Can't believe you missed all the hype on here about the Superchips. Most of us are just waiting for David at Northridge to make the announcement that he now has them for sale.....

I've been completely happy with my Hypertech Max Energy. I wasn't too fond of the price, but that's all the bad I can say.

There's probably a little performance bump there, but the most noticeable improvement is the throttle response. The throttle delay due to the drive-by-wire on my Jeep stock was annoying me to no end. I tested my Hypertech on my stock Jeep before I had the lift done and that delay was virtually gone.

I haven't had any problems, but I asked them some technical questions and they were answered well, so the support is there. And they are present here and respond.

AK4Dave...

I've only been a member of this forum since last month and this is my first JK. My other Jeep is a 2004 Liberty and the only thing I did to it was put bigger tires on it. Never really looked into Modding til I got the JK. I guess that's why I missed the hype. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions in the future about different mods that I'm sure that have been asked before a million times. I try to do all the research I can before buying a mod, but there's nothing like talking to a couple dozen people who have done the mods and see what their results were. I trust that more than a brief discription on a website. Thanks for all the help guys
