1. you're not going to get 80/100 hp out of the flash. Noone else who's bought has gained that much. That's a best case, ideal conditions, manipulated dyno advertisement.
2. you're not going to get another 20hp from a K&N CAI. In the real world, NOONE that I've seen (and I've seen a few) has gained more than 10 rwhp from a CAI. Again that's best case scenario with someone who knows how to make a dyno show gains.
Get before and after dyno runs with these 2 mods. Then bring your sheets back to this thread and post them up.
That is correct that you will not see 80 peak HP on a back to back dyno run as it is not peak hp and tq, everything comes in sooner, etc.. IF it was only a minimal gain it would not make much difference to these trucks, ask everyone with a QC that has the DC Flash, and it is jekyll and Hyde. I went from getting my ass kicked by the charger to beating it by 2 lengths. To make that much of a difference in a 5700+ LB truck is substantial. Dynos are only good for tuning, take it to the track and you will see the HP gains just from your trap speed..
I was never told about any 60/80/ hp settings, it was based on what octane i would be using, there minimal timing differnces with the flashes per Dan..
Ok, Ok, Probably I'm getting to Optimistic with my truck. But I love to beat most people out there. I love to pull up against Boxters, 350 z's and s2000
and humiliate them. We all cool guys! Viper alley is the best
Hey guys I'll have my dyno done by march 5th. And the following week They want me to take it to the track. They reccomended Borla Cat back with high flow cats. Any suggestion guys? I want the meanest sound and best performance. Like I said I'm sorry I got carried away on this thread about the past stuff. I was just hella Excited. Thanks Talk to ya later.

What does Jekyll and hyde mean? By the way guys your right. Dan said the that with the flash I will feel the 80 hp between 3,000 rpm and 5000 rpm.
The gains are through the power band.
The prices must have went up, I paid DC 600 for the flash and 300 for the new PCM, it was 100% worth the money, made this truck run the way it should have from factory, and the numbers are consistantly around 80hp and 100ft lbs of TQ.
I went from getting walked on by my folks SRT-8 Charger, to pulling it by 1.5- 2 full truck lenghts in a 1/4 mile. That was when my truck only had 900 miles on it. With 3100 on it now, it is starting to break in..
Again, it is worth the money on a QC!
I thought you said the numbers aren't 80 hp and 100 ftlb of torque??
In Your other comment.
jekyll and hide means it is 2 different animals, the 80 HP is not going to show on a dyno, the best way to see the gains is to take it to the track and do back to back runs.. I have said the performance difference is about the equivalent to 80/100 per Dan, and from my results I have no reason to doubt him..

OK, its 10:30 here and I just got done with the install and a short drive....
...OH SHIT...this makes a huge difference. Spun through 1st and 2nd and chirped in 3rd.
I'll dyno this week twice, first with the old then with the new PCM to see what the difference is and I'll also compare to last years dyno.

Yes!!!! Finally somebody answered my question! Joel man ur are God!
Please tell me It puts you back in the seat now
errr....ahhhh...It's alot faster and you can really feel how hard it pulls but its still 5800 lbs. I am sure its gonna run in the high 12s but fast is a relative term. The PCM flash was well worth the cost! Total was $1018, $600 for the flash, 350 for the PCM (used I believe) and $68 for the thermostat.

Hey Joel, Motor trend says it weighs 5450-5500lbs. So I hopr your not 300-400lbs. No Offense Bro
Hey Joel, I just ordered Caltracs Tractions Bars for this beast. They say its gonna hook up Immediately. They are In lancaster, Ca. Speak to keith he is really cool. $339.00 plus tax for a Pair. I think its a bargain
my best run with the 91 flash, mopar headers, no cats, magnaflow and cold air intake was 12.9...that was with one set of golf clubs, two baby seats and being driven by a friend who has never driven the truck before

He Zen, You Told Me that before. Does 100 Octane tune help. Or lets say your just lucky and you get the best wheather and the best launch, I think it will get into the high 12's acoording to Joel with the just a Pcm flash and Cold Air.
