Not without a little more miles and also knowing what kind of gains can be had.

I just have a few questions. Did you tune with the flashpaq after you installed or befor? Was it just plug and play? I ask for the sake of pure data. I interested in this for a stock tune app.

I have had the flashpaq installed for almost a year prior to this install. I changed nothing after the install. Did not even disconnect the battery. I just bolted it on and drove away, so yes it is plug and play. If you are going to use the stock air box and tubing then you will need an adaptor like the Spectre Cold Air Intake 4 Inch To 3 Inch Reducer Coupler. If you have a CAI then you may not need the adaptor like I did not need it.

That's a ton to ask for from the end user and I'd be every bit as happy with some superchips 0-60 data acquisition. In fact, I'd be happy just knowing that there aren't any CELS or DTCs after a couple tankfuls as I'm sure it will bring a modest amount of power.

Sorry to be a buzz kill, but we all know that dealers can be real jerks...knowing that they would have to prove that this directly caused a failure to something engine-related, can anyone foresee dealerships giving hell to people who put this on? JPop, any ideas?

Also, what kind of gains did you get when you put the throttle body spacer in, mostly low-end rpm's?

Cheers!

The stock one looks really small next to the Viper one.

It is a noticeable improvement, but don't expect 20 hp out of it. Overall, I am happy with the purchase.

Mopar part # 53032837AB got mine for only $135 bucks!!!
Thanks for the information.
