Can some one give me some feed back on this chip. Is it worth it? |

What are they selling the $25 worth of parts all put together for with their little bit of engineering (wiring in the few electronic components, mostly resistors) the only value added? The add on boxes mostly increase the boost and fuel rail pressure for more power with out remaping the timing and other parameters. Let us know and we can better answer your question. A better investment will be to get a 2 1/2" Magniflow and open up the 2 1/8" restriction on the Cat to Muffler flange. You will notice an immediate response from the engine after the modification. The stock muffler was designed for the 3.7L stock gas engine, not the CRD. Do your research and determine which ECM tune you want. Some like KoolAid and some like Lite Beer, I prefer Guinness Extra Stout. |

I've never used one, but if you look elsewhere on the forum you will see that most folks have moved from chips to the GDE ECU tune. It's generally agreed that a full tune is better than having a chip "fool" your engine... And a GDE Tune looks like it costs the same as this chip, fyi. |

I don't need mine anymore so I will offer it up for sale. I will be getting the GDE tune soon, so I will no longer be needing the Striker 1 module. Although it has the option of 10 boost levels, I never utilized this option. The only option I used was the adjustment for the fuel rail pressure. I was able to lower the pressure so that the engine would quiet down and wouldn't race while stopped. I paid a few hundred and change for it back in novemebr, I will sell it for $125.00 including shipping, PM me if anyone is interested. If you get the tune you wont need this device unless you need the extra boost levels for towing. |
