Are there any performance programmers that are compatible with 2013 Ram 1500? The only thing I am seeing is the Hypertech interceptor...doesnt appear to be adjustable to different tunes...

from everything that i have read diablo and bullydog are saying "shortly" haha which who knows how long that will be...your best bet would be asking one of the vendors on here, (matt from moes performance is always a good one) or just emailing/calling diablo or bullydog and asking them if they have an aprox date

Like mentioned, there aren't any real tuners out for the 2013's yet. The Hypertech is all hype and marketing, so I would save your money on that one. Your best bet is to start working on all the Bolton mods so that you can make full use of the tuner once it is available.

Do what Matt said. I know of a guy that slowed down in a 2013 Express at Maple Grove with the interceptor. He sent it back the next day.

I purchased my first Ram Hemi 5.7 ever. 2013...does the chip make a difference and fuel efficiency and is it worth the money?

I also have a 2013. Am I able to buy a tuner now and just wait for the 2013 update from Diablo? If so what tuner is the one to get? DS Trinity?

The Bullydog Hemi Plus is still the only tuner available for the 13's.

LOVE IT!! Easy to install and updates via the computer. Took about 15 mins to run the power wire and run the USB cable down behind the A pillar and about 35 mins to install the program in the ECU. I have had mine on Regular Tune for little over a week now and can DEFINITELY fell the increase in power, throttle response is much improved, and also gained 1.1 mpg. I can't wait to fill up with some 93 octane and download the Premium Tune.

395 HP in the 2013 Ram is a lot of power to start with. My main problem is not being able to access all the power due to not being able to turn the traction control off. Does any of the programmers make it possible to turn off traction control?

Thanks. I was really pissed to find out that I couldn't smoke the tires after I bought the truck. If I would've known that before I bought it I would have gotten something else.

Do the 13's not have a traction control button on dash? My 12 does. I can definitely light both my tires with mine turned off. If I launch too high of rpms when doing a 0-60 run, then it reeeaaallllyyyy lights em up.
