SRT6 Tuning sale with Free remote cable - $399
Re: SRT6 Tuning sale with Free remote cable - $399
I have always found that on long trips cross the US that if I locked in at about 72mph the RPM would hover at 2700 and I typically got my best milage on those trips pushing 24mpg over a 800+ mile run. After the tune it look as if at 72mph the car now sits at 2500 rpm to hold that same speed. If that is what is happening and not a change in the guage then it could be that the car is using less fuel to create the power needed to hold speed . Over time/miles that is going to net some additional miles per tank. Keep in mind this won't really show up around town (atleast I am not seeing it) but if one is out on the highway locked in at a single speed for say a few hours then it should begin to show up in the mpg numbers.

Thank you for taking the time to write this up! Very helpful information!
Have you SEEN how heavy newer cars are getting? I don't think a 2-seat convertible with 300+ HP EXISTS that weighs less than these cars.
Unfortunately the Crossfire did gain weight over the SLK for some reason, but only about 100 hundred lbs. autos.msn.com lists the the following:
05 SRT6 Roadster 3328 lb
05 SRT6 Coupe 3240 lb
03 SLK32 AMG 3220 lb
That doesn't seem bad against a 370Z roadster at 3501 lb or a Camaro SS Convertible at 4190 lb!

2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT6:
15mph: 1421 RPM
CO2 measured: 14.7
O2 measured: 0.0
HC (PPM): (MAX ALLOWED: 55, average: 4) MEASURED: 0
CO %: (MAX ALLOWED: .50, average 0.01): MEASURED: 0.01
NO (PPM): (MAX ALLOWED: 437, average 16): MEASURED: 48
15mph: 1497 RPM
CO2 measured: 14.6
O2 measured: 0.0
HC (PPM): (MAX ALLOWED: 39, average: 4) MEASURED: 0
CO %: (MAX ALLOWED: .48, average 0.01): MEASURED: 0.00
NO (PPM): (MAX ALLOWED: 724, average 15): MEASURED: 50
So, aside from having more NO PPM than average, the Eurocharged tune does hit the mark for CA smog. In fact, the RPMs only go up by 76 RPMs to get from 15mph to 25mph which also shows some serious low-end gains in torque at low RPM engine speed differentials. That's the initial "feel" I felt after the tune... I stabbed the gas pedal and felt more seat-of-the-pants torque/movement of the car from changing throttle tip-in at low speeds.

Torque determines stump pulling ability.

OK, whatever. I read the numbers off the smog check. It was as stated. 76 RPM difference for 10mph increase in speed on the rollers. It's all computerized and measured, printed. Granted the rollers are way less resistance than a street/pavement, so it would be different on a street where the tires have different contact. Try to understand that this was a controlled environment test, required by California, not an actual "dyno". Drink some coffee and relax. Just providing fellow Californians some numbers to go by when their "time comes" for a smog check on 91 octane, using the Eurocharged tune, with stock motor.

thank you cudaman i think this info helps give us calif. drivers with the tune some insite....i know E/C has tunes for your upgrades and i had my srt tune redone after i did a 65 pulley, 55 air intake. and the retune did make a difference i could feel ...so what tune do you have?( just wondering if all the tunes will pass....and do we have to take all our motor upgrades off to pass? )
