Default Anybody good with Hemi's?

Got a friend has a SRT8 Magnum.....wants to do some mods.

Can't really find that much info on the net about tuning......does anybody here know anything about the 6.1 Hemi?

He wants to do a cold air intake and exhaust. Will he gain anything without complementing the mods with a tune?

The owner of ALLUSA specializes in the newer Hemi's. I've seen a lot of work that he has done and it is good. Has a SRT8 Magnum in his shop that he's done all the work on. Name is Ted, give him a call.

buddy had someone put on a "tuner"

like a predator, or something. on his Hemi

it won't shift now at WOT, so basically, he paid ~$400 for a part to make him buy a ~$500 (or whatever the mopar TCM costs) part


so, YMMV.

Isn't the guy that used to be at AllUSA the same guy at HHP, which is now Low Country Speed? Forgive me... I can't keep up.

HHP has had some nice Hemi powered cars over there.

However, I have seen a white 1990 dodge ram with an All USA sticker on it. They must work on trucks.

We would be happy to look at your friends Magnum and help point him in the right direction. We have the best parts at the best prices for the new Hemi and the tuning to make it all work together. With our in house chassis dyno we can handle the project from start to finish. We also have built and tuned the fastest new gen Hemi's in the lowcountry. With that said your friend will pick up about 15 hp without a tune.

I was one of the owners of AllUSA. I went to work for High Horse Performance in Novemeber of 2009 and I opened HHP Carolina in March of 2010. The legal name of my company is Lowcountry Speed Shop LLC dba HHP Carolina. That maybe where the confusion came in.

You have to be careful when tuning with a Diablo tuner and making adjustments to the tcm or you can turn it in to a brick. We are Diablo CMR tuners so we know what to do to prevent this.
