Well, I'm just debating on this Power Programmer III from Hypertech or the
Mopar Computer. If everyone says Mopar will make a happy man out of me,
I'll do it. As I stated before, Exhaust, headers, msd, throttle body,
thermostat, injectors, and so on have all been modified. The more opinions
that better. Thanks everyone

Opinions???
If i'm not mistaken it removes the speed limiter and the HP gaines are 20-25
and torque is 25-30, probably more depending on the mods you've done. I'm
sure Frank would have a better idea, Frank are you out there?
