As far as the throttle body. I just got back home from my drive. There’s a slight delay from time to time when you blip the throttle. it’s very rare but it’s there.

I would say the throttle no longer lags, it just suffers from a slight delay from time to time. Maybe that’ll go away the more I drive it, I don’t know.

I know you’re looking to make up your mind about investing in the Soler do I’ll give you my opinion.

I would do it man, it’s not an expensive mod and it’s not hard to do the swap yourself. I think it was just over $200 if you do the core exchange.

The difference is definitely noticeable. I used to get annoyed at the throttle lag so it was worth it to me.
Yeah no problem. I bought the tool because its handy to have. It requires you to buy a programming subscription for your vin. $40 for two years of access to your vin. I have three Chevys though so worth it. Especially for things like module updates. I have the Ford VCM 2 and IDS for my Fords and MicroPod 2 for Chrysler. I have an 18 ZL1 like you not 1LE I also have a 16 Hellcat like you . That was funny to see.

I dont know if it is placebo or not but I feel there is less of a stutter from a dead stop. I need to drive it more to really see. Seems like it so far. Maybe they adjusted the slip fro acceleration. When On the eLSD screen you can see the meter peg to 30% for some reason sometimes. Guess they slip the differential to prevent clutch damage and slippage in the transmission.

If you were in Dallas I would help you out. The MDI2 can be had for anywhere from $600 to $1000 new. Then you have to set it all up on a windows PC. I use My surface pro for all of this in my garage.

There is a webpage you can go to and enter your vin and get that calibration list for your car. Its very handy and you can see what calibrations are there. Only thing is you have to know what you currently have. There is no way to know without the tool.
