2006 Jeep SRT8 with Trinity

Post by kmitch80 »

Im a new trinity user and also new to the srt8. ive done research on it for 5 years but now i actually own one and love it. Anyway, i just recently purchased the trinity tuner, updated it with the new 1R07 tune and then applied the 91 tune to it. Didnt really notice any difference with it at all. So not sure if i did something wrong or what. The tune did install correctly so dunno if i need to adjust some things or what. I did read about the knock sensor and adjusting fue flow up 1-2%. my question is, where is the knock sensor gauge?? ive created a custom gauge layout and i go to knock CONTROL and i see KNK_LT RETARD, KNK_ST RETARD, KNK_MAX_TO-, KNK_SNS_V1, KNK_SNS_V2, AND KNK_TOT_RET. i think i've tried them all and and when monitoring the number (32.00) is there and doesnt move. From what i've red i want the knock to be close to 0...correct? and btw, im running 91 octane with NOS octane booster, good for 6 full octane numbers, or 60 points.

The NOS Race Booster is good stuff. The Hemi likes it. Its generally good for reducing ST KR by about 3 degrees.

None of the other ones do anything. The NOS Race formula has NitroMethane in it though, which the Hemi loves.

Wish I could get 100 at the pump, but the best I can get is 94. We had a station that had 104, but when the gas prices skyrocketed, they stopped. Can only get the other stuff (100, 104 and 108 Unleaded) in 5 gallon cans, and they're super expensive (like $50+ a can).

man i wish we had good gas here in NM, best at the pump is freakin 91! i run the 91 octane tune with the trinity now, not much difference it seems, at 4500 ft so im runnin lik 13.5 in the 1/4 mile. sound bout right? i figure with the altitude its not bad. still wanna break that 12 second mark with some bolt ons. Thinking intake first, any ideas on which intake to get? i see alot of different ones, most looking the same, most claiming 15+ hp, which names actually deliver? on a separate note, mike, whats the DYNO MODE on the trinity do on the jeeps? besides throw a munch of lights bells and whistles at me.
