Are these PCM's 100% compatible with the 2011? Meaning ALL the accessories work.

Can they be flashed with other tunes besides Diablo? IE; SuperChips

I've wrestled with these PCM swaps before on my 01 Dakota R/T. They rarely worked. JTEC is such a POS.

 

Talk to calijk he installed a hemi in his jeep and his son installed a super charger in his

 

I'm kind of curious too if the Super Chips programmer can be used with the Ripp SC as I have one. Would there be limitations when compared to the Diablo?

Yes its a near 100% perfect environmental, the only loss would be cruise control, the only reason you lose CC is because the button in the steering wheel is digital vs the older analog. Other than that its perfect.

No the Superchips cannot be used because it does not carry the tune from PC to vehicle. The Diablo does just about everything the Super C's does.

I would stuff air in an Jeep's engine LONG before I would stuff an engine in a Jeep.

 

I had a supercharger on my 2011 which turned out to be a bad experience. It really did not provide the power where you need it. The Hemi should be going in soon. Just waiting on a few more parts. I wish I would have went straight to the Hemi rather than messing around with the 3.8. Just my opinion, I know that is not an option for most.

 

I have to disagree. Alot of vette guys are jeep guys. I came from vettes, camaros, and t/a's. Coming from ls1tech alot of guys have jeeps. Alot of jeep guys put ls1's in there jeeps and I can say probably more then hemis.

 

We can't remember the last time we saw a Jeep lined up next to John Force at Englishtown. We don't see the vast majority of our customers using their Jeeps for stop light racing. It was not what we had in mind when we designed our system.

I'm very curious, can you elaborate on the bad experience?? I hate to ask this as I dont want to cause bad press for any manufactor but what kind of supercharger was it? Thanks in advance!!

Unfortunately I received a unit that had the wiring harness wired improperly and when I tried to start the motor the engine was flooded. The wiring was 180 out as far as the schematics was concerned. Rewired the harness to the proper orientation. Had to removed the dual batteries and spark plugs to blow out the gasoline from the cylinders. Reinstalled the harness and the motor did not start. Would not hit at all so sent the harness, module and fuel injectors back. Ended up having to do blow out the cylinders three times since I did not realize that the cooler and air duct was also full of gasoline. Finally got the harness, module and injectors back and installed. Still had a hard time starting even after leaving the cylinders open for a day.

The system was finally running and did well at first with power starting at 2500 rpm and really kicking in at 2700 rpm. Still had some down shifting of the transmission on steeper hills but manageable. Slowly the power lessened over the next 2500 miles till the transmission was down shifting as before to get up most of the hills and gas mileage had gone down to 11.5 mpg. Checked the boost valve to see if was operating properly with vacuum and found no issues. After talking with RIPP several times and really not getting anywhere close to figuring out what was wrong decided to remove the unit. Put everything back to stock and the gas mileage is back up to 13.5 to 14 mpg depending on my lead foot.

I really do not have a lot of time to be messing with something that is unreliable so I ordered the 5.7 hemi with a 545RFE transmission. Just waiting on a few more parts and it will be going in. If the torque and HP curve that is provided by the manufacture is correct then the Hemi should be providing plenty of low end torque and HP to run 35's with no issues.
This was a condensed version with not really all the issues, Just felt it would get to long if I went over everything.
