nobody does custom tuning for 03's, only 04 up unless u want to trick the computer in what its seeing by using a psc-1. so with that said all there is and ever gonna be for 03s is simple handhelds, like bully, diablo, hypertech, superchips. Ive had two out of those four and i would recommend superchips from what ive herd..

CMR can do custom tuning on the '03s, but is missing several major features such as raised idle / speed limit and all transmission functions. There is more missing as well. The basics of timing and fuel is good to go, apparently. I am waiting on delivery of my iEMS3 which is a 8-channel piggyback with many unique feature. This is more aimed toward forced-induction, though.

On a cummins Go Smarty! best tuning out there for the common rail!

But on another note, Edge is pretty good on them as well. Probably next best thing besides the smarty for the 5.9

Wow, my first day here as a sponsor and I feel like I already have an arch rival, cool.

I am guessing you don't like DiabloSport products, or do you just like anything but our products, and want to let everyone know?

For what its worth, we are the only people in the market that offer custom tuning at all for 03 Rams, so there is not much of a choice here for now...

As for your Smarty comment, well, we have some pretty killer Cummins tunes as well, maybe you should line one up against a Smarty one day and see how it pans out....

Thanks
Mike

yea nothing against your product or you but your not gonna get much love around here, diablo has done great things for the dodge community from a tuning standpoint. guess i got out of my 03 a little too soon, when did u start supporting 03s fully??

nothing was aimed at you....i think you took it personal for some reason.

I have too many friends with diesels and i know a darn good bit about them and what upgrades work best. All the cummins guy's run Smarty's with the new programs. Many of them have tried many setups and they all go back to the Smarty. NOT SAYING the rest are junk, its just the Smarty is proven and lays down some serious power.

Damn, brutal.

Why would I not get much love around here?

Maybe you guys are not aware of how many Predators we sell.
I can assure you there are more Predator tuned trucks running around this world than HPt or EFI live tuned trucks, so we get lots of love...

As for 03 tuning, we have had custom tuning available for the 03-08 HEMI Rams for 6-8 months now.
