<< Steven, what do you mean about having it resettled? The rev limiter can
be
bumped up or that the powerband is shifted? As far as Leach's unit goes, he
can change fuel maps, rev and speed limiter, and timing, correct? What are
the
impact to:
1.) Pinging (I know Will has no problems, but anyone else?)
2.) Power (what are the gains, and where)
3.) Fuel Economy (also, do you HAVE to run 93, or is it only if you play with
the timing x no. of degrees?)
AND WHY THE HELL DOESN'T HE HAVE A WEBPAGE. Sorry, but I want to talk to the
guy and don't have an outlet, so how about contact info instead - somebody?
Another thing that has irked me for a while has to do with Dodge's 4.7 Dyno
picto-makebelieve-graph. If you go to the website and check it out, the
torque
curve is very nonlinear, which looks like tuning for power and economy in
different rev bands, but it's really funky. Can anyone that's looked at a
real
4.7 torque (not hp) curve comment on Dodge's accuracy?
Also, does anyone know what's been said about the 4.7 H.O. changes, if
anything? I hate the idea of the newcomer 3.7 making only 20 horses less,
given the nearly-identical design and I want to make a H.O. when it happens.
Okay, (catching my breath) I think I'm done

Yes and including the rev limiter or you can have it resettled at a higher
RPM range.

Matt, does the Mike Leach reprogram get rid of
the speed limiter? Is this for the 4.7s only? Cost?
Sorry for all the questions, but need to know.
Thanks
