Default Which programmer is best?

I have a 2010 Wrangler unlimited that I've put a 4.5 in lift on and just regeared to 5:13s, front and rear. I'm running 33's but am putting 35's on next week. Everyone has a different suggestion or preference when it comes to the programmer thats best for my vehicle and NONE of them drive a jeep..lol Soooo, tell me guys(and gals), WHICH one is best for my ride??? Thx!!

i've run a hypertech and superchips and have been happy with both. the superchips will allow you to do quite a bit more with your jeep but, it's also a bit more expensive.

I love my superchips. I'm running the 93 tune and it's like a whole new jeep compared to stock. It will allow you to actully get some real power out of these slug motors. Plus can can adjust the tpms to turn off and recalibrate your new tire size!

I'm considering a Diablo Trinity, but the SC Vivid has caught my eye too. I just don't like a device that tries to do everything. It started with cameras in cell phones. Now my Canon 5D MkII shoots video, yippee skippy.

JP magazine did a really nice review of all the tuners for Jeep JK's in Nov. 2009. That is what helped me pic a tuner. It was based on an actual tech review and they pointed out some unique properties of all of them. A nice writeup.

Can't say which one is best. I have a Superchips FlashPaq and like it. I've used a number if tunes that helped and thought Tow Tune was the best but just recently filled up with 93 Octane and used the 93 Tune and REALLY like it. 93 Tune is now my favorite.

I just got the superchips. I only see a way to turn the tpms down to a lower tire pressure but not turn it off. So can you really turn it off or just turn it down. I think the lowest allowed was 15psi.
