Has Anybody had Good or bad experinces with any of these Folks? Any Others? Will the Hemi run at idle on the stand with out the transmission wired up? Or Do I have to have the Computer programed to Test run?

I used 5.7 04' man. tranny puter flashed to run my 6.1. simple hookup. Also, if I remember, it really only needs cam and crank position sensors hooked up to run.

I had a few questions during the install and Chris from Hot Wire was great and answered all of my questions. They also flashed the computer for me

By the way it will start and run with a factory flash. I ran mine for a month like that with no problems. It just runs a lot stronger with a custom tune. 69 Barracuda 70 Cuda 70 Cuda 70 Cuda Conv. 70 T/A Challenger 70 Sport Fury GT 71 Demon 5.7 Hemi 72 Demon

I can't find a used one advertised (ebay etc), but a few yards have a few versions of the manual trans computer, so I need to know which works (if there's a difference). Any help is appreciated.

I called Chris at Hotwire 479 243 9115 He tells me that they can now Flash the Auto ECU's and make them perform as well as the 2004 manuel ECU's. He is a very helpful Guy. The other folks I spoke with said I would have to buy a 2004 manuel ECU for them to be able to Flash. Chris and somebody else I spoke with said that the 2005 Dodge 1500 ECU is the best to have. I really did not grasp why But I hope it helps.

Now with the new technology it is not needed... The 6.1 hemi computers (auto version) apparently can be flashed too, by Dave at B&G. At one time Chris Squire told me his flash was not very performance orientated. Meaning he could make it run well, but if you wanted more power, revised rev limiter, etc, B&G was better. Again two to three years ago... justin Interested in having you car wired? Drag car, street car, EFI swap? PM for details

I questioned this, since the webpage actually states "yes we can make an auto computer into a manual" and was told it was still better to get the ram computer.

It really sounded good to hear my Wiring Haircut Running. I am sure I will be asking for more advice in the future as I proceed to fit it in the car and hopefully get a 5 speed to row gears with. Thanks again.

You have to sign up for an account to access them though. From what I could find there are multiple 2004 manual trans part numbers including 56029035AA 56029147AA 56029151AA 56030033AA 56031034AA Quote: Anyone have the Chrysler part number for that 2004 ram manual trans computer?
