Hey all,

My 16 has basic bolt ons and a procharger. Prochargers stock tune also. I have the Diablo I2 that came with the procharger. Who is doing mail order trans tunes? Id like to change a few things in the trans

Any speed shop with the newest HP Tuner software should be able to tune it for you. Just had that done recently to my 8-speed pro-charged 1500 along with some long tube ARH headers and it REALLY woke it up!

How's the tranny holding up? Any weak links you found? Just curious as I've got a whipple on the way for my 17.

Perfect. No concerns at all. The ZF8 is a great trans used in high horsepower applications all across the globe, I have no concerns for future. Now i also dont drag race this truck or anything, just a putt around daily

Ya I'm not going to be drag racing mine either, just to beat up on SRT8s lol.

I know with the whipple the engine will be exceeding the 700nm torque rating of the 8HP70, but that's also a constant torque rating. It's likely also conservative considering the hellcats 8HP90 is rated for 900nm which is about 660 ft/lbs and the hellcat makes 650 ft/lbs.

I don't have really any worries either just like to hear other people's experiences. Even if it does have issues, it'll be ok, being a dealer tech has some perks.
