From what i read you can't do it with dodges because of the software that is used in the PCM. Have to change the PCM to a megasquirt or similar.

According to what I am reading on their website, this software does indeed have the capability to edit/tune the 96 and up Dodge PCM......

Well, I bought the program from wildman and it should be here Thursday. Once I figure it out I'll post an update.
Hopefully it will do most of what it claims. Right now I would be happy if I can find the mystery mil code after using the SCT tuner from hemifever. He did the trans delete, but its still showing a code, and we couldn't figure out what the ecm is whining about.

Just a short update.

So far it seem like a glorified code reader. All of the tuning stuff is done with other programs they send you to. At the moment I can't find any tuner that will work for our ECUs, unless you can read and write hex code. 98 and newer (jtec+) might have some support if you look hard, but the earlier models (jtec) don't seem to have squat.
Every thing I've found is incomplete because the people breaking the code decided to go into business for themselves and don't want to share their magic, not that I blame them after looking at this stuff.
