I know some dont believe in tuners. But I'm set on trying one. I have an 01 Ram 5.9 with headers and cat back exhaust. Also k&n filter. Does anyone know the best tuner for me. The S.C 4845 dont support headers. But not sure if it would still work or not. Done research...thanks in advance!!!!!!

Did a lot of reading and still confused. Looks like the sct i would have to have someone program it. Does anyone know if i can use the new Superchips flashpaq to get rid of the death flash even though i have headers and cat Back. Just looking to do it myself not take it to a shop

Tuners will come with "canned" tunes. Basic tunes that weren't vehicle specific and aren't programmed for certain mods. To get full power of mods you have to have someone program you a tune.

How much it runs depends on the person. Hemifever and FlyinRyan are the best for Mopars. Yes you can get some gains using a canned tune. Even some basic mods don't really need a custom tune, but a custom tune will give you maximum power. Like me I have a 52mm throttle body, headers (shorties), mad ignition coil with 8mm wires, a cam, and different heads. I need a custom tune just to get it to run right, but if I didn't do the cam I could have used a canned tune. I hope you understand

Since it's an older model, here are some options for you...
