Tuning worth it?

[NailBomb]

Hey guys. I have a 2011 SRT 392 Challenger and was thinking of getting it tuned. It has a Magnaflow catback only. Any real world experience with tuning a stock car?

How much faster do you want to go

 

[vortecd]

There is about 20 hp gain on a 392 with a tune

Agreed. That 20 hp in a car that weighs 4300 or so pounds just won't make a lot of difference, especially on the street.

@Speedy!

Isn't this your old, old car?

Biggest difference is a tune will wake up that 5-speed auto and dial back tq management. Measurable power gain might be low, but "feel" will be noticeable I bet.

Welcome to the forum!


Your 2011 392 is not like a Hellcat.

Your Trans would be a Nag 1

Have you added mods or planning to do so? Because adding mods and supporting parts would only make it worth Tuning you Challenger.

I had a 2010 6.1 Hemi SRT built and Tuned by Joshua Schwartz owner of https://highhorseperformance.com/

Check out the link to their website and you will see a Plethora of Modern Hemi parts. HHP has their known packages that work best with a 392.

Just depending on what kind of HP you are looking to gain.

The SRT Engineers really built and solved many prior SRTs issues with the Hellcat.
