2019 WB Redeye
#1
Hi, figured I'd post an introduction. We picked up a 2019 Redeye WB a few months ago. Had a 2014 SRT8 before it and made the jump to the RE. Grew up working on cars with a dad as a mechanic, was pure Chevy guy until we got the SRT8. The RE is a work of art - a fantastic machine.

So far it has been a fun car, more my wife's car than mine, hard to wrestle the keys from her. Haven't done too much to it yet, delete exhaust from the cats back, put a diff brace and MTs on it, and swapped the PCM out for likely HO tuning in the near future.

Wife made 17 1/4 runs back to back on Saturday, consistency running 10.3-10.4, best time was 10.347. Looking forward to get it to drop into the 9's.

I have enjoyed reading the wisdom of the forum over the past few weeks. Capture.JPG

Welcome! 17 passes in 1 day you got your money worth that day. Before swapping the pcm did you pull your stock file? Just the way its worded it sounds like you swapped the PCM and haven't tuned yet.
The 19+ years the stock file has to be pulled first. Unless that's only for Diablo and doesn't apply to HP tuners.

Yes, loaded the stock tune into the new PCM once installed. Went through the instructions to link the security, had to force it through twice, but overall easy to swap. Dodge gives just barely enough slack to pull the harness of the PCM, talking down to to the millimeter it seemed.
