So guys been waiting awhile to do this. Had the trinity from Diablo with custom tune from HEMIFEVER on my 2011 1500 and loved it totally different truck.

Fast forward to now. I have a 2016 2500 and just have been impatiently waiting to custom tune it.I'm gonna use my old Trinity and just purchased PCM from Moes with HEMIFEVER tune. Once again Matt was great to deal with i get most of my stuff from him.

I will keep all you guys updated on the results. I'm gonna run the 93 oct tune from Diablo for a day or two and see the difference from stock. Then I'll run the HEMIFEVER tune from Sean with MDS turned off and see the real difference. Also the 93 oct tune.

All my mods , Moes 87 mm throttle , K&N cold air intake thanks to you guys on the forum picked them up barley used. Also 4.56 gears and cat back exhaust. And now finally will have the trinity combined with the unlocked PCM.

So I ran the diablo tune 93 oct for 2 days. I noticed a difference. Throttle response was better and shift points slightly better.

Now I have the HEMIFEVER 93 oct tune installed and have to say I'm not disappointed. Throttle response is great with Sean's aggressive adjustment. And this big truck just flat out hauls ass. Shift points much better. And finally can reset my speedometer for my 37 inch tires. I'm still waiting on Sean to read my log but so far running strong.

Very nice. If u don’t mind me asking what’s the price of the replacement PCMs? My 18 would need one and the tuner but if I do it... going rear mounted turbo and not anytime soon.

I'd love to do all this stuff but hard to give up the 100k drivetrain warranty

On my 11 I broke 2 front drive shafts just put the stock tune back and they never said anything and fixed it. I'll do the same when I go in for service just swap my PCM. But in the end you have to pay to play if you get caught.

For them to not honor the warranty, they have to prove the part caused the failure. In my lifetime Max Care warranty, it states 2” of lift is allowed. Most bolt ones are fine, headers won’t cause an issue, they may try and blame something on an over oiled air filter... a tuner is risky, but like stated above - Return it to stock before going in.
