Hi,
I seem to remember awhile back, when everyone was getting JET chips for
their R/T's, that alot of people noticed lowered shift points with the JET
installed.
As far as performance goes, I've got two recommendations.
# 1 - Get rid of that JET chip and pick up a MOPAR Computer. I tried the JET
a few months ago and it caused all sorts of problems. I'm sending my
computer off to CA next week to get a more aggressive program than the MOPAR
flashed into mine.
# 2 - You need to get cooler air into the engine. The open element is great
when its fairly cool outside, but in warmer weather it really sucks. I've
got one on my truck now and my IAT sensor is reading 150 degrees! Try either
the Kenne Bell or K&N Cold Air kits. I'm going to try another K&N kit on my
truck next week while my computer is gone and see if I can get it to fit
right.
Hope this helps,
Doug Myers
