Tuning the 3.8L?
Is it even possible, and if so with what? Just curious because I feel like tinkering with stuff; Porting the throttlebody, intake manifold, maybe even a cam. But if tuning isn't possible I guess there's no point.
IMO the only real tune for the 3.8 is a super chips. Then of course supercharger is good, too but much more expensive. And don't forget that if you use larger tires regearing has a major impact in performance.
He is talking about tuning the computer based upon mods that he makes such as porting and a cam, not using an off the shelf "tune" and "tuner" from someone like superchips. As good as superchips is, you need a tuner like the Diablo to tune the mods the OPs is talking about. That's why RIPP, HESCO and the HEMI swappers use the Diablo.

From Superchips own forum, check out this link. They explain that their product does not do what the OP is looking for.

Again, there is a reason that RIPP and HESCO use the Diablo. The Diablo tuners allow you to take it to a dyno shop (that has the correct software) and make a custom tune based upon the individual engine's components.
I wish Superchips would lead the way and get a 2011 tune out, I'd be first in line to buy it.

Not a lot of debate about it.
