Thanks Wes,

I have the JDM chip on the way. I ordered it last week and should be here Tuesday or Wednesday. For a while I was going to go with the PSP chip because of your posts and dyno numbers. I am glad that you said that the JDM chip is better then the PSP.

Thanks

John

I heard the JL chip is different from the JDM chip. Are you sure they are the same??

JL and Spiro both now market the JDM chips. The original JL chip was NOT a JDM chip, but rather JL's own program.

The JL street program is NOT the same as the JDM street program(according to JDM). They are very similar though. Maybe JL will reply.

WA 2 FST,I have the latest JL program too, and while I was waiting I had several conversations with Johnny and Spiro. It seems they are different,but are very close. I doubt anyone could tell the difference. I know I'm completely satisfied as my truck is now trouble free and very fun to drive.

hey guys: just to clear things up! the JDM chip and the JL chip are different programs! there is some similar characteristics. however they are 2 very different programs. jim prefers some different things with his program and i prefer some things different things with mine. this however does not imply one program is superior than the other. you lightning owners will have to decide which program you personaly like! no matter which program you go with. i believe you won't be disapointed. IMHO they are by far the best programs available! hope this clears things up. now lets go eat them vetts up! JL

How about telling us what the differences are? Or how will we know the one that we would like best?
