Default apparently they make jack squat for my truck

anyone know the difference between a jet performance chip for a 98 3.9L ram and one that would be made for a 94?
the way i see it is, its the same engine, the same size truck, and the same model, i dont think they changed anything until after 2000
but then again i might be wrong and a chip made for a 98 could really eff up my 94
any input is all some

they make all kinds of stuff for your motor... 50 mm TB, cat back exhaust (I think you found this already) 1.7 Roller Rockers, double roller timing chain, crank pulley to name a few...

you want a richer AFR... do the IAT relocate mod, want high end HP, mod your intake, want to advance your ignition timing? do the crank sensor mod...

there is all kinds of stuff that you can do to your motor to make it perform. but your gonna get your hands dirty doing it...

On the topic of chip compatibility, there were changes made to the electrical and diagnostic system between 94 and 98. Dodge went from Pre-ODBII to ODBII. And if chips are anything like reprogrammed PCMs, then it's not going to work with your truck.
