With superchips all you can change right now is WOT shifts. They are very close to releasing the new program that allows you to change every up shift/down shift TQ Mangement....everything. Once this comes out that will completely eliminate your problems

Well Done 4.7L. I was at a light in Town yesterday with the wifes PT Cruiser and this double shocked jet engine noisey F350 from Saskatcheewan (Pronounced like the 2 Angry Beavers cartoon) pulled up and he had a sticker in the window that said Got Smoke? He took off and my ears were ringing. Well that just made my day. My answer to that would be. "Nope, got Hemi" .

A stock diesel truck runs in the 17s. They aren't remotely fast till they've been modded.

Ford has spent the last decade trying to get their v8's to get near the Hemi's output. Dodge is too stupid to give us a 6spd auto (or an auto with 5 distinct and usable gears) but at least they got the engine right.

I highly doubt that... no offense
