Do a quick 'title only' search. There are a ton of threads on this product, with fairly favorable reviews. You won't feel instant hemi power with any of the tunes, but will pick up a bit of seat of the pants performance, as well as all of the nifty programming functions. Is it worth the price to you? No clue. But it is worth the price to a very large portion of the jk owners that have them.

I am happy with mine. If I had it to do all over again, I would buy the Superchips sooner.

There's a very large thread running around here somewhere. You'll find exactly what was stated above.

A couple of necessities..... ablilty to reprogram for larger tires. Means your Speedo will read correctly. Adjust TPMS, including to 0 so if you've removed your sensors you don't have an annoying light.

Hit the For Sale section, you'll see tons of them trading hands. Does that mean they're bad? No. But you may pick a deal up on one if you are curious.

Like was mentioned, since the automatic is computer controlled it has a larger impact on them. My wife really likes the effect on her DD. The most noticable thing to her is it no longer downshifts to maintain 65mph + on the 5 or 6 over passes she regularly goes over to & from work. MPG is +1~ average.
I like it.

I like mine for my Auto....find the big thread, you'll get all the info you need; however, the consensus will be that for an Auto it's a must have.

My neighbor just got one and I asked him if it was worth the money. He said the difference is night and day. He can defineatley tell a difference in power and shift points. I'd get one.
