Help Please! 5.7 Charger

Post by jhedge29 »

Hello!

This is my first time posting on here so please forgive me if I forget to include/ say information. I drive a 2014 charger r/t, auto, with a k&n CAI and have an SLP loudmouth 1 cat-back exhaust. I run 93 octane in it. I recently just purchased an intune for it and have played around with it a little bit and no matter what it seems like I am running into the same problem. It seems like the engine is being choked and that I am always fighting it to keep it up to speed especially when on the highway. This was not a problem when I got the car and it was bone stock. In WOT throttle the car acts normal, and I can tell that the mods have added some power (obviously), but the second the car gets more of a load on it, its not the same at all in a bad way. The car wants to stay in a higher gear and higher RPMs more often now which I understand isn't necessarily a bad thing but in my opinion it seems excessive (almost like I'm that guy driving around town who doesn't know how to drive a stick). I decided to put the car back to stock settings and just log data to get a better grasp of exactly what is going on. This is why I'm reaching out to someone for some guidance/ thoughts on what is going on and what I can do with the tuner and what tune would be the best one for me to go with because I do not want to hurt the car. My best guess is that the car is running lean in the lower RPMs, but that could be foolish of me to say as I'm not extremely experienced with tuners and reading the data.

Here are the most recent logs that I have taken and some help would be greatly appreciated. I know that the best option is to get it custom tuned as the canned tunes are not specific to each individual car, but I just want input until I can afford to have it custom tuned.

Again, if I forgot anything or didn't mention something I apologize. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer sometimes haha.
