bought a used sct tuner.. wtf
Man I'm so tempted to buy a tune for my 1998 Ram. It's healthy just weak...well, as weak as the 360 can be called in a truck. LOL.
My hesitation is that I have a virgin 360 donor engine that will end up a 408 someday and I really hate the idea of paying for a tune when I'll be replacing the engine and will have to buy a tube for it too.

Had to make a 2 hr trip each way yesterday, and again today. The 93 tune is fun for sure, and the 87 is a gas sipper. My speedometer is off and I can't afford a full tank this week lol so I cant give exact numbers but the mpg increase was noticeable so this will all pay for itself over time
I've created dyno and track tested "preloaded/can" tunes for every dodge pcm from '96 to '03 5.2, 5.9, 3.9, V10 and 4.7 pcm's. And for '03 to '06 hemi/4.7 pcms
more than you have to
You must be Sean eh? I'm running stock everything but see my sig and you know it could use some help..I'll pm you when I'm ready..New cylinder head 1st...Thank guys!
Ok let me approach this a tad more seriously since I am interested for my truck. The 360 in my 1998 Ram is literally factory stock from the air box to the exhaust system.
What could a tune from you offer in the way of gains? I prefer low end grunt over top end HP. Something low to mid range. I am not concerned with fuel mileage. Maybe just more power to play with until I build the 408.
As far as mods between then and now, nothing but possible a custom built CIA and I might replace the stock muffler with a Magnaflow.

yes fixing the plenum is always a MUST with my tunes, even with the 87 octane tune. And after fixing the plenum, run a can of sea foam through the vacuum line to soak and clean up the cylinders.
For the 87 tune I oftentimes use stock shift points to keep the rpms down for mpg. If you don't care about that then I can put a shift pattern change on there. Eliminating the death flash of course, removing tq mgmt, & altering the fuel are things I do with the 87 tune. The premium tunes get that and more aggressive timing curve. On a stock truck, even the 87 tune will be much spunkier in a 0 to 100 mph run. I also alter the air curve so the engine is a little more responsive and when you rev it up and let off the throttle is recovers much quicker and doesn't hang the rpms up
