Its a much longer install on my 2013 challenger than my 2012 ram 5.7, maybe 30 minutes. Everything loaded fine the first time !

2013 Hemi Challenger RT here,
I downloaded my new software and had it in the car, MDS off, tuned and running in less than 25 Miniutes.. no kidding. Now I am just "fine tuning" and playin with it too, everything else. I LOVE THIS THING!! Its great!!

30 minutes? Man I guess the days of a 5 minute switch are over. I'm not sure that's worth the trouble. Are we talking if I install a tune, 30 minutes, then want to go in and adjust parameters, that would also take another 30 minutes?

Wow,... That's not what I said At All.
I said, It was about 25 min TOTAL to get out the DCX and download the update the
thing and hook it up to the car. Then tune the car, and go back in the tuner and tweak
Throttle pressure and shift points and turn off the MDS.

things get misunderstood in text I guess, thanks for spelling it out for me. My tuner is acting funky now, I'm done with it til I call support.

The longest is the first time you write the tune. If you need to change to a different tune or make adjustments the tool will only take a few minutes to do so. you will find this to be true on every device, the 13's files are MUCH bigger than they used to be.
