I'd really like to get my 6.4 dynotuned using a Diablosport Trinity tuner I've already purchased from Speedlogix. Can anyone recommend a good MOPAR tuner in the NH/MA area that knows how to tune a 2011 SRT with a Trinity? If I have to travel further away, it's not out of the question, but I'd prefer to keep it local. Thanks for your help.:SM030:
I did see their site but it looked more like they did Chevys and Fords more than Dodge products. I used Performance Dyno in Concord, NH for my GT, but they don't have the software to do Dodges last time I spoke with Pete. I'll give these guys in Hudson a call to see what they can do. Thanks for the tip.

They are the only shop in northern MA, or NH, that I've heard 100% stuff about, but just like you said, I don't know where they stand on MOPAR. It probably wouldn't hurt to give them a call though, especially since you are familiar with their work.
The only shop that I would probably avoid is the place in Peabody, MA. They can definitely talk the talk for a while, but if you have a clue about things, you will realize they don't know to much if you really listen to what they say.
At this point, I'm looking to have it dynotuned using a Trinity. I've got ARH longtube headers with a K&N CAI that have thrown a CEL. It's been running lean and I know there's a lot of wasted HP as a result.
If I run into some money, then I'd like to add a Kenne Bell supercharger, but I think I'll save that mod for my NEXT Challenger in sublime green if/when that ever happens.
I had good experience with Pro Tree Dyno (err, Granite State Dyno). I brought my 2010 SRT8 there to have the Kenne Bell boost tamed. Dana contacted Kenne Bell directly, and using the KB Predator, were able to give me a gradual boost rather than the "light switch" boost coming from the default KB tune.
Hey ViperGeek. I went to granite state dyno yesterday and dana put my car on the dyno. He was telling me about a B5 challenger with a kenne bell they worked on. Was it yours?
I had my car dyno'ed there when it came out of storage. About two weeks ago now. Bone stock it pulled 406 HP and 401 TQ. That is my base line, so now as I change things I hope to see whether it really made any difference.
Hey SRT8NH are you going to Mohegan Sun 19 May? We are meeting at Mall of NH at 0830 and departing at 0900.
I didn't hear about a TO challenger but they said they dyno alot of challengers. I think they mentioned viper geek because I said I wanted to do a kenne bell. Basically I was there to do a baseline because I'm seriously considering a super charger.
I had not planned on Mohegan but it sounds fun. I'm pretty sure I have a job that weekend in Northfield, MA so I couldn't make it anyways. I'll let you know if things change
I called ProTree Performance & Dyno yesterday and made an appointment for a tune. They said they're familiar with the 6.4 since they've done a few already. They're pretty busy so, to get a Saturday, it's 6 weeks out.
Recently I was told that Dyno numbers can be misleading. Different Dyno's will produce different results, and, depending on how it is performed has implications. If this is true, is a Dyno only a rough idea as to how the drive train is performing? And, is the dyno only relevant to the drivetrain (with any modification perfomed) on which it is done? Meaning, one 6.4 with the exact same changes as another 6.4 - could/"most likely will" product different results?
Yes, different dynos will generate different numbers, but it's just like getting caught speeding by radar, stepping on different scales, or even watching different TV sets. Every manufacturer builds and does things differently, so there are variations in each and every one, especially if it is something that measures certain variables.
Nothing is perfect or absolutely exact in life. A dyno will give you real numbers, but they are never exact. The only way dynos might be "misleading", is if someone is getting dynoed just to brag about their HP numbers. That's when it comes down to which dyno was used. It is pretty well known that Mustang dynos produce some of the highest numbers, out of the more common ones out there.
There are also many things that can affect final numbers, from transmission, flywheel weight, rearend, to even tire sizes. A dyno number is just that..... a number.
The bottom line is a dyno, no matter which one, an idea of how the tweaks and changes a tuner makes in the tune affect the drive train's performance in real time in an empirical manner. There's no seat of the pants results involved. As changes are made during to dyno process, the tuner can see how air/fuel ratio, spark advnce, throttle response and are affected under various conditions. It's the best way to nail the best performance out of a drive train, providing the tuner knows what they're doing.
I always thought mustang dynos were more conservative, providing lower values than others, but I may be wrong.
