My experience with Dave and B&G was very positive. He worked with me on every aspect of my PCM and got me exactly what I wanted, and it works great on my truck.

The jet chip does nothing. Take it off, toss it in the trash where it belongs.

So I don't see the need to do this mod in a lightly modded engine. Maybe a hi pressure pump to take up the slack in your hi mileage bearings...just change your oil regularly, use a quality brand and a good filter.
Don't spend money where you don't need to...
...same with a jet chip. Those things rate right up there with throttle body spacers in usefulness. For every guy that claims 50 hp there are 20 guys who claim they're crap.
I agree on the oil pump...Lot's of people use HV pumps whom don't need them, and should not be using them with a stock oil pan. Mopar makes a spring you can drop in the stock pump for like 12 bucks to add some psi.

My initial B&G flash was 450.00. I had B&G re-flash it 3 times at 250.00 a pop, he never did get it right. Plus you have to mail the PCM back and forth...**** that.

Hemifever nailed it the first time, and fine tuned it via email tunes a bit there after, no charge.

B&G is old school...It was our only option...But there's better stuff out there now.

I agree that SCT is better since it is more flexible. Just saying that I really like my B&G (old school or not), that's all.

Dave Kasper is a dick, and quite frankly, he could less about you or your truck.

Get an SCT from Hemifever. Cheaper & better.

EDIT: with the 21's and the few mods you have, you might need to pull fuel.
I would love a sct but mine is a 94 so obd1 and only a flash for me

Yup..

Try and find a Mopar PCM, the 5.9 PCM will run a 5.2 just fine, there's a few of us doing it.
