    2010 dodge caliber 2.0

    I have been spending the last but of 3 hours looking for tuners that support my second dodge. HP tuners is the only one that does, so I have a few general questions about the ease of using the tuner. First off-- does the VCM suite come with pre-loaded tunes that you can load on to the vehicle? if so does the pre loaded tunes keep it within emission compliance? I checked the supported vehicles list and HP does support the 2.0 just trying to get a general feel for what to expect. I have a DS trinity on my ram with a custom tune just for the ECM and no TCM support. So if in the end I just buy some more credits and I will tune my ram as well.
    I own 2 mopars-

    1) 05 ram hemi--custom tuned with DS trinity--not for much longer, V1, Laser interceptor 8.9

    2) '10 Dodge caliber (not tuned), Escort Redline, All stock for now.

    It does not come with anything preloaded or "canned" tunes.

    HPT is made so you the user have to change everything yourself. It's not something to take lightly and takes many hours/days/months or even years to know and understand everything.

    I always say it's worth your time if you want to learn about how different vehicles work and function. There is a huge difference between tuning a GM and a ford or a dodge, each one takes a completely different approach to tuning.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
