Magnum Tuning
Hey guys, I'm new to the whole computerized tuning for the Ram trucks. I have a 1999 dodge Ram with the 5.2 Magnum and was looking for a tuner/tunes for my pickup. What's the best tuner/tunes for my pickup? The only performance upgrades I've done to the truck is the: plenum plate, 180° thermostat, MSD ignition coil/wires, and soon a stage one modified throtitle body and Volant cold air intake. Thanks,

There's an existing, extensive thread regarding tuners in the FAQ section......

Getting the engine to run like new is usually where I start. I bought a blue tooth OBDII, and the torque app for my phone. You can watch all kinds of parameters as they change over time, such as pulling up a hill, wot bursts, etc. Timing, vacuum, fuel trim.... Maybe I'm a nerd, but I think its pretty cool to be able to see that - and track stuff down you would never do w/o a multi thousand tool. Both ODBII adapter and app was under $20 total... gotta luv that.
