I hope you guys will support the '12 Power Wagon as well. My tuner from Bully Dog has been a pain in the arse and still waiting on an update that will work. I ordered a Trinity also and should receive it pretty soon. Waiting to compare them!!!

We've always supported Power Wagons in the past, these should be no different :)

Keep in mind that the 2012 Power Wagons use the new 66RFE trans that from what you said has a separate TCM, unlike the 545/65RFE. Ram actually did a pretty good job with the programming on this transmission, so if you can just tune the engine and reduce TM I'd be thrilled!

No worries, if that is the case, then thats how it will go down.

The Trinity will simply treat it like a manual trans (since it cant see/talk to the tcm) and will allow tuning of the PCM, you'll get reduced TM, improved throttle response, and shifting will actually improve a bit due to the reduced TM.

Thanks

I saw the dyno sheet on the 87 tune. If its any indication of the premium tune, no one will be disappointed. The 87 tune gave an extra 60hp and 60tq off the line. TM is just about bye bye

Where you do you see 60hp and 60tq? That is extremely hard to believe on 87... That would mean 93 oct would see 100+hp... These are Gas Hemi's not Diesels LOL.

Oh you meant the power curve off the line. Didn't mean you meant literally "off the line" That is freaking impressive.

Canned tunes will be fun for a day :P If they can get that much performance from a canned tune, I can't wait to let shawn do his work on a full on custom tune with 93 oct. Hopefully have the ability to turn o2 sensors off for my long tubes. :D Still need the tunes to be released :P
