I was a good mood today after working from 11pm-7am 9 days in a row. I had the Mitsubishi Eclipse passing me around the curve going the oppisite direction and then something out of the cold blue sky comes. I see this black, yellowish object coming toward me and thought it was a bug or something that wasn't going to do any damage, instead it turned into stone and made a direct hit to my windshield. So I got one of those clamp chips, which pisses me off. So here is some pics after I got it filled in. Someone doesn't love me. Here is some pics.

The only problem is that they are located in Germany and guess how many Calibers they have to test there?? Well its not many so now were finding out all the bugs but we can just send our ECU's to a local shop of theirs in Cali that flash the tunes to our car when they come out with updates that fix/add things to the flash.
I'm kinda surprised there has been less of an aftermarket response to the CSRT-4s when it comes to tuning. Everyone knows what an NSRT-4 is capable of with a good tune, bolt-ons, etc. and I'm sure it's no different with the CSRTs (hell even Stage 1 they've got a lot of go ). I saw the number 5000 and thought "wait, that's about the same production numbers as the SS/TCs" but then I remembered Dodge offers the CSRTs worldwide whereas the SS/TC market is limited to Canada and the US if I'm not mistaken so yes, much more centralized.

Too bad the company offering tuning out of Germany doesn't have the option of a kit (similar to Trifecta or HP Tuners) instead of you having to take the ECM to a dealer to pick-up the "canned" (lack of better term) flash so you could work out the kinks yourselves and get it running the way you expect it to.

You sir are dumb as ****.

The good thing is GM paid back the money they owed.

Government Motors is what I call my other car, 2010 ls3 camaro. Watch out for the new stangs as the 5.0's will be impressive out the box.

Yes GM did pay back the money they owed but they paid it back with another loan . Yes the 5.0 mustangs will be great just as long as FORD doesn't screw that up so keep your fingers crossed!

Just Wondering if u know how to pop clutch or brake boost maybe power shift? If u answered no to all 3 of those u probably have what we like to call the "bad driver" mod if your gonna race someone granny shifting out at 6k is not gonna cut it, how bout a good driver? You will be surprised how much faster your car pulls and performs with a good driver.

I just read the beginning of this thread

I see you petered out after 90..yep, our cars will fall off in 3rd gear there (around 5800RPM). There are some HTP guys here that have tuned their cars to hall ass from 60-100, especially with E85. He had more HP than you for sure and that proves it. I wonder if you would have done better short shifting into 4th at 5800RPM..since you were gonna have to shift up anyway? Hard to tell..prolly still would have lost.

the 03 Dodge SRT-4 was the same way in third gear it would fall off with the TD04. That's why people go out and ****** up couple of 50 trims and I don't know where the K04+ fits in.
