In the future when i regear and go with bigger tires, i only have 32" tires right now, do i need to change the gear ratio? or does that only matter on automatics?

Yes when you regear you'll want to change it in the tuner. Auto or Manual.

I would change it to stock before taking it into the dealership.

Wow! Tow tune sure does make for a nice growl under the hood.

Yeah, I love that.

Waiting for the tank to empty out so I can go back to it. This time with the right Octane.

Default just a little more info...
I put this originally in Bruised's sponsor's thread, but still didn't get a clear answer. I've read over this thread here, but can't seem to clearly get some numbers on what this tuner might do for my all stock JK.

Did I miss something? Any help? I really think I want to buy this item- but I just need a little more clear info.

thanks

My last highway trip was in 96degree weather uphill with two large adults and a kid with daycamp gear and the a/c on all the way-the dash computer said 20.1mpg!!! [the hand calc was more like 18.9].

So I know I didn't buy a hybrid and don't expect 70mpg, but what gains can I expect?

btw- I'm all stock- no drop in k&n, no CAI, nor updated exhaust.

thanks
