Default Recently bought a Hemi...

and must say I luv it...But after riding around for a few weeks I have started looking at what to buy first. Leaning towards a programmer but after reading more into them, not sure with the 03 its the best buy I have read many reviews and threads on it but seems like everyone ends in people picking whatever is in thier trucks(and I can understand that too) and not many seem to have 03's that are speaking up in the threads.

Honestly I wont be going all out on mods(well at least for now, Im sure many have said the samething before...)

So if anyone can lend a hand thanks

Welcome to DF man, grats on your new truck:P


Post some pics of it though!



As for your programmer, I'm a newb when it comes to those-I don't even have mine...YET-but someone should be able to help you out. All of these old men around here are asleep at this hour though.

reason you dont hear 03's speaking up on programers is because the 03 guys have a little free mod they can do that others cant lol lucky basterds. so they have not much need for the tunner . im sure one of them will chime in for ya

Ramhunter is referring to the TM mod.(torque management) It reduces engine power in the torque converter so the tranny can shift smoother. if you do the mod, I think it's a simple wire swap, then you can have the effects of a shift kit. Otherwise, the handhelds don't have any other TCM support for the 04/04 years.
