Default Unichip

Anyone Experience A Unichip With Their Jk? I Am Interested In Investing In One With The Flex For My Cai, Header, And Exhaust Setup.

So Why Would You Say "For The Money" Cause You Get Alot With The Unichip I Think. Does This Hypertech Have All The Features Of The Unichip With The Flex? Have You Experience With Hypertech Or Know Somebody Who Has? I Just Dont Want To Buy Something I Will Regret. You Know What I Mean. Want To Make The Right Discision.

great threads about the Hypertech. But, like the OP, I would like to know if anyone is running the Unichip. They claim pretty high gains with only their chip and a CAI.

I have the Unichip and put several miles on with it. Mine is the hard wired unit and I have the connection cables and software to recieve different programs via email. When I was normally aspirated it was an awsome chip, but when I put the Supercharger on, they (Hesco) never come up with a program for my setup that satisfied me. It wasn't horrible it just was not what I wanted and I am pursuing other solutions right now. I would highly recomend the Unichip for a stock Jeep or with CAI and exhaust. I will probably offer mine for sale here sometime and I have the Hesco custom program that worked really well saved and can load it on the chip. I don't know what all the Flex does so I can't comment on it.

That's an expensive chip, especially with flux. Just took a look at their site. Those that purchased the unichip, did you also buy the flux? Thanks.

So are you running the supercharger without the Unichip right now? How is the performance?
