Tuner question

[Phylodog]

I would like to invest in a tuner but the thought of destroying my transmission concerns me. I have a S&B and a catch can but that'll probably be the end of my performance mods until the warranty expires. I've got 3:55 gears and currently running 34" tires but I'd like to go to 35's when money allows. I generally baby my vehicles but the rumble under the hood and increased pressure on my back is hard to leave alone from time to time.

I've read about the "weak" transmissions in Rams since I bought my 2002 years ago. I'd love to squeeze more performance out of my truck but can't afford to blow a tranny, I've got two kids in college, lol.

Go with a Bully dog hemi gt plus tuner. safe and great canned tune, if you want to venture a little a diablosport with the Hemifever custom tune.

^^^ Agreed. As long as you don't drive to crazy the trans should last.

Like said, as long as you go with a reputable tuner, then you wont have to worry about anything. All of the canned tunes are safe, and I have yet to run across a 4th gen Hemi owner that had transmission problems with Hemifever's tuning. Just don't try to play Ricky Bobby every time you get in the truck, and you will be fine.
