I've used the Predator and Trinity on my Neon SRT-4 for years with no issue, but just got a Caliber SRT-4, and am trying my hand with the Trinity on it. Anyway, first the basic info:
2008 Dodge Caliber SRT-4 (stock except for Mopar air filter and NGK 1 step colder plugs gapped down to .027)
Trinity T1000
Part: dcx_gas
Serial #: 6K0GX8E-1
Version: v.1r13d
I'm using the Performance 91 tune (because Cali). The power increase is noticeable, but I've been having an odd issue with jerkiness during accel, in different gears, at WOT and also partial throttle (like 7 PSI for instance). Boost shows steady, but the accel will randomly stutter, and I will feel a noticeable loss in power. I'm not seeing anything odd with throttle voltage, knock, or boost, but I also don't see as many PIDs on the Trinity I can monitor compared to the N-SRT. It's done it with 2 different tanks of gas (91 octane). When I load the original stock tune back on, the problem goes completely away. Going by a similar post I read, I switched the plugs to 1 step colder, and eventually brought the gap down to .027 with no change whatsoever.
Last night I loaded the Performance 91 tune back on, and tried lowering boost by -2% across the board. Also, I added +1% fuel across the board, and brought the rev limit from 6500 to 6700. I also noticed the vehicle speed limiter was set to 12800, so I changed it to something normal like 170. Anyway, this morning I started the car, put it in first and let the cold, high idle coast me out of the garage like I do every morning, and down the street before realizing the throttle was all f**ked up. When I blipped the throttle, it went down instead of up, and now it was idling at around 500 RPM. When I tried to give it gas, it almost died, and finally did, just because I was trying to frantically get the car moving and out of the road. Was able to get it parked, and now it wouldn't let me reset the tune and reload it. Said the tune failed and it had to reload the original. Long story long, I ended up 30 minutes late to work waiting for it to load the original tune back on. Just wondering what's going on, or what I'm missing...
