What does your tcms specifically do for the 5.7L chargers?
I would like to know what they do specifically before i make my purchase.
Do they raise the stall in conjuction with a 2600rpm torque converter? where is the shift point located?
i just need more specific information to make an informed decision. i have the money. just waiting on info.
Thanks guys!

i am not pointing fingers...nor accusing at this point.
i just want harder evidence of what these modules offer. my tcm/converter combo from stock blows chunks! i have always "tolerated" it but now there are choices. i want to know why i should buy one of your tcms over the mopar tcm that is to be released soon?
thanks in advance for any information....

Good morning, as far as definitive numbers I do not have that. What I have seen from those that have installed them has been good feedback.
The cars do need about 200 miles driven on them before the changes can be seen/felt.
The Stage 2 in a Daytona Charger was pretty impressive by seat of the pants... The owner will be at Cecil this weekend to see if his track times are better.
Each of the cars seem to react a little differently. I have yet to try one in a car with an upgraded torque converter however. I was going to see if Big Dave wanted to test one but he has an 05 build I believe so all he can test is the stage one.
The stage 2's work well for cars with build dates of 06... The 05 and 04 build date cars require the use of the stage 1... I have tried the stage 2 install in several of the older models with no luck.
All I can tell you is to contact the members who have the stage 2's and get their honest opinion... That would be your best feedback from non-bias owners who have been running them.
I think my favorite things about these TCM's are the fact they help my MAgnum and the other cars launch harder as well has put you back in the seat more when they shift.

Jason you say the stage II will not work with the 05 cars...is this true for both the RT & SRT?....I am also interested in seeing how it works with a higher stall sp converter since I have one ordered..

OK I am just looking for some more info. I recieved my TCM today and trying to decide what to do.
Rumor is that the stage 2 is the same as the just released SRT TSB. Is this true??
Or does the Stage 2 offer gains that the TSB will not address like the added stall speed and torque reduction??

Changing it is simple. I'm trying to find out if I just bought the TSB that I can get for free.
