    RAM 1500 Tuning Question

    I've got a 2004 Ram 1500, 5.7L hemi. Has anyone had and ECM tune done on a 5.7L and what difference did it make? I've talked to three companies that can do the EMC tune for my 2004 truck, but none of them felt that they would be able to produce a noticeable improvement.
