    Gen 2 to Gen 4 Engine Modification

    Actually you took a different path than I had anticipated. I thought you actually dropped a complete Gen-4 module into your car- which we have done, and is technically possible, pending what year your car is; earlier Gen-2's are complicated with the filler on the module top. I could not tell...

    Gen 2 to Gen 4 Engine Modification

    If you just dropped that Gen-4 pump into the tank without modification.... you are going to be disappointed. There are a number of directions you could have gone, but dropping a Gen-4 into a Gen-2 without a very important set of modifications does not work out too well :)

    SCT Questions

    You nailed it, for the most part. I switched from working with them on the forums to working on the phone, and it rapidly got to the point where I was having them correct issues I found, while not even telling them the "whole story". I was spending so much time sorting out their software and...

    SCT Questions

    Again, the problem was that you kept beating a very dead horse, well after you were asked to drop it. We were plenty respectful to you until you kept on, and on, and on. It is what it is, and yes, the VA is very hostile. That's actually the point. With regard to the problem, we know full well...

    Bought a new PCM for an '06 coupe & the windows do not go down upon opening door.

    Yes, they can. You can send it here also if you need to do so. Yes, putting the old PCM back in and testing the theory is a sound method.

    Absolutely not, do it right,or dont do it at all. Disassemble the harness until you locate the issue, or just replace the harness. Dealer techs do however scare the hell out of me when it comes to work like this. Wiring is probably one of the most lacking skills seen at dealerships.

    SCT Questions

    I didnt even realize it was you until I saw this reply. My reply to you is the same as it would have been to anyone else. It is what it is. The VA thing has nothing to do with you as a person- I am sure you are a nice guy. But you hopped into a thread, without even reading it, WAY late to the...

    SCT Questions

    The number of people out there who truly understand this software can be counted on your hands. Most of them, are in the Viper tuning business. Unfortunately, giving away SCT tuning instructions does little more than handing out free knowledge which they had to pay for with their time and money...

    Bought a new PCM for an '06 coupe & the windows do not go down upon opening door.

    This applies to Gen-4 primarily where VIN is forced and programming is slightly different. The BCM in a Gen-3 is VIN-flashed like the PCM, and it CANNOT be changed no matter what PCM is put in the car with any VIN contained. His BCM should not have spontaneously changed its VIN due to a PCM...

    Bought a new PCM for an '06 coupe & the windows do not go down upon opening door.

    You must use a dealer to replace BCM. They will look at the car, confirm the issue, and order a BCM. Upon arrival of the new BCM, they must either install it themselves or you must surrender the old BCM before they will give you the new one. The BCM contains the VIN and Mileage, so they do not...

    Dodge preparing supercharged, Convertible Vipers for 2016?

    Agree. They are their own worst enemy most of the time, but this one has merit because they dropped the ball SO HARD on the last go around in every which way. They need the current cars to sell at all cost.

    No, its not. The O2 wiring is part of the front chassis harness.

    Basic PCM Flash Tuning, NO SCT NEEDED!

    Programming the VIN/Mileage is not a problem. However, the window Smart Glass feature is NOT controlled by the PCM, it is a function of the BCM [Body Control Module]. Your VIN Mis-Match may indeed be the root cause however.

    Basic PCM Flash Tuning, NO SCT NEEDED!

    Power Enrichment Delay timer keeps the engine at 14.7:1 AFR for 1.5-3.0 seconds after you go part or wide open throttle, then dumps the fuel in. It is an emissions saving feature. As you can imagine, 14.7:1 is EXTREMELY LEAN for a blower car. Also, the thermal shock of doing this abruptly and...

    xm with the RAH?

    Short of the one bracket, getting you the parts is not a problem. Finding a coupe w/Sirius option that would be willing to lend the Antenna/Bracket would go a LONG way towards duplication.

    xm with the RAH?

    Actually... a Dodge Ram kit will not work. Not even close. A Viper Specific kit does exist for the Convertible... just not from Dodge. I have never been able to get me hands on a Sirius antenna bracket assembly from a Coupe however to manufacture that version. Your car is SIRIUS/XM Ready, NOT...

    keep getting this damn code

    EVAP, Large Leak Detected. Check all of your EVAP lines for obvious cracks and damage. Try replacing Gas Cap. Besides that, you will need a DRB3 Scan Tool [Dealer Equipment] and a Smoke Machine to locate the leak if not obvious and hidden.

    MOPAR Performance ECU - What was it intended for?

    Correct. In all honesty, there is basically zero point to running a Moper Performance ECU these days with SCT and HP Tuners available. Also, some of the MPP ECUs end up in other years they were not intended for, and the result is often running slower processor hardware in a car that could...

    Wrong generation... this is the Gen-1/2 forum.

    MOPAR Performance ECU - What was it intended for?

    Very similar to a basic SCT flash. Slight fuel/timing changes, skip shift delete, and emissions monitors turned off.

    Check under the car first, and make sure it even has downstream O2 sensors plugged in before you go and pull the sills. Also check and see if the Skip Shift solenoid is plugged in, or if it is unplugged/has an eliminator plugged in its place.
