I will get either the Stage 2 or 3 depending on what the Stage 3 involves. As soon as Stage 3 is announced, I will make an appointment for my car to get one of the two upgrades

I'm definitely in for stage 2

I read somewhere there is a TSB for it too. Not sure but I'm going to do more research.
No. Dodgecares whoever that is, posted some bullshit TSB on the other site that did not even apply to Challengers and did not even make sense regarding what the TSB was about.

Ya that Dodgecares thing is such a PR joke. Every response feels like a bot response. Annoying at best.

It's easy to tune out. I could do it in 30 seconds.
I likely depends on what is causing it. My tuner could not do it in 3 tries. We were on the 4th revision when I traded the car in. And I think my Tuner taught you..............Not sure. Next he was going to "Let's give this one a shot before I bump the ramp rate up any."

Have they ever helped anyone that you know of?

I did read one post out of the many I’ve read with them and it was basically them forwarding the case to a dealer I believe. The car owner seemed to be pretty happy but I remember thinking that was something we would all have done ourselves anyway.
So the short answer is not really imo.

I thought it was determined to be hitting the revlimiter (predictive perhaps) but maybe I lost track of further investigation.

The Frostbite RedEye was crashing into the rev limiter on 1-2. I did not try to fix that one. But it was suggested to add pressure. Not command the shift sooner.

The Super Stock would hiccup on the 2-3 and did not hit the limiter. It would only do it when the load was high. It was not completing the shift as fast as the program expected and Torque managment was cutting power to speed the shift up.

The Super stock worked great in the 10.15 and up ET's range but any time it was in a situation where it was going to go 10.00 or 9.95 it would begin to hiccup on the 2-3.

I’m very far away from those times, but maybe with negative DA it could be achieved.

So I would think that would be something pretty straight forward to solve @DRAGRCR since a lot of modded cars are running those times or better without any hiccups. I'd love to get some add'l logs from someone having the problem to see if I could figure it out.

I don’t have the split second comparisons but on a road course, when it is running exceptional and has great traction, (not a coincidence) like going up the straight at Brainerd it may hiccup in more than one gear. Yes, it happens worse when it is really challenged and has the potential to really snap one off. Oh, sorry for the pun.

I would work with them on a TM compromise. The current program makes it really fall on its face. We do have torque others dream about.

Ron sent me some logs. 100% it's the rev limiter. Plain as day.

What is this "hiccup "?

Wow! Sounds like it shuts off.
That was the worst one out of all the Cars I have had. FCA said it was operating as designed.

That looks like my M6 shifting...

Not hardly. Your tuner can't find it?
