I really can't think of anything to recommend. It is pretty straight forward.

I have had the superchips and the diablo. In my opinion the diablo is much more user friendly when it comes to the install. You never hear people complaining of the situation many superchips users have when it comes to the G-3F error. The diablo will just keep saying turn ignition on until you turn it far enough. It does not make you start all over again just because you forgot to turn the key all the way to ON.

The diablo really comes into play once you start bolting on perforamce. Ripp will supply you the tunes you need for thier stuff if you decide to go that route.

Awesome, thanks! I haven't performance tuned yet but I've been playing around with the diagnostic monitoring and I'm extremely impressed already. This thing rocks!

Post I have one as well...

bought it to recalibrate my speedo when I got rid of my stock 225s

I'd already done an AirAid CAI and Dynomax cat back system. Didn't notice much of an improvement with those things

I can tell a difference with the 87 performance tune though

I'm going to post up more tomorrow when I do the performance tune, but I already have an AEM CAI and Dynomax cat back exhaust. I'm hoping I notice much more with the tune and adjusted tire size.

Ok reporting back after tuning and test driving the 87 performance tune. Wow! I am blown away on how much it woke the jeep up. My speedo is 100% accurate now as well. I can't want to tune with the crawl tune and see what it does off road. If its anything like the performance tune.... OH MAN!!!!

Had anyone changed the Ac off cooling fan temp? I read on google that the fan (Ac off) should not be changed below 195 degrees without a lower temp thermostat.

Is this true? Anyone have any other suggestions? I just installed a tranny cooler and I'm running the 87 performance tune and want to adjust my fan to cool the jeep a little better.

Wow , alot knowledgable guys here in tuners!!' I just picked up a flashpaq in the mail yesterday, I have a AFe CAI already installed, I ran the 87 tune and do feel a gods power increase, My question is should I put the stock air box back on ? Will I see better gains with it? Or stay with the AFE? Thanks again I'm new to this tuner stuff and It sound like the diablo is the way to go, but i got my flashpaq for $264 shipped so I couldn't pass it up, any input would be great
