Default Jet pcu

MOPAR Action did tests comparing OEM-ACR,JET,AF/X, MOPAR Performance PCMs way back in maybe 1998 and the JET offered no performance gains. At that time the AF/X street and AF/X strip PCUs had the most (marginally)to offer over the MOPAR Performance. However the AF/X were pricey and you needed to send in a PCU for reflashing. The MOPAR Performance PCU was next in line, no need to send in a PCU, was good for about 10HP, faster timing ,and raised the rev limiter to 7500 RPM and the speed limiter to 145 MPH. I have the MOPAR in my DOHC,MTX Neon and am happy with it.

MOPAR Action from 1998 and the comparison test of PCMs, also the AF/X is unlimited. As to how do you know how fast, take her on the 101 north of Scottsdale, AZ and the photo speed cameras will record for you (at a price).
