Hemi Predator for SRT vehicles

Hey Mike,

Matt and I are the point people for those tests he linked too above. We'd love to work with you should the opportunity present itself. This Q&A should give you a great feel for what we're all about and what we do: http://www.lxforums.com/board/showthread.php?t=43402

Also as an FYI, I have a 395ci build based on the 5.7 block coming online in the next few weeks. The install is taking place at the same place we've done all the testing, and all the tuning will be done there as well. If you feel like you want your tuner tested on this, even if its in beta, I'm more than happy...

Looking forward to this! Please feel free to contact me any time via this forum, over on LXForums or even privately for email and/or phone info.

-Jason

Man, you guys are making my year.

If you need a Beta tester for a S/C'd 6.1L (well 6.3L now), I would be MORE than happy.

Cool vanilla and MattRobertson are great testers by the way.

Thanks for Pioneering for us Gear Heads.

We will be releasing custom tuning software to our dealers which will allow them to load tunes to your Predator to support any level of modification.

Thanks

Wow...look at one little post did eh?

Mike did you get my email? I tried sending you a PM, but it seems to be disabled here.

Let me know when you get a chance.

Thanks

If you guys need Canadian content for your testing, my 06 300c 5.7L is ready. It has been speaking with my F150 which has the DiabloSport Predator and she is convinced that she wants the Predator instead of the currently installed Flashpaq...

Looking forward to seeing how well this works out. It'll be nice to have something with some tuning options compared to whats out there now. 06 Magnum SRT8 here, did 13.11 @ 109.80mph stock, was pretty impressed with that. I have a AEM wideband i can use too so im all ready to tune. Depending how much tuning will be available.....think we'll be able to get some decent power just by leaning them out a bit up top, and if we can add a little timing...race gas....it never ends lol

bump for an update. Any progress (dyno sheets) on the 6.1 yet?

Thanks.

Edit****
Wow! Just checked this thread and saw over 3000 views. Shows me there is some interest in this product.

I'm sure you guys won't rush to get a bad product out, but methinks you're going to make your money back and more with this...

Appreciate any update

thanks again.

The SRT should hit the dyno tomorrow or Friday.
We are still working on the trucks.
We tuned an 06 last week and today we got an 03 in for testing.

Thanks

Nice. Can you post any dyno sheets/numbers afterwards? How is tuning the Hemi compared to other small blocks (ie LSX motors)?

Have you attempted any tuning on anything with any boost? Turbo? Blower? Nitrous?
What exactly is an airspeed sensor and how will it relate to boost, timing, fuel?

We have not played around with any boosted applications yet, we will release the regular tuning first then start to look at forced induction.
Once we get the SRT done we will post results for you.
