MMM- Modern Mopar Magazine... PG: President Pietro Gorlier

MMM: The most common criticism that we receive about Mopar Performance is the inability to “tune” the new 6.4L HEMI. We’ve even talked with several tuner shops that say Chrysler is not only missing out on millions of dollars, but that they’re also losing customers who are going to other OEMs that make it much easier to perform engine modifications.

Is Mopar aware of this? Are there plans to open up these cars so that tuners can perform mods? And might we see the availability of superchargers and turbochargers in the future?

PG: We are well aware of the tuning issue because we have been listening closely. In fact, I have received a great number of letters from consumers expressing their discontent.

What I want people to understand is that we spent a great deal of time ‘righting the ship’ here at Chrysler and we had certain priorities that needed our attention first. But make no mistake about it, performance tuning is absolutely on the map for us. In fact, we will likely be working with several aftermarket tuners in order to address our ECM encryption. A strategy is in the process.

When it comes to superchargers and turbochargers, we’re looking at them just like we are tuning. It is part of our strategy.

Bottom line: stay tuned.

It is a nice way to say "We are not making our encryption available any time soon, an we aren't giving you a supercharger either, but please keep buying our product"

Kinda makes the 5.7 more desirable.

you make a good point... is it "just" the 6.4 that is un-tune-able ??? Are newer 5.7s still okay with a DS Predator?!?!? I thought anything made 2011 and after had the 'rolling encryption' ????
Is that incorrect ?

I don't know about the 2011, but 2010 can be hooked up to the Predator.

Sounds good that "performance tuning is on the map," but I think that the guys with the 6.4 may be in for a wait.

I waited quite a while on the SuperChips for my 2003 Hemi Ram, I'm used to it.
