You want a tuner, not merely a 'chip'. You want to actually reprogram the PCM, not just have one sensor lying to it. Lots of folks offer tuners for them, they all have their advantages/disadvantages.

He's right. ^^

Chips are a waste of money. You need an actual tuner. Diablo Sport Intune is good and cheap, Trinity is more expensive but gives you fancy gauges and things like 0-60.

Dont expect much power when it comes to modding the 3.6L. You have to spend thousands to squeeze out 50hp+.

Yeah, but, it starts out north of 300 already. Almost as much as the 8.0 in my truck....... (though I would imagine the torque number is significantly lower......)

Just enjoy the car and wait for a Hemi before you start doing mods. Actually some custom mufflers sound pretty cool on a 3.6L. I heard one the other day that sounded like really nice Euro-trash and loved it. I wish I could tell you which one. I'm sure some Youtubers have some ideas.

Right, cause they have it pretty much maxed out from the factory. Love the 3.6 in our Journey just the way it is.

Default Diablo Sports Tuner

I would go with the Diablo Sports Tuner. Depending on how much you want to spend on a tuner Diablo makes four models for your car the InTune i3 Programmer, InTune i3 Platinum Programmer, Trinity T2 EX Programmer and the Trinity T2 Ex Platinum Programmer. Prices range from $380 to $600 so it all depeneds on what you are trying to accomplish with you tune.
