Hrmmm is it a 5.9? It's ok, maybe your reaction times were a little off. Some times a vehicle performs differently. Was the truck warmed up? Did you launch it right? A lot of factors. There's nothing wrong with it. Just make sure everthings is working correctly. Spark plugs, check the timing. A lot of little things can contribute to this. And wait, how much gas did you have in the tank? Ok let me know if any of these things are making sense or am I making an ass out of myself... lol

Depending on where you live and the conditions you face, that could be a correct time. Most of the factory R/T's running in Tucson at the 2002 Nats were running around 16.0-16.3. With just a K&N intake I was running 15.7 in Phoenix.
A CC is typically .5 slower than an RC because of the weight.

I've see a few CC R/T's at the strip and the stockers are running 15.9 - 15.5 thats at 80ft over sea level. I think your in the ball park, at least the best as I can tell with a G-tech. I haven't had the pleasure of playing with one yet.

death flash???!!!..hell if they did that, they might as well keep the truck...any way got mopar pcm on the way so they can flash the hell out of the stocker don't care...i did notice the stocker was reprogrammed before(wrote on pcm)what was that about?..my 00 R/T was the same way..oh well...one more thing...why is it that when you add a performance item or what ever to your vehicle to enhance power those service writers go nuts...they say(You should not do that, its hurting more than helping)and the big one is well dodge wont cover any work that might be needed in the future..hell i had to put back my IAT sensor in the manifold knowing that they would have kittens over it...i'd got lucky because mechanic working on my truck is a fello RT owner with gobs of work done to his truck so im sure im in good hands...

Pretty much any non stock part that you put on voids the warranty for the part replaced and can sometimes be used by scuzzy dealers to make you pay.
