Both the USPS and UPS stopped by the house today dropping off some sweet upgrades for the 07' Grand. My Jeep parts man in VA shipped me a MOPAR cai and a few other goodies. A speed shop in MA sent me a diablo predator tuner. Of course I wasted little time in installing them both.

The goodies:

Don't really know how it feels just yet as I had some other things to do tonight. Will be taking it on a little run tomorrow and will certainly give my impressions afterward! Sounds pretty sweet though. :D

It backed up the factory tune and installed the 93 performance tune without a hitch. Started right up afterward without setting off the check engine light. Seems to be working just as it should. :D

Drove it for about 15 miles this morning with an even mix of highway and city driving. Don't know if it was the intake, the tune or the morning temp of 37ºF but whoo hoo the hemi has been transformed! :D

The throttle response is much better, the shifts crisper and there's no longer any lag prior to shifting. Crusing required very little pedal pressure but oh boy when I stepped on it to pass someone on the interstate, the engine roared and I was up to 85mph before I knew it. And best of all, it doesn't look like my mpg took too big a hit. :thumbsup:
