I had a JET all it did was make my check engine light come on so I failed emissions. Sent it back 3 times and the third they refunded my money.

Yeah, I had a JEt chip in my 2000 Wrangler and it did the same thing. More interested in the programmers and what they can really do for a vehicle. Specifically a Cherokee.

Yeah, I'm currently saving for the Superchips® Flashpaq Programmer, hoping for some positive results. I've not heard a good thing about the chips, unless you're putting into a car. I asked about this once on here, and I got a single response about a man who's buddy bought one and couldn't figure it out, and basically gave up on it. One man's incompetency won't deter me, but if I start to hear of all sorts of negatives, I may back out as well.
I'm all ears as usual though for any suggestions and information.

AutoAnything.com has a nice selection of programmers. The Hypertech Max Energy Programmer looks good. Got some good reviews on the site for cherokees. Are those reviews real?

Well, I guess I'll have to reply and let everyone knows how it went once I purchase mine hopefully next month. I'm amazed as well no one has tried these! Makes me think I'll be buying the first one manufactured, lol.
