It doesn't really add hp/tq. It's just frees up whatever power that's restricted from the manufacturer. Depending on your year truck, you probably have the death flash and torque management. So with an SCT you'll more then likely see a somewhat noticeable boost from originally tuned. At least I know I did anyway. I'm sure others will chime in too.

i have one for my truck, its noticeable in the idle. The truck sounds different when its in a tune over when its stock


The programs are very nice...truck pulls harder with a tune

mileage under 89 or 91 tune will go down obviously

never ran it on 87 tune, i always choose 89 tune


I dont really drive my truck anymore, so if your looking for one i might be willing to sell mine.....maybe

If I remember right, they work much better on the newer models. Something like 98 and earlier doesn't make a difference i think?

maybe, I notice a difference from stock tune to performance tune

my 98 seems to respond well to it. Im sure it is more noticeable in the hemi trucks over the 5.2
