Nothing is needed from Chrysler, we are already in the PCM

That is true but I was thinking for future projects and you guys are good at your jobs.. It would be awsome to see a 2014 Diablo edition charger or 300.....
keep up the good work

Chrysler wouldn't do that. They're against tuning. Why do you think they locked and encrypted the PCMs? They're a bunch of closed minded pieces of shit. They expect us to spend money on their vehicles and then tell us what we can and cannot do to them? Fuck them! And then to break their promises and not give us a 700hp dual clutch Viper? That was the last straw. I left and I won't be back, regardless of how many letters and gifts I get from Ralph Gilles or the rest of them. I'll be throwing the SRT flag they sent me on eBay in the not to distant future. When your flagship has less power than a Mustang and an antiquated manual gearbox, for nearly 3 times the price well equipped, I want nothing to do with you. Same thing for GM.

If you read a little more, you'll see I have clearly stated this will happen, the problem is with people trying to tell us when and how we should have released them. Thats up to us. We never said we wouldn't do it.
We never said we have no interest.
We know there is demand, or it wouldn't even be on the map....I keep saying this, why would we have supported the 05-10 V6 models if we had no intention of supporting the much better performing 3.6 models?????????????
Calm down. If I see a 'Spam campaign', this will get locked in a heartbeat.
Showing interest is all thats needed here.
Thanks
OK, OK, No spam... fair enough. Just going to point out though that there was NO tune released for the 08-10 Avenger/Sebring. So to say the 05-10 V6 models got support isn't entirely true.
Look. a lot of us just want to know if in addition to the Chally, Charger, 300 et al... Will the 200/Avenger also get support? Again, there was no tune for them the first time around...

I agree with drksd4848, us Avenger/200 3.6L owners are afraid our vehicles will get left out in the cold again. There are a lot of us 3.6L owners modding our cars. The wait is worth it but for the Avenger/200 owners, we just don't want to be left waiting for nothing.
The most powerful mid-size car in it's class; especially being an american car, deserves a tune.

I've got a Challenger that is itching to be tuned. I'm looking forward to the availability of a tuner for the 3.6L V6 Challenger. How is the development coming along?

I would love to see a tuner for the 2011+ 3.6 Chargers/Challengers. Put me on the list to buy one. Just cause we dont spend the extra money for a R/t or SRT does not mean we dont want a little more power in our rides. A lot has to do with monthly payments and insurance for some folks. I can spend the money for upgrades though.

* Takes a deep breath *
Mikel, it sounds like Diablo has their hands full with the 3.6L Tuner requests!
You can count me in for one as well.
I'm just wondering what is the primary factor to the delay? Are the ECUs different from each vehicle? (Chrysler 200 vs. Charger SE) If so, then that would explain the reason behind the delay.
If you're already in the PCM, wouldn't the framework be the same (allowing for easier calibrations/tuning)? Or is it that vastly different?
Are there any "rough guesstimates" as to what performance numbers we might expect from the tuner?
I sure hope everything goes smoothly, because Diablo is first on my list rather than other tuners.
EDIT: Forgot to ask about the shift points. Would this be improved as well, because my car shifts as if a grandma was stick shifting! Takes a full second to shift gears and sometimes it shifts randomly. Dealer said it was "normal".

It is now April. I strongly suggest that DS post a detailed update on the status of product release for 2011 and up Challenger/Charger with 3.6 Pentastar and five speed.
Some of us have been trying to defend DS, but persistent lack of info will send your potential customers to Arrington Performance (which recently merged with B&G Chrysler) and is the official MOPAR vendor for performance PCMs ship to customer.
Thanks.

why would you assume we can't do them?
No offense, but I have answered this a few times already, in great detail

They'll be done...... eventually. There are other things that are way more important than the V6 cars. This has been covered in the Future Products section.
