You won't have to wait until 2019 to see cummins up power output. I no doubt believe they will up power for 2018 model year to regain torque lead.
What's ram going to do to improve the 68rfe to handle the extra power? We also know mild tuners wreak havoc on the cummins head gaskets!
Seams like it going to take some serious investment to take it to the next level.
1)They don't have to upgrade the 68rfe, they have the Aisin.
2)a canned tune isn't factory programming. A canned tune likely is just adding fuel. From what in have read, without changing VGT turbo vane geometry cylinder pressures will rise. If a proper tune is written you shouldn't have issue.
3)torque management is also an everyday acceptance on all the diesel engines to allow the rest of the drivetrain to hold up to the massive numbers current diesels put out.
