping and dump truck needs.
