Default GF Performance Chip FOR JK

Does anyone have the "GF Performance Chip" installed or had experience with with it? Can anyone give me feedback on it? Does it really work? Also, I have Superchips with advanced transmission tuning installed on my 2008 JK X, can the GF Performance Chip work together with Superchips or I have to uninstall Superchips tuning before installing the GF chip?

If I'm not mistaken, it's just a resistor that tricks the computer to run leaner. It's a waste of money from what I can see. Something like Superchips or Hypertech actual remaps the fuel and ignition curves to achieve the gains. I looked at this for a different truck of mine a long time ago.

Stick with the Superchips. The chip is a waste of money, and the SC tunes already run lean so it wouldn't be good to add anything to it

That chip is a piece of crap. It was directly attributed to the destruction of my F350 7.3l diesel motor. The only good thing is that destruction brought me back to Jeep, so I guess there was a silver lining so to speak.

Yeah let me also add the old adage "you get what you pay for", why do you think that chip is so cheap?
