Is there an 8r21 coming?

[fordomatic69]

Put my Magnum back to bone stock for some warantee work and regular scheduled maintenance. Just wondering if there is a version 8r21 coming soon? We are in the dead of winter here in Ontario so I am not in a rush to put the tune back on because of the reduced ESP and changed Torque Management (downright scary on snowy road...LOL).

Not anytime too soon.

Thanks

Since you have a "Not anytime too soon?", what about a "... this is what's coming in R21: 1), 2), ...x). ???"

I 2nd that... Giddy up!! LOL

[mikel]

Ummm....the reason we have no plans for 8r21 is because we have nothing that needs to be added at the moment.

Here are a couple of suggested "adds"

1. Save the custom settings with the tune (may be doing it, but the GUI doesn't show it: i.e. Tire Size, Fuel adds, etc.)

2. Provide another transmission option: Use the non-stock setting and add auto-kick giving you the auto downshift to 1, 5th gear, and autokick.

3. "Teen Ager / Valet" mode. Ability to limit the revs, speed to something like 65, and ... (I have an 19 yr old son who I will NOT allow to drive my car!)

Thats strange, because I have a 60 year old father who I won't let drive mine (no, I'm not 19).

Ummm....P0128 fix

Ummm....P0128 fix

That will be in the next rev most likely, along with a fix for the P0138/P0158 codes after disabling the rear O2 sensors, but the P0128 needs some time.

So there WILL BE an 8r21 then? LMAO!!

how about adjusting MDS speed, requiring a minimum speed, tip in and tip out(?) Basically require freeway type behavior and once activated requiring a large throttle movement to disengage. Don't want activated until cruising down the freeway, and don't want it tipping out for every small hill

One thing that's really missing from this product that would be nice to have is the ability to stay in gear longer NOT at WOT. When I used LS1 Edit, there was the ability to change the parameters to hold a gear longer at low or medium throttle levels. As you know, the SRT8 can be in 4th gear by 25-30 mph at light throttle. It shifts this way for gas mileage purposes, but it would be nice to change it. The LS1 Edit table was complicated, so I know it's not a simple program change. But it is one of the most useful changes you can make.

There is currently no way to control pert throttle shifting in these cars.

Thanks

Well, the computer definately controls it now, so it would be a matter of cracking into that table. I have faith in you guys

I would also like to see some options for MDS operation such as min speed or throttle pos. I would like firmer shifts under moderate throttle.
