Anybody confused by how even in their youtube video there in a 2011 JK yet... It doesn't support it?!?!

Also, does it backup the "Factory" firmware before reflashing like the superchips? I rather keep my warranty for as long as I can

Otherwise dam does it look nice! Much better than the superchips.

Yep. I downloaded the manual and it says that the first upload takes longer because it downloads and saves the factory settings first.

For what I understood BD comes with a transmission package that SC sells as an option. Is the SC's package better?

I am leaning towards BD because of the real time monitoring, which is a nice feature.

Thoughts?
Superchips offers a full transmission option that handles part throttle adjustable shift points for automatic transmissions. Not sure what the Bully Dog offers, but likely WOT shift point adjustment. The Superchips transmission has seemingly not been adopted by many on the JK platform (I actually have a manual transmission) but on other chrysler platforms it has had great reviews (I run it on my Dodge Ram).

BTW, I really like the full time display of the Bully Dog and would love to have that option with my Flashpaq. The price point on the Bully Dog is great as well, and I believe these things go beyond just doing a straight up performance test. Would be nice if the Flashpaq had a full time mounting option and touch screen, which I guess the only path to is their new Vivid product.

Pretty sure the Bullydog doesn't have a touch screen. But all in all I'm stoked about getting it. Just waiting for UPS.
