Yes.........I have a 2 dr auto and it really helped with the shifting points. And if you are still not happy for $50 I think, they can give you another program to customize the shifting.

Also there is a "speed limiter" that you can shut off with the Flashpaq. I did that and now I can go exactly 435.6 mph before the engine blows up........lol.

have my SC......I had one question:

Now that my JK just turned 10,000 miles, it finally starting to drive fairly nice. I was wondering when the SC copies my stock tune, does it copy it as the JK drives now, or does it not keep any of the parameters it has learned, and just the basic stock tuned is copied?

One other question:
I just installed the 87 Performance Quick Tune in my vehicle. I would like to change it to the 87 Performance Advanced Tune. Do I need to return my vehicle back to stock, before I install the advanced tune? Or can I just choose to install the advanced tune?

Just got my Flashpaq today. Downloaded updates, programmed the JK, and holy hell fuzzy what a difference! I'm only running the 87 octane tune too. I adjusted tire size, turned off TPMS (although this update took me 7 download attempts to get to show up), and everything exceeds my expectations. Even the engine sound is more intense, I wasn't expecting the aggressive sound at all. Nice surprise.

I must say that I'm pretty impressed with the power gains on my 10' Rubi. I just did the 87 performance quick tune.....just to try it...usually I do the advanced setting, but didn't have the time to play with it yesterday.....
very noticeable difference in power and low end torque.

also pleased with the low end torque gain off the line. Auto shifts are better and its nice to have my speedo back to specs.

mpg is no better

Yes, definitely install the software on your computer an run the updates before you install on the JK. Also, be sure to update twice to get the TPMS control.
