Default Stage II Jet Chip

I need to know if it is worth the $250.00 to buy the stage II Jet chip. Anybody heard anything on this.

I had one in my 2004 Hemi QC and I returned it. All it did was cluttered my ECU with numerous error codes. I saw no benefit of noticable value. I would suggest waiting for the programmer from Hypertech due out in about 3 months or so.

Well, the stage II Jet chip arrived at my house on wednesday. I installed it and am very pleased with the results. My gas mileage at 55 mph went from 16mpg to 17.5 mpg. The most awsome thing that I gained was torque. I can feel the truck pull hard through all of the gears. There is no lag between shifting, it almost feels like there is a diesel under the hood. Can't beat a torque, horsepower, and gas mileage increase for $238.00. Thanks for all of your input but I suggest that everyone give it a try.

Sounds like the folks at Jet Chip have found DF. Never heard of a jetchip doing anything for a Dodge.

Any chance you can back your claim with dyno numbers. I would be impressed if this worked. Thus far, the Jet chip has not impressed anyone. Thanks.

Hmmm...one of the few...lol....give it 500 to 1000 miles...you will start seeing those increases...decrease!!! LOL

Your PCM will "re-learn" the stock settings and compinsate (sp) to get the truck running "right" again.

I must say...almost every one that I have heard from that bought the chip (against the advice of people who had been there) start complaining within a month!!

Enjoy you chip...and keep us posted!!

Oh, another member here can show you a dyno sheet and time slips showing he lost power a 1/4 mile times WITH the chip!!
