Cool

[QUOTE=AK4Dave;2204730]One thing to think about for us auto owners......the Bullydog costs a little more than the Flashpaq, but the bully dog allows you to adjust the tranny shifting. As far as I know you have to buy this separately for $50 from SC.

If it does everything the Flaspaq does and more, it seems it would be worth the extra bucks. Just the fact that it has that damn cool real time monitor seems to be well worth it to me.

I guess it's time for Northridge to start carrying it....HEAR THAT

I thought Superchips gave up on the JK long ago, the support team certainly did. If I didn't own a Superchips Flashpaq already I would look at the new players Bullydog, Diablo etc. The Superchips dynasty / monopoly is over. If I could get some money out of the one I own I would change in a heart beat.

I have an X model and the sway bar disconnect works great. I have had some problems with the locker programmering. I can get the Locker feature to work but have a hard time getting it to disconnect.

Wait, so you can't adjust the speedo for new gears but you can do all that other stuff?? That's pretty lame.

You need the Rubicon model for e-locker operation and electronic sway bar disconnect. I assume you have installed the MOPAR swaybar disconnect system, but don't have elockers installed.

A programmer is going to buy you more power than an exhaust or intake.

air intake only gives you little power compared to a programmer. also the bully dog has real time monitoring and many other features.

just bought mine yesterday so i will post about it when it arrives

Anyone who formerly ran a superchips running the Bullydog? Just wondering if it would be worth the swap, I am happy with the superchips but if there was more performance out of the bullydog I might go for it, real time monitoring would be nice but I already have a scanguage II hooked up.
