1994 dodge ram 1500 5.2l

So im thinking of getting a chip for my truck, and i found out that you cant have a programmer since its the obd-1 system.

Has anyone bought a jet power control module? and how did it work? good performance gains? fuel mileage? etc..

Thanks,

Unfortunately, this chip works by adjusting pcm parameters, and the pcm soon relearns the correct partners and renders the chip ineffective.

Rm-indy did a track test of it on his site. He lost time in the quarter mile. Mopar Performance PCM or B&G Chrysler flash are your best bets.

 

Huh, well then i guess that is out of the question haha, and yea i dont wanna buy a whole new pcm or send mine out, so ill probably just keep it stock :\

 

Has anyone opened up the older pcm, to see just what is in there? The GM OBDI computers had a PROM chip in there, that was 'replaceable'.... and the aftermarket came up with a ZIF (zero insertion force) socket to make changing them incredibly easy. A few hundred dollars worth of equipment (including the laptop....), and you could burn your own chips, and edit your own tunes. Spending a couple hundred once, for an infinite number of tunes, sounds a lot better than a couple hundred bucks, each and every time you want it tuned.......

 

yea well i'm not that advanced and idk how id ever start making my own tunes, im having enough problems gettin the damn turn signals to work right now let alone tuning my truck haha
