Default RE: 0-60 problems.

I just attempted the 0-60 times just before I made it home. It was only my 3rd attempt ever and guess what???????? I broke the 5 second barrier with ease 4.82 seconds..... yesssssssss! My previous best was a 5:46 with no rev on the tach. I also had a 5:92 with esp off, too much tire spin. This was my first attempt since the srt experience in Vegas. I tached her up somewhere between 900-1000. I will play with different revs and let you guys know.

I am stoked now. BTW: I did the predator tune today at lunch, just the 93 oct CAI tune. I believe this tune adds about 30 rwhp.

How are you mopar2ya?

While on the 0-60 screen, if you press the Function Select button it will display your best time. Be careful, if you hold down the Function Select button for 5 seconds it will clear your best time.

This is on page 168 of the 2008 owners manual.

I believe that could be possible. I just stopped in the road on the way to the house and let her rip. Just one shot and done. I believe there could be a little more rev in the tach it just depends on how you roll into the throttle. The throttle probably means more than anything while taching. You can really experience this at the srt expeience. Each car will have its sweet spot.

Rudy,

Not for sure, Daytona was in August last year I believe. I'm sure Homestead would have been around then also. SRT schedule will be out in Feb. We'll just have to see.

BTW: I hope Dodge will build a couple of extra challengers for the experience by next year.

rudy call the predator guys up....im pretty sure there is a simple way of uploading your tune and then uploading your stock figures before you take in in for any warranty work....i would call them up if i were you.

Rudy,

Absolutely, it saves your factory setting. So if you have to take it to the dealer you just reload your factory setting. It's a piece of cake. It only takes about 5 minutes to do. I was reluctant at first, but you know if your a car guy you have to go faster. I bought the pc interface kit as well, for any future upgrades.
