I have been looking at the TRINITY from Diablo and they finally have it for the 5.7!!!
Does anyone have this? Worth the extra $250-300 for it? There are some really cool options and features on it...and I like that its a diag. tool as well!! Any and all info appreciated...

I would have bought it if it would have been available for us back when I got the Predator.

Holy cow $620. Is this thing pretty much like the predator and a dashhawk all combined in one?
Yeah just read up on it on the site... pretty sick!

Maybe we can get someone with an SRT to chime in about this and if it's really worth it.

From what I understand the main difference is the color display, the monitoring, and timer capability. The tunes are the same. My opinion it's not worth the money. But if thats your thing then go for it.

Just picked mine up today! :thumbsup:
I will install it tomorrow and we will see from there. :cool:
According to Diablo I will be able to:
Idle RPM Drive/Neutral - I'm bumping this up to 750
Rev Limit Drive/Neutral - Moving this up to 6,500 Limit
MDS disable - Will play around with this one
Shift Points - Will set these according to new powerband
Speed limit - Will be set to NONE if it will let me...lol
Modify Torque Management - Will be reduced as much as possible!
And what ever other goodies it can do! :thumbsup:

You can adjust the same parameters that you could with the predator nothing extra other then a colored display and a couple other things.

Exactly, as I understand it's like a DashHawk and Predator all in one. Hopefully it works in my 05. :cool:

Keep me posted. I know the predator doesnt work for all 05 jeeps and dodges right now..
That is one expensive dashhawk bro.. lol

iEMS3 is standalone/integrated engine management. It doesn't mess with the PCM at all and the PCM cannot even see it. The iEMS3 just takes it's cues from the stock tune and adjusts them to meet what ever you program into it. Adjusting fuel by 2 millisec pulses throughout the entire powerband at 250rpm increments cross referenced with your vac/boost pressure, adjust timing, boost, NOS, Alky/Meth, Fuel Temp Correction, 3D fuel and timing maps, a absolute ton of stuff! All sitting on my laptop next to me...best way to describe it is just like the Fast and the Furious....lol
Plus you can switch the iEMS3 tunes on the fly!
With the Trinity I get to mod the PCM specs i listed above and have even more gauges/options than the DashHawk. I will not be messing with any other fuel/timing maps/tables as the iEMS3 does a way better job at that.

I own an expensive paperweight at this time. :mad: 08's might work but no go for an 05!
Calling their tech support is interesting to say the least. First time I was told to pick any vehicle and just go back later and change it, as an 05 Jeep is not listed in the Trinity's menu...but they advertise it for the 05.
Second time I called I talked to Mike and was told to choose an 06 Ram 1500.
I'm unsure at this point but I'm waiting for now, but we will see. :mad:

07-08 is not the problem. 05-06 is the problem due to the key cycle. So Brad this will work for you.

so its a diablo problem eh? because i got my trinity in, and it would not connect to my vehicle, diablo said it was because of the (old style) cable. they sent me a new one in yesterday, i tryed to connect it before my night shift started and get the tune setup but it would still not connect to the jeep. i was going to call this afternoon.....

You have to recalibrate it to the Car itself..
You need to connect it to your computer and download that file and run that little application
You dont need to buy the diablo cables, all you need is a serial to usb cable
http://www.amazon.com/RS232-Serial-Cable-Adapter-Converter/dp/B000NSDPUQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1258470065&sr=1-3 (http://www.amazon.com/RS232-Serial-Cable-Adapter-Converter/dp/B000NSDPUQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1258470065&sr=1-3)
Or any cheap 9 pin serial to usb... just dont get belkin cables

I think johan does all/most of the tunes. The 05-06 always had the key cycle issue. Glad I have an 08. I like the mds off feature the most.
Just dont turn into this guy (catsltd ) http://diablosport.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=18915 I ripped him a few times.
I usually read up on the forums before buying items, this usually it prevents me from getting pissed off if something doesnt go right.
Good luck!
Ps mike will not answer you if he has nothing to update or tell you. Try pm him you might have better luck. Again, your best bet is johan.

Can someone please provide feedback for their Trinity...I am really getting close to buying one so I would appreciate any and all info.
Off topic (kinda) but did they get the 05' glitches worked out?

You might want to talk to the SRT guys one this, I think they've had the Trinity available for longer than we have, and I can't think of anyone that does have a Trinity.
