    It's been little over a year since purchasing my '17 T/A Challenger 5.7 w/6 speed manual trans. Now it's time to start with upgrading performance to enhance HP, torque and looking for exhaust upgrade to give a deeper, aggressive sound. I have been looking into upgrading my Cold Air Intake, exhaust and adding a tuner. Any suggestions?

    Blasting Bob’s Kit was cheap, and easy to install.

    As for a Tuner, I picked up a Deoblo in-tune off Amazon.
    Made a difference, but really wanted it to adjust the Rev Limitor down, to keep me from playing so hard with it on the way to work.
    Getting an average of just over 21mpg now over the last 2000 miles.
    Taking it on a road trip tomorrow. As long as there aren’t any Mustangs or Vetts out, I should pull the average up.

    Thank you for the information
    I have been waiting for feedback on the Diablo. I can get through my job and it has been taunting me with the deep discount I get.

    If you have a software contact, I would love to talk to them to understand more about the advanced tune features.
    Pisses me off they have a 93 octane easy tune, but not in the advanced tune. But the standard Diable Advanced sesames to be working well.
