well it says 97-99 but i guess if your PCM wiring harness has the 2 connectors it might work

just get one fora 96...better safe than sorry

you'll have problems with map voltage codes and may not have operable cooling fan relay

95 pcm, 96pcm, 97-99pcm are all different

If you have a DOHC, it will work but WON'T turn your fans on. You can swap the pin so it does operate the fan or you can hook up a toggle switch to turn your fans on.

I saw a huge gain from the mopar pcm.........money well spent!!!!!!! You can get them for around $250 (I think) from modern performance. A new factory pcm from the dealer is around $600 last I checked. Another option is the AFX RACE pcm. It has the biggest gains but is around $650 from Howell Automotive. BTW: You don't want to use a performance computer if you plan on running boost. That's why I traded my mopar pcm for a RRFPR. Also, the mopar pcm's are only for mtx in case you have an auto.
