Challenger tuning...

So I've heard that they finally released a way to tune the new 392 challenger. Any truth to this? How dangerous do you think it will make them to us SuperSlow owners? Lol

I went over to the challenger form to see about this.

Seems that they have cracked it. They released 1 can tunned only so far and the ability to adjust a few settings.

IN coming weeks they will be having custom tunes for cai/ exhaust/ cam and those things.

They then will release full adjustability. Just cracking the code is amazing.

Stock vs. stock, a 392 Challenger will typically beat the Camaro SS. A tuned 392 would embarrass a stock SS.

Its been a big deal in the 392 community. A few members went 11's this week with just a tune and tire. Now that they can do all the bolt ons, cams, blowers and such it will be very interesting.

I think we are going to start seeing more of the 392's in the 11's once they have a CMR tune vs a "canned tune" cai, exhaust . This run is on 20" nittos.

I went out yesterday completely stock down to the air filter and ran 12:464 @ 112+. I could not hook up at all with TC turned off, skated through the 1/8th, TC fully on net me 1:90s 60', so I can imagine tune and traction from DRs will net 11s
