UPDATE: Back to Tow Tune on 87 Octane .. Mileage not as good on 87 tune especially if I have to pull the trailer...

UPDATE: For those interested... Lovin' the superchips. Still on 91 Octane and Tow Tune Throttle response has gotten even better, as mentioned before it seems to actually learn your driving style and enhances it.. I am happy enough with my 08 that I cancelled my 2012 order before they could process it....

Wow, cancelled a 2012! I can't wait til they crack the 2011 codes. This seems like the answer to my prays without major engine mods.

FINAL UPDATE: Well I still have the Tow Tune installed, however because of cold weather the last 4 tanks I have just run reg 87 octane instead of Premium 91 octane.. So yesterday I decided to fill up with premium as I will be towing my trailer around. WOW what a freaking difference. Now I know why I love this tuner and Premium gas. This 3.8 on 35's and still stock 3.73 gears will out run and beat my old 98 Ram off the line and all the way through. And yes I have driven a 2012 with the 3.6 a few times. I am impressed with the new 2012 auto 5spd gearing but I am certainly glad I didn't trade in my 08..

I am a new Jeep owner and I am looking to add some zip to my ride. I have a 2010 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara. I find it sluggish on take off and it does not have the pep to just step out and pass someone on the highway.

Is this superchip a hard install? How does the tuning work? I am not a mechanic but I am a very handy guy.

Not hard to instal. The Superchips will give you better throttle response and by removing the speedo limiter will give you better passing power. I better tunes the engine so you can run higher octane fuel and get the benefit of better power and mileage.

Thanks Jeff,

I assume there is no issue that it is a 6 speed manual transmission?

No issue at all. The better tunes, throttle response adjustment, Speedo limiter and so on work just as well on the standard trans models..
