Just had my 2nd tune revision from Torrie and I cant believe how much of a difference it made! Feels like a brand new car all over again and wer not even done perfecting this tune! The power comes on sooner and pulls harder and smoother all the way to around 6250 where he has the shift point set up. Before you could tell the power starts to drop off around 5800 but not anymore. I recommend the dps!

The DPs will have the same effect you describe on a stock tuned SHO... Proven during the development of the PPE DPs..., both major tuners know how to adjust for them...  That are definitely a hoot and add a lot of low end pull at lower rpms.

My car starts spinning around 2500rpm in first all the way through 1st and a healthy bark into 2nd. Also if I floor it at 35-40 I get a nice bark on the downshift. Crazy stuff lol

:)... Absolutely the effects!  What a gas!... Now turn that spin into forward motion for real acceleration!

Update: getting better mpg too. This same trip 3 weeks ago in similar conditions the best I averaged was about 29mpg.(65-70 mph highway only) This is all with Torries 93 tune. Very happy.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Nice MPG'S!!!

Averaging about 82 mph with an extra 500 lbs of cargo, 2 adults, a couple WOT pulls leaving the toll booths (both netted chirps into 2nd), and a slaying of a Hemi Challenger on the e-way after giving him a running start we averaged 26.3 until we stopped for a lug nut check and lunch...we then set off for the remainder of the trip and had to make up a half hour with an ETA of 2:15....avg was closer to triple digits than 90 and it still pulled 26 mpg's

Still in shock

I am not sure he does not give me much details. He tries to get as much performance and safety. I have had close to 20 revisions since i started tuning with him. As im adding mods things change.

I was thinking about buying downpipes, does he revise the tune without an extra charge? Did you buy catted or non catted?
