So where do you get this converter and what does it cost?
BTW several employees at the dealership in Lampasas claim that 6000 miles is
required for complete break-in on the Hemi and it won't make rated power
until about then. Does this fly by wire system limit the power by not
allowing full throttle at any time and/or reduce power during shifts?
