Mine is still running great. In fact, the engine feels lame when I turn it off. That's the downside I guess. I can't go back :) I would also like even more power. Though, if you want the power of an EcoBoost, or the N55, you should not go with this little 4 cylinder. RaceChip is advertising...

Well, it feels very smooth from 0 to max speed, so I guess they took the E-Torque into account. Furthermore, the dyno chart shows the effect of the overall system and it looks good. Not sure what they did, but I can't complain.

Maybe you can dyno one for the community? You can send the product back within 30 days, so it would not cost you anything.

It connects to the boost pressure sensor and manifold pressure sensor and not the gas pedal sensor such as your throttle controller. RaceChip has a throttle controller, too. It's called XLR.

RaceChip let someone do a review / marketing video and published it on their channel: It's definitely a marketing video, but I can confirm most of the points. Before you criticize it, I suggest you make your own (independent!) review about the tune.

You are right, also the screenshots on the website still show the old app. I guess they did not update the website yet.

I finally received a dyno chart from RaceChip. It's the 4th gear and they were using 91 octane. The power increase looks very smooth and consistent across the whole rpm range. The performance increase at lower rpms is impressive. Just draw a vertical line below 3000 rpm and the torque gain is huge.

The GTS+App. Your links are leading to the old app. The new RaceChip app: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/racechip/id1450806314 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.racechip.plus In the past, some people seemed to have connection issues. I did not have any problems connecting the...

I apologize for my long absence. I am far too busy these days, but I wanted to properly test this before I give a recommendation. In the meantime, I drove more than 700 miles including some light off-roading last weekend. I must say I am more than impressed. As they told me, it took about 100...

I agree that it's smarter to remove the device before you go to the dealer. But the other assumptions are not true. Just because, you could do brutish or dangerous things, does not mean that RaceChip does this! It's pretty easy to check whether your negative assumptions are true. Just watch the...

If you are still interested in upgrades for the 2.0L Turbo, here is a link to the ongoing discussion about the RaceChip tune: https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/racechip-piggyback-tuner-for-2-0-jl.25544/ So far, I love it

Thanks for the review, very interesting. I've heard some positive things about it.

That's interesting (I assume 2L, not 4L :). Did you ask what sells better? From my experience, people are still sceptical about the 2L engine. Very similar to the first EcoBoost engines Ford introduced. Nobody expected them to be that successful. I think we'll see the same within FCA.

Totally agree. Jeeps guys will be Jeep guys and difficult to trade to the Bronco. I assume more Jeep owners will switch to the Gladiator (not off-roader but the mall crawlers). The Bronco will only hurt FCA, if it comes for a better bargain.

Update: The piggyback arrived last Wednesday, but I did not have time to install it until Sunday. Installation was pretty easy, their installation video explains everything. Just one thing: Do not install this when your engine is still hot. It's pretty tight there and easy to get burnt. I did...

Does anybody know the share of the 2.0T vs. the 3.6L?

No experiences on the Wrangler yet, I just ordered. They do only turbocharged and supercharged engines. Nothing else.

I would be interested in an answer, too. Maybe these are the reason why Jeep increased the recommended octane to 91?

Awesome! Let us know if they need more R&D vehicles. I would be interested.

I thought about it, but didn't do it. I was just too impatient :D So I paid the California price...
