Never had the SC, but I am not at all dissappointed with the power gains from the BD. Its not a sportscar, but now I don't feel the need to immediately reagear after my lift. I also saw an increase from less than 14 mpg to right at 16 mpg. And it seems as though the longer I've had it the better my mileage has gotten. I'm not sure if this is due to the driving coach or the cpu learning better shift points. I'm very happy with it, but I'm sure I would be happy with the SC as well. I would think they are both worth the money.

Default called SC

I did call SC and they told me for what i was looking for the 87tune was probably the best probably bc i'm too cheap to run 93octane. I haven't called since the re-gear though, and to be honest i have just been a bit turned off bc of my experience. This doesn't mean SC is not any good it probably has a lot to do with my lack of knowledge and i'm just staying on the better side of caution.
Now i don't know a lot about engines and this whole jeep thing is very new to me but after talking to a few mechanics they told me the noise i was hearing was pinging. I was told that engines can handle a certain amount of pinging before detonation but i didn't want to take the chance.
Keep in mind that i would get this when i had a load on the jeep and was going up a hill (pavement), i believe it would happen in second gear...

A question to whomever may be able to help...aside from calibrating my speedo are there any advantages/reason to flash for my gears and tires?

Like any other computer controlled equipment out there, I'm sure the tuner program developers have come up with algorithms to get more power than what the stock tune would do.

The Superchips Flashpaq totally changed the parameters of the auto tranny and made it more "driveable" daily.

Which one of these tuners are best for my set up seeing how I'm installing 35x12.50x15s with 4.10 gears until I do my gear swap?? Which one will give me the best results and make driving tolerable?
