[QUOTE="Flex68, post: 7824687, member: 638503"] [B]Anybody got sage advice on a tuner for 2006+ Dodge Ram 1500 with 5.7L Hemi?[/B] My used '08 Ram 1500 quad cab 5.7L Hemi came with duals aftermarket, a K&N CAI....and a 13.5MPG on 89 octane gas addiction. I now am improved to 14.5-15MPG, locally, as long as I baby the hell out of it, but would sure like to see another +2 or +3MPG. I have been wanting to pick up a tuner to try to improve my fuel economy, but have been reading conflicting messages about buying/using one on the Hemi with the MDS system+torque converter clutch. (Most are just using a tuner or reprogram to "lose" the MDS, and also losing 1-2MPG by doing so) [B]Has anyone tuned their Ram and KEPT the MDS, or know anyone who has done so?[/B] [B]Gas mileage improvement noted? How much?[/B] [B]What tuner best for the Ram, and what basic settings?[/B] Thanks. [/QUOTE]
