Is the DR predator coming along okay? Will it be out before Christmas? Will it have datalogging and MDS disable like the LX's?

Sold! Whenever they finally come out. Hopefully this will be under my Christmas tree.

Thanks for the response.

I hear you guys loud and clear.
Unfortunately, we need to develop some new hardware for the Predators to allow them to talk to the TCM in the trucks, so we are currently waiting on hardware to finish this job.
Good news is that the majority of the code writing, and tuning, is done, so it won't be too long.

Thanks

Hello, will the U7137 also work on a 2007 Durango 5.7?
Thanks

No offense Mike but it sounds like we are in for a bit of a wait, a couple of weeks ago you said that you were waiting on the hardware, I would have thought you had it by now (or I guess I hoped you would). Can you give us some kind of a time frame? Is it weeks, or months? I know you guys have your hands full with the LX guys and are having to do lots of tweaking for them but please don't forget about us DR guys, it seems like you guys have since we don't get fed any info.

So, are you saying you guys know what changes you will be making to the TCM. You already have the code writing pretty much done for the TCM, it is just a matter of being able to tell the TCM to do what you want it to do. Am I correct, or completely off? Do you know if we will have the ability to change the 2nd to 3rd shift point? Also, will there be an option, whether through CMR or handheld, that will eliminate 2nd prime if we so choose? I ask because people are ruining transmissions when shifting into 2nd prime under WOT with moderately modded trucks.

Thanks,
EBH

I think the "TCM" is the trans controller?? Will the tuner firm up these "MUSHY" shifts and if so will crisper shifting destroy the transmission???

I heard that Dodge kills the ignition for a fraction of a second during shifts to prevent drive line damage in higher HP applications??

Just curious??

We have these tools scheduled for release by the end of the year.
As for the 2nd gear prime deal, we have not yet looked into that but we will be looking into it.

Thanks
