I knew there were some pretty big gains I felt when I was data logging for Hemifever to get my custom tune just right....this just reconfirms what I was seeing from the logs....HemiFever is the man when it comes to e-mailed tunes

Pulls were in 85degree weather and 24% humidity

I must say these newer Dodge rams are hard to dyno espically if you have a Torque Converter...I wanna say I probably went through close to 15 pulls because even on the stock tune it just wanted to pull pretty funny on the top end maybe because it was just on the rollers vs the street. After talking to HemiFever (Sean) he told me something about a short runner valve that opens on the top end that usually makes late model dodges hard to dyno.... He might need to chime in to explain it a little more. I do have a couple of vids but I'm sure I those wont go up until tomorrow (gotta go to work tonight). Next up will be some track time's (maybe in 2 weeks) on these 22" wheels....depending on what I run/traction I might just buy some 17s or 18s with DRs for the rear.

so if i'm reading this right, the only difference between the 2 runs is one is stock tune and one is with the hemifever tune, both with all your bolt ons? 60+ hp difference??

My best stock run didn't get saved it was around 315hp/320tq (saw it in the first couple vids I took)....I did noticed on the stock tune I was running pretty rich (low to mid 11s) and with HemiFever's tune I had an a/f ratio of 12-12.2. I guess with the stock tune the computer can't adjust the A/F ratio properly without tuning with this many bolt-ons which I'm sure ended up hurting my baseline stock tune numbers. It's pretty impressive what HemiFever can do to optimize the tune to fit your truck vs a canned tune made for everyone.

Thanks yall.....obviously the gains are there as you can see it throughout the powerband vs the stock tune. Like I said out of about 15 pulls I did they had that funny dip and lose power (on the dyno only and not in the street) and comeback like crazy causing a spike so who really knows what I actually put down as peak numbers. All I need now is to get some 1/4 mile slips...the numbers that really only matter.

I've had two 2011's on the dyno. Both showed nice gains. The frst one I didn't think was accurate so I had this one done. Both were similar in gains. I am still skeptical lol. The other truck had much higher baselines though but the overall gain was about the same.

I believe the tq converter on this one was lowering the number since it was a dynojet and the converter won't allow the dynojet to grab a good load.

That is some seriously impressive gains from just a tune!

Wish I had the money to boost my '11 instead of selling it. lol!
