ACTUAL GAINS!!!

[eric.hauptman]

I'm posting this to see what people have noticed in actual gains from there stock tunes from the diablo tunes
I have not had the oportunity yet to do a dyno to get true figures however this is my test and results, using the trinity t-1000 I used the virtual drag tree to do a 0-60 and a 1/4 mile 2 times on both my stock tune and using diablo's 91 oct tune and seen only .5-.6 sec. faster in the 0-60 and a gain of 1.1-1.2 sec. faster in the 1/4 mile with a gain of 5-6 mph faster in the 1/4 mile.

Trinity T-1000
2011 Dodge Challenger R/T
Magnoflow Exhaust
K&N CAI

'only' .5-.6 off 0-60 and a full second in the 1/4 mile?

Those are HUGE gains, a 5-6 MPH improvement would equate to about 50 rwhp being added

I will be playing with car this weekend...
I will post my results..

We were out last night at North Star Dragway near Denton Texas north of Dallas Ft Worth. Unfortunatly it was very busy and did not get a decent cool down run. It went 8.84 at 79.70 with 2.05 60 stock with no tune but car sat 1 hour before this run. Best with 93 tune and hot car was 9.08 at 77.91 with 2.11 60.
Car is a 2011 Charger R/T 5.7 track pack with 3.06 gears. Car had little over a 1/4 tank of 93 octane in it.

Did some data logging. Had some knock readouts ST highest from 4.40 lowest to .50.

Car was almost hot lapping so times don`t bother me. DA was around 1800` and temps were 72.

Tonight we are going to Texas Motoroplex 1/4 mile south of Dallas to do some more runs. This time cooling it down up to an hour before passes. We will be lucky if we get 3-4 in.

We wanted more gains but understand with a hot car we are wasting our time.

Impressed with the throttle booster settings and shift firmness setting and all the data logging that can be accomplished. Thanks again Diablo for getting this car unlocked. I know this car has more in it.

I will post lots of info this weekend.

I have to imagine its knocking a lot to lose 2 MPH in the 1/8, try adding some fuel to the tune

thanks for the reply mikel.. I will try adding some fuel.. I have never done that before but looking at the forums I have some idea. If you go too much fuel it will just be too rich and slow down I assume?

just leaving the track now.... Saw some nice gains. 13.53 at 103 1.98 60 and a 13.52 at 103 1.99 60

those runs were with 91 Oct canned tune throttle boost at 20% shift firmness increased and HS fans on at 170. Also runs were with Frankentake IV CAI.

We let car cool 1 hour before runs with 170 degree coolant temp and it was 69
68 degrees outside with 1400 to 1300 DA.

I never messed with WOT fuel % ... I data logged each run also.

Last hot lap run went 14.08 at 100 2.14 60 .. So hot
lapping makes a big difference!


Best car has gone best stock with K&N drop in 13.66 at 101 in April of this year.

With cooler weather I see 13.40 13.30s
