I have a friend who is realy unhappy with the shifting of his newer Charger. Is there a known good source in the RTP area of NC I can refer him to?

Not to state the obvious, but this sounds like a dealer issue assuming it's still under warranty.

Answer from the dealer

"That's the way it's suppose to be"

I think Les had the some complaint with his station wagon! I am making a few calls to see if I can find someone that does it.

One of these can make a huge difference, don't buy it from there though, it can be had for cheaper elsewhere.

I've got a buddy down in Smithfield who built a twin turbo Challenger, and he had all his tuning work done in Virginia Beach, IIRC, because there wasn't anyone really good any closer. He's pretty meticulous and well researched, so I'd generally trust him on those matters. Let me know if you want me to find out his guy up there...

This was from Nov, 2010:

Quote:
I took my Challenger to Dyno Tuned Performance in Hampton Roads, VA (near Virginia Beach). Brent is the tuner up there and seems very knowledgeable. The website is www.dtpracing.com and the phone is (757) 549-3966.
