    Basically, what the GM guys only wish was cheap and easy for them, is for JTEC.

    After seeing what your doing here I'm sure you'll figure it out!

    Learned a hard lesson about JTECs, both chipped ones are now dead. They are the LEAST ESD tolerant hardware I've ever dealt with. I suspect both units would still be alive if I had made sure the case was grounded when powered, but I have some doubts. Chipping is a great way to recover one that's had a bad flash, I am not sure if it is a viable method of tuning on a budget.

    It's a bit pricey, but the concept of a dual Ostrich or RR adapter board is 100% viable.

    Proof of concept.

    Stock 5.9 Magnum with Mopar Performance intake and Holley TB stamped "prototype" on it. Was one of Ronnie Sox's cars, converted to EFI in '98 using a '96 donor.










    Now, pull the boring old 5.9 and build a Magnum-based 408 with EQ heads and a mild cam.





    Alright, I'm ready to do a turbo Cherokee now.

    A JTEC. I've done "this" for over a decade, true familiarity with a platform requires tuning 50, and you aren't a master until closer to 500. I have a good grasp of 96 and 97, a good feel for the rest of JTEC, with two bricked JTEC+ on my bench.

    I may tune enough to cover my investement in gear, but at this point it's all my stubbornness and trying to rationalize why I need another fuel hog Cherokee, that keeps me going.

    because they are awesome. I really need to update jtec.info with this interesting progress.

    What would one need to acquire to do work on this? As in equipment and skills? I have some experience with the earlier LM/SMEC/SBEC systems, though not anywhere near as much as shelgame has.

    Been following this JTEC hacking through several forums for a while now (34blazer gets around lol), I have a '72 D100 I'm swapping a 4.7 5-spd into along with a factory harness and computer, that will eventually be pretty heavily modded and probably boosted, so I will need control of the parameters. It's either hack the Jtec or go MS. I also just picked up a '01 Durango with a 4.7 that I'd like to tweak, although just a regular plain tuner would probably do me fine on it.

    I did some looking into the SCT stuff and I think I'll probably just go that route. Costs a bit but it will work.
