Installed it, used it for over a year, and sold it.

I did not re-install it on the new Dream Cruiser.

That's how satisfied I was.

No difference? No HP gains or better takeoff?

From www.ptdiy.net

277. I just got back from the dealer. I was going to get the Jet Chip installed and found out it has been recalled. Tech support said it was recalled and wont work on the 2002 cruiser. - Dewayne

There were no changes to the sensors involved with the Jet Chip. I'm curious about this recall. Many owners, including me, had problems with the check engine light. I found a simple cure; maybe they did not figure it out. The signal from the MAP sensor to the PCM takes 500ms to read the voltage at startup. The Jet Module can't turn on and settle in that time. The fix is simply to turn the key to run and wait one second before turning the key to the start position. That simple technique cured the CEL. Follow up - a number of 2002 owners have written and indicated that they experienced installation issues with the Jet Chip and returned the product.



There used to be a Jet install guide at ptdiy, but it's been taken off. This should give you a hint.

There was an increase at mid-throttle. How often did I use only mid throttle? About 1time, and that was only to test the module. There is no input from the Jet module at wide open throttle. That's where you want more power, isn't it?

Caveat Emptor
