Aye thats the GSM Supercharger, there's a few guys over at DTW running them now. There's still problems trying to get around the computer, so they have to do some serious Torque Reduction to get it to run nicely.
Heres the numbers at 6psi:
389rwhp = 123rwhp added (47% increase)
387rwtq = 97rwtq added (35% increase)

Whats the real scoop on the Hemi computer system? In the past, I've heard complaints about how no real tuning is available for the Hemi. Technically, whats the deal?

No real tuning is available... that's my problem.
I have an 04- the Hypertech is out but it hasn't gotten any rave reviews. Superchips is due out anytime now- it's suppose to be better but who knows. There are rumors that there will be a Diablo programmer out later this year too. Who knows???

Aye the computer is basically untunable, the Superchips Programmer and Hypertech, advance the timing a very small amount, but most of the gains are seen in being able to get an extra 500rpm's out of a shift, and in the case of the 04's removing the Torque Managment. A few have been buying stand alone computers to get around it, they see great gains by doing so but the costs are high.
I still pray Mopar will come out with something soon as the 3 year warrenty's are about to drop on the 03's.
On a side note, looks like the cam, heads, and intake off the 6.1L hemi will bolt right up the the 5.7L hemi and make good gains. :)

There is a reliable source within Mopar that says DC spent more time and money on the security for their Computers than they did on the actual programming to run the dam engines..... It is also said that there are more than 20 different computers for the same application and that there are more than 14 different lookup tables the computer can use. think that would screw up things?
If DC wants to keep all the cash to themselves for the perf aspects they at least need to offer something..
GET off your ASS DC!

How long until someone wires up a F.A.S.T. or a Big Stuff 3, to really see what these engines can do?

Wow, thats really too bad that tuning is such an issue with these newer Dodge trucks. I'm going to start a new thread for discussional purposes. I'd like to learn a little more abour them.

Agreed! Although I don't think I could ever get my wife to agree to let me get a supercharger, a custom tune would be nice.

They dont want any more warrenty problems than they already have.

I thought someone had already hooked up a megasquirt system to the 5.7. Im not sure where i read that though.
