I was referring to the temps in the differentials and the transfer case!

Cool! So it does everything the BD does and some more? I'll look into it! Thanks! ;-)

I've been running the Superchips flashpaqs on my 2010 2dr automatic for about 2 weeks now. I've owned the JK for about 2 years running it mostly "city" miles on 87 octane with 33x12.50-15 aggressive MT's. My winter gas mileage has only been running about 13.3 MPG's. Wow I can't believe the difference the flashqaqs has made using just the mileage xs tune with the tire size adjustment. My transmission is noticeably smoother and my MPG has jumped to 16.4MPG's. Real world numbers not going by the dash board calculator. Very pleased!! Thanks!!

so i have had the superchip flashpaq for about a year now, and i have messed around with the tire settings and air pressure and what not. but i do not ever feel a difference with the settings i put on the chip. my gas mileage def has not changed. im not bashing the chip just need to be pointed in the right direction on how to get the most gains out of this chip, thanks for any help. i have it on 87 octane rite now, with my tires set at 34.5 and the speedometer is pretty accurate.

Been running it on my 2010 JKU auto with 37s and 3.73s for a week now and greatly impressed. Has transformed the Jeep from an incredibly sluggish tank into a quite acceptable ride. Low end torque greatly improved. Smoother ride at 60mph+, ability to actually pass on the highway, etc. Running 93 tune with towing. Still getting about 14mpg which is fine. Very satisfied so far and can't believe I waited this long!

Holy cow! I just did the Superchips tire resize and 87 octane tune and I can't believe how much of a difference it makes. Shifts better, accelerates better, just plain feels better. It also fixed my estimated mileage calculator, it went from 13.3 miles per gallon to 17.4!

I haven't even looked at the other stuff, so that'll be fun to really get into it. I might try the 91 octane tune. The guy that sold it to me said he ran that and was awesome.

Question. If you have 2 Jeeps, is it possible to use the same Superchips programmer on both? Probably a dumb question ha

Only one at a time, but you can switch vehicles anytime!
