Speedy,

How did you receive that correspondence? I do not believe that I received it.

I didn’t get one either.

I am happy with the tune I have, 9.33 launching in 2nd gear- not sure I will have the PCM/TCM flashed

I thought the 170 did not allow 2nd gear launches? How did you accomplish it?

It was posted in one of the car groups on FB.

170 absolutely allows a 2nd gear launch, just can't use the TB in 2nd.

My 9.29 at 147(ish) was also a 2nd gear launch on TNT prep (crap). I'm not gonna be a guinea pig, but these changes look promising. The rev limit deal is a big one in good DA.

Kudos to FCA for keeping updates coming for a 3yr old car - that seem unnecessary but very much appreciated.

Whatcha thinking of doing. Are you going for the updated powertrain calibration? I think I would if I had a Demon 170. Maybe after some people had the aftermarket Tuners doing their customers calibration Dodge thought good to know, why not! I like that idea.
After all the Demon170 was meant to be dragraced.

This 100%, I'm VERY surprised.

I'll give it a bit to bake to make sure there are positive results. I learned the hard way not to be the guinea pig when it comes to new cals.

I think a lot of these adjustments are based on Ron's feedback. He's probably the most experienced running one of these at the track and keeps excellent notes.

Ron is a wealth of knowledge! And shares what he knows. 👍👍👍👍 four thumbs up for Ron
