Was just wondering if they are getting close to release for the 2013's? I'm sure they are trying to avoid a BD situation as that's unnecessary bad press but some of us want to use guys like HF or WL for tunes...

I'm in the same boat as you, its super tempting to just want to get a bullydog, but I really want to wait to be able to get the custom tune support with diablo, I think it will be worth waiting for..

Def worth waiting for. BD sounds like junk to me. I haven't heard a single person happy with the results. I emailed diablo about a month ago. Reply stated they were aiming for a summer release. Fingers crossed, I think we're close!

I have always bought diablo tuners for my srt8 and never had a problem with them and getting customs tunes done so I will be waiting patiently for it to be released

Definitely happy with my BD, but I have a 2012.

Good looking truck, would hold back the temptation though for a while until they hash out all the bugs and knock out some other mods, just a thought.

I think he's speaking specifically for the new 2013 BD

True, but I'm sure they'll get the 2013's figured out as well. They did not remove any torque management on the 2013 tunes yet which IMO is the biggest problem. For example, a guy on another forum installed the BD on his 2013. You can watch the timing on one of the gauge screens on the unit, when he does a launch his timing backs off to -15 for a bit. Mine stays around 20 on a lauch. Big time power loss retarding the timing that much.

I like the BD on my 2013. Makes it run and shift so much better. They just had a new update a week ago. Really seems to help. I have it shifting now at 5900 rpms. Also traction control off and mds off. The biggest change has to be the trans. Feels like a shift kit now. I do think they are still working on TM. I watched the timing at WOT and it dropped to -5 when switching from 1 to 2. So on the 2012 BD they have TM fixed??
