Default Jet stage 1 impressions

I just got the chip for my truck from autoanything today and the install went pretty well. The only problems I encountered were due to the fact that I didn't fully press the chip in, so when I tried to start my truck it wouldn't turn over. I called jet and talked to a guy who said it takes a lot of pressure to get the oring to snap, and he's dead on b/c when I first put it in the thing wobbled and gave me little confidence in it as a product that cost more than $200. For the chip to seat you have to press really hard, so anyone who gets one remember to press hard until you hear it snap in.

After I got it all back together everything was running good and no check engine light came on. I took it out for a drive and felt a nice little butt dyno increase. Hopefully my intake (now I'm getting a spectre), power wire, and jet stream scoop will also get here this week too. As for the jet chip so far I'm happy with it and I will update as I drive it more this week.

Yeah I think the spectre one looks really good and if you look up the mopar intake for the 3rd gen rams it is nearly identical to the spectre.

I don't know how much more it helps, but they recommend it with vehicles with more mods like intake and exhaust already done. Since the price is so close, like 15 bucks I think, the stage 2 might be a better investment if you plan on doing several performance mods.

Lowgoat autoanything.com is the site I ordered the jet chip from and I ended up getting it for like $215 after a coupon for $15 off. For the specs on the jet chips go to their site, here is a link for the dyno results for dodge and the 06 at the bottom is the chip I got http://www.jetchip.com/dyno.asp?folder=Dodge

I got the power wire and jet stream scoop today, but no intake. I got an email from Nick at airram saying it is shipping from the manufacturer, so hopefully I will have it on there soon.
