Hi all, a buddy of mine got a new 04 superduty and his old 97F150 he is getting rid of. He gave me his JET Power Control Module to plug into my truck to see if I liked it, if I like it I can have it for cheap.

My question is, would this be a decent chip to try on my truck and buy for cheap from him? ($25) he wants.

Thanks!

 

I had one on my 2000 F150. You need to make sure that the chip he has will work for your truck. They make them for different years, they aren't unversal.

If it is the correct chip, then yes it's worth the $25. I saw a slight increase in HP and better MPG (about 2 miles). They are really easy to install, just plug and play into the ECU underneath the passenger kick panel.

Also, I bought mine for $50 off of a member on here, used it for 4 months and then sold it on Ebay for no reserve for $75 . So, even if you don't like it, chances are you could make a small profit if you resold it. They aren't worth the $300 or so they try to sell them for new (IMHO), I wouldn't even pay $100 for it, but you will be able to tell a difference from stock. Again, just make sure the model # on it is compatible with your engine and year of your truck. If it is, pick it up / $25 is a steal.

 

Hi jk007 Yeah we have the same year, same engine, same truck. I just got it and plugged it into the ECU. cleaned the white gummy stuff off of the ECU connectors before I plugged it on. I also, before I plugged it on , disconnected my battery to reset the computer, just for good measure. Started it up, let it run and took it for a spin. It does have alot more "umph" to it, but nothing terribly mindblowing. I wouldn't pay $100 for it either!
