Does anyone have a Jet chip installed on a 4.7L? If so, is it any good?

Okay, I put in the correct tire size, and now the speedo is correct.

But I have to say, using the programmer is a little cumbersome, and the manual is just about worthless.

I know what the rev and speed limiter are, but what is 1-2 and 2-3 WOT RPM?

Also, the current setting for all of these are "SC"...is that short for Superchip?

The manual says I can adjust shift points and pressure...how is this done?

And lastly, what is a "schedule"?

Thanks much!

Chris, Go back and read post 2140 https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2112188-post2140.html it has a lot of useful information.

As for WOT 1-2 and 2-3: this is the RPM you want to upshift when you mash the throttle. There's also additional information in the FAQ (link also found in 2140).

Thanks Papa, but Im only more confused.

If I want to stiffen up my shifts, how do I do it?

I presume I have to download something, but the SC website (like the manual) is of little help.

I still dont understand what a "schedule" is, and what its application/use is.

Thanks,

-Chris

Torque management reduction is the way to firm up and quicken your shifts. You can modify the TM without doing a schedule, and just take the percentages down to where you feel you have the best shift. Most guys go around 8-10%, at least for wide open throttle. Youll find the TM menu under advanced options.

And as a side note, the manual is somewhat "generic" because some vehicals have different options. Currently there is no line pressure adjustment for the dodge trucks.

None of the shift schedules are on SC's web site they're hosted on Jeremy's host - link in post 2140. Here's an 05 schedule to look over - see attached.

With the FAQ and this shift schedule it should make it a little easier to understand.

I saw those, and they looked like WOT settings, which I will never be at.
