You know, I wonder... Given the converter being different, gear ratio (4:10 correct?) in your R/T and of course the canned tunes tested on a non R/T..... Hell, I would wager Diablo may not even be aware of the R/T and the differences. I have asked my dealer, who just stares at me like a deer in headlights if the R/T has any different programming over other trucks, so that is a dead end. If it does I would say the different program, gears and converter when combined with canned Diablo tunes means going backward. If this turns out to be the case they need to note that R/T is excluded from device support.
I wonder if you sent your original backup tune to Diablo if they could tell if it is different from a non R/T tune? If you like I can give you my original tune (it is on my PC) and you can send it and yours to them or maybe Mike W to compare.

I've talked to some oem contractors(one who had a qc "R/T" mule) in my area(Detroit) who mentioned the R/T has shifts programmed differently than the stock Rams.

REAAAALLY!!!!!????
I did 14.8 @ 95mph and that was on my stock QC @ a weight of 5420lbs and 3:55 gears! And yes I have a video , but it was of my second run of 14.9 not my third.
I would have guessed that the R/Ts would run in the high 13s??????????

14.4 is an awesome time for fontana. Its a crappy track with almost always crappt DA. Best Ive ever got there was a 14.2. That same day he got a 14.4, I ran a 14.7. I only got one run in and spun kinda bad and didnt have time for another run.
You going on the 5th of december M15? How about that grudge match?

I ran a 13.7 stock, but the DA was perfect(0). Like socal said, the DA at Fontana was like 3k. That's why I think it's stupid to not use corrected times for reference. M15's time corrected is a high 13. He was also having issues with the tune it sounds like.

By the way, I wasn't implying anyone on here was stupid lol. I just re-read that and it could of come across that way. It's just my "online forum" experience that people want to completely discount corrected times.
DA is a huge factor on times. I'm not sure you should use a corrected time for bragging rights, but it's a nice tool to compare times that are run in different elevations and different weather. How many times do you see a guy talk about posting worse times after a mod, only to realize his original times were in perfect weather and his modded times were in 80* with 90% humidity?
