Well this is a little frustrating. CarGuyOhio you said it is a completely different animal, how so? Why are these out there if they are garbage? and why is our section (Ram's) sponsored by these guys if they are worthless? Not to hate on our sponsors, i guess i'm just taking my anger for Fiat out on these guys, but come on, don't put a product out there that gets my hopes up, and then charge a couple hundred for.

Can someone enlighten me on this?

A JET chip plugs in piggy-back to your PCM, and doesn't allow any changes, that hand held tuners allow. Example... CMR tunes, able to enable factory optionsm tire size, etc... Don't waste your money on chips, any of them!

I don't know if they are any better now, but the first "chip" I tried in my '04 way back in '05 was a Jet and not only did I notice no difference in power but it cost me 1.5 mpg. Went to an SC in '06 and never looked back...
