What octane is the Tow tune?

Is there an 87 tune or the ability to modify the stock tune for those of us that don't want to use Premium fuel?

What's the projected release date for the trans and torque management functions?

Does it have the ability to be tuned for say a Super Charger or engine mods?

What's the projected release date for the trans and torque management functions? No ETA, but in the works. WOT 1-2, 2-3, rev/speed limiter are supported right now and base tuning TM is significantly reduced.

Does it have the ability to be tuned for say a Super Charger or engine mods? No custom engine tuning.
Ran,


Answers are inline. Thanks.

Also, any other current or planned features such as the wonderful ESP feature, and turning it off somehow...rev limiter. I know an ESP option is something folks want. Not sure what Superchips will do there. Right now you'll have rev limiter, speed limiter, WOT 1-2, 2-3, shift point options and MDS Disable. Expanded transmission options will follow after beta.
John,


Answers inline. Thank you.

Yes. Torque management is part of the transmission options.

How do these times compare to anyone who has taken their hemi to the track?
He has 17's and 3.55 gears. He had his shift points set to stock for that run. I think he's going to try a couple more runs with the shifts moved up a bit.

There's a gentleman on another forum who ran 14.858 at the track stock.

Hardly seems worth it unless there are features for the everyday driver like mileage,ability to turn of the mds and esp fully. That I would buy.
