Yeah, Holla is not very credible on any of the sites. He has lofty ambitions but no data to back it up. Like h777 said, some on every site ( more so on DTW tho ).
Onequick, I just installed the STS kit on my Dodge. The "engine control" and "transmision modulation" is quite simple in theory, nothing earth shattering. PM me and I'll explain more but for now it is nothing that cannot be done with a 5 minute trip to Radio Shack.
Where oh where is my HemiEdit?!? Crap, nowhere to be found. F*&$&@#! DaimlerChrysler and their computer secrecy. Oh, and just to make things more interesting they changed from a 16 bit processor on the 2003 models to a 32 bit model on the 04+ vehicles. How many aftermarket companies are gonna make two completely different software configurations? Not like Dodge put a million of the Hemi motors in the 2003 model lineup.
As I have said before, OH THE HUMANITY!

*off topic* You guys ever noticed how immature some of the DTW guys are? All they talk about is, "My hemi can burn out further than your Chebby", or "You think your ferd can hang with my hemi stock vs. stock, ha". "Dodge is the best truck ever built"! Maybe jealousy is the cause; for the name calling at least.(chebby, ferd) One of them was bragging about how bad he smoked a Titan, he only ran i think a 15.7x. Why can't they talk about modding their trucks instead of always comparing?

What I dont understand is how a Titan with a Flowmaster and Volant put down 286 rwhp and 340 ft pounds of torque at the rear wheel!! And its only rated at 305 hp at the flywheel? That the same numbers with a little higher on the torque than a 345 hp (flywheel) and 380 ft pounds of torque motor.

12 second, thats like my neighbor, he is a big mopar gear head. He owns a Prowler (He thinks its fast), and a Quad cab 4x4 with a hemi. He couldnt believe when I told him my truck could out run his Hemi he said really what your truck got in it I said its just a 5.3. Then I got on my truck in front of his house and he couldnt believe how my truck would run. Then my brother bought one exactly like my neighbor and I drove it and wasnt impressed at all by the performance. But after all it is a quad cab 4x4. I did see again a RCSB 2wd with the big hemi decal on the windshield, that revs his truck up everywhere he goes. My friend talked to him a while back and he said he had one of the fastest trucks around. Getting the headers next week and hopefully within a month or so a Nelson tune and install the cam. Then I gonna go hunting for a hemi.

Hey 12sec, you wanna see a Hemi owner cry? Ask him how many mods he has, and then make him show ya. Few to no mods available! I went into a total aftermarket black hole when I bought the Dodge ( needed 1/2 ton 4 reg doors for family, Hemi was "bonus" at the time...) although I was warned heavily by my F150 driving friends.
Not only that, the mods that are out there do little to boost power output due to the stupid speed density ECU. Best mod so far was cutting the torque management wire, got me -0.3 seconds off my 1/4 times for free!
