Random question.... I installed the Mopar 5.7 Cold Air Intake as well as adding a B2 Fabrication exhaust and was wondering if my dealer can do a performance flash tune for my Hemi 5.7 with eTorque? Has anyone heard of this or can it be done? I know that with GMC Trucks you can get a tune if you have their OEM exhaust and intake.

Any help or suggestions is much appreciated.

Your best bet is an Edge Pulsar. It can be removed before taking the truck in for factory service. I have one on my truck and wouldn't drive without it, advertised a 40 horse gain, I believe there are youtube dyno pulls to prove that .All I know is a huge seat of pants difference. Must run premium fuel when in performance mode though.

I love my pulsar, purchased it to get rid of MDS. But it definitely makes a difference. I purchased the trinity with it also, not sure it was needed. Then the mount made for a 2022 that doesnt work, i had to bend it quite a bit and cracked a little corner off. I need to take it back off and clean up the crack better.

My Pulsar should be getting here soon. I thought about the Trinity as well, but read it is mostly just a display and doesn't add anything. Is that true?

You can change the performance levels, thats all. So its really just eye candy. changing levels via the steering wheel buttons is easy. I didnt know this when I purchased. I just added a pic of the mount. I had to bend it almost a 1" and its that cheap cast aluminum stuff

Oh, it must have been your post I read about it then! Thanks. I think I'll just pass on it. One less thing for my wife to say, "Oh, what's that? When did you buy it?"

Well, that doesn't make sense lol. My tires are not much bigger than OEM, so they are only like 1.7mph off at 80mph. Not a big deal to me. Pretty sure I could do it through AlfaOBD without issue anyway.

If you follow these instructions, you can change the tire size through AlfaOBD and still retain the parking sensors. The calculated on-the-ground tire circumference for my LT275/65R20’s came out to 2672mm. My speedometer now reads spot on (up to the governor) with GPS, while still retaining full function of front/rear parking sensors. I have read where some have been unable to retain parking sensors when trying to use those instructions to recalibrate for tires larger than 35”s.

My tires are 285/65/R20s about 34.5" inches
