I'm sorry I ripped on you so hard! I was just so pissed and I wanted concrete answers. I freaked out when my car started acting up at the track and all I want is a do not mess with list from Diablo.

FYI: On a 06 RT Mode 1 and Mode 2 disengage the transmission at red line. None of the modes but stock up-shift now.

Was going to say thats the first time I have seen anyone have a go at someone for trying to help out. Way to sort it out in the end mate.

As for the ESP diabling through Predator, it is not necessary and should not be done. It is for use as a tuning mainly - dyno etc. The problem with disabling it is that the car will still sense yaw rates and at a certain degree/angle the car will go into limp mode. At the track it is not needed. Most guys I know who have run 11.50's and better just disable at the dash.

As these guys have correctly pointed out, ESP disable is not something we recommend for the street.
It usually will not cause issues at the track going in a straight line, but thats up to you.
FYI, next revision ESP disable will be renamed 'dyno mode' in the Predator.

So is there a Mode that will still allow auto up shifts that is not stock for a 06 R/T Charger?

That sucks, that what mine did in Mode 1, then I tried mode 2 and it was like Superchips Paddle kick mode, it increased shift point rpm and it shifted automatically at redline and it gave me the "5" that many lost with Predator.
I guess mode 2 working like Paddle kick only works on the 05 models, I get no mode 3 by the way, don't you 06-08 guys have mode 3?, if so, have you tried it to see what it does?

I only have Stock, Mode 1, and Mode 2. If I am supposed to have a Mode 3 that might be the problem. I have the latest software so I am not sure what to do at this point.

Call them and talk to them, they'll know what's going on, you can ask them how may modes your 06 is supposed to have, and see what each mode does, you have to load each mode into your car and see what they do, nothing beats real world testing.

I loaded each mode and they all disengage the tyranny at red line except for the stock mode.

05, 06 and 07 will only have mode 1 and mode 2 and stock. Mode 3 was for 08 and above and will not show up on your screen unless you have an 08
