just to give an update on the testing. the pedal settings work as described! i actually prefer the moderate setting. the stock is stock, and the SC is the one thats notchy feeling. overall i think the issue is resolved and SC should release the tune!!

I love it.....I think the moderate setting gives it a more "natural" feel if that makes sense. Its easy to smoothly modulate the throttle at slow speeds, but you still get the instant kick in the pants when you put your foot into it. Its almost effortless. The stock setting was OK, but I hated having to slam my foot all the way to the floor to get the acceleration I wanted. By the time I realized I didn't have the pedal down far enough, it was too late and I had already lost momentum. Then I would have to downshift to get the acceleration I wanted. I hate rowing through gears for simple highway manuvers.
I am leaving mine on the 87 tune with the pedal set to moderate. I think it really improved the overall driveability. This is what the Jeep should have felt like from the factory. Actually, I still curse Chrysler for deciding on this engine and 3.21 gear combination, but having the flashpack set like this made it much more enjoyable to drive.

FWIW guys, I was just on the Superchips forum and theres a post there from Ron...
Firmware Revision 1.21.01 has the pedal response feature. This will allow the customer to select a Pedal Map of their choosing. It's under Advanced Tune->Options->Pedal Response.
Have the customers update and they will receive the new firmware with this feature in it.
Looks like the lurchiness fix is available for download. Now let's see if they can get the pinging issue many seem to be having solved.

I read a post you made somewhere else that you were still having issues with the pinging using 89 octane with the 87 tune? My rig is only gonna be happier when I re-gear in a couple of weeks, the superchips is a nice product but contrary to what some may think its no fix for bigger tires.
