Founded  in 1985, PPE (Pacific Performance Engineering) made engineering  innovations the prime directive in pursuit of diesel performance. Our  engineers took the Duramax platform and significantly improved  horsepower and torque with the Duramaximizer, at a time when there were  no consumer performance options available for the new common-rail  electronic diesel engines. The product was tested in the towering dunes  of Glamis, California. In an era when air and water-cooled sand rails were commonplace, a single cab Chevy long-bed truck fitted with paddle tires producing “rooster tails” in the hot desert sand dunes was a sight  to behold. People gathered to see what they had never seen before. The diesel revolution had begun.
 
PPE engineers continued to innovate, creating performance products to enhance and improve the Duramax diesel platform. Systematically finding and improving the “weak links” which would fail under the new horsepower and torque demands. Our engineers built on their successes by turning  their sights on the Dodge and Ford diesel platforms. With each innovation they learned how to make clean, efficient power while improving fuel mileage and the driver’s experience.
 
As we add new products to our line, we continued to improve and forge industry relationships that marked advancements in product design. PPE partnered with Garrett (Honeywell) and through that relationship, the PPE Turbo Pedestal and the vastly improved Manifolds, now part of the 50  State Legal, PPE Manifolds and Up-Pipes Kit.

PPE’s distribution channels are wide, including partnerships with Summit  Racing, Premier Performance, Meyer Distribution and many others across  North America and Canada. Your PPE parts ship quickly from any of our satellite warehouses or distributors.
