I contacted SuperChips yesterday to see when we could get a real tuner and here is what they had to say:

Probably no time soon, but you never know. We have our hands full right now with the full size vehicles.

Well you do have 2 other Choices:

1. Jet stage 1 and Stage 2 chips

2. ECM flash from B&G Chrysler

I have the Jet 2 chip and it made a VERY noticeable difference.

Some people feel all piggyback chips are a waste, but all the people I know who have the Jet Chip can feel the difference.

Your choice.

If one is thinking about adding a performance exhaust system, headers, CAI and chip (Jet) - what would the logical/best order of installation be? And any suggestions on the best brands?

It depends if you are doing this in stages based on ease of intallation or money.

If you are going for bang for the buck, this order:

1. CAI
2. Exhaust (muffler, Cat back or custom-- what ever you like or can afford)
3. Jet chip or ECM program
4. Headers

Headers are not yet out for the 4.0L, so they would likely be last on your list no matter what.

In terms of ease of install:

1. Jet Chip -- 5-10 min job
2. CAI- 1 hour
3. Exhaust- varies but most time consuming and may need a pro to do some work
4. Headers- Passenger-- easy, Driver side--- a real pain

If the headers are available by the time of your install, I strongly suggest you do them along with the exhaust as it will be easier while the OEM exhaust is allready lose or removed.

It's not that I feel piggbacks are waste it's just that I'd rather spend a little more money and have something that I can set up to my preferences and not some canned tune that someone else thought I would like.
It would appear that I may have no choice.
