Do you need to buy a Diablo Sport Tuner, or is is possible to find someone local to hook up theirs and change my settings for me?
Is that possible?
just wondering since it looks like it's not coming with anything that get hard installed.

From what I understand, if you have the chip installed and need warranty work the dealer can find that out and be able to prove you used one and void your warranties... is this correct? How could you "actually" get away with this?

I'm sure they have a way... but it also has to affect the repair being made. A 93 oct. tune will not harm this engine. I think supercharging, NOS and turbo will cause concern using this or any tune chip.

I agree lear totally... But what if the Transmission blew? could they then say you were running a 93 octane tune and void that repair under warranty? That's the big question... at least for me most of us Dodge guys out there know our engine is just about the best out there, but our tranny's definatly aren't the best... I'm truly worried about the transmission... Especially for life?

I have the manual 6-speed so I'm not too certain about the autos. My son has an SRT-8 auto and the diablo tune. It improved the shifting quite nicely. The trans should be the same one used in the SRT-8s and they have 425 HP so I believe the 5.7s increase to over 400 HP should be fine for this transmission. I have read articles on 300s and Chargers with over 600HP and no trans problems yet and all are autos.
