HI, DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE USING A TUNING BOX ON A LIBERTY CRD AND WHAT FUEL CONSUMPTION RESULTS DID YOU GET, CHEERS |

Check into Green Diesel Engineering. Not a tuner per say, but you can buy different tunes from them. Either send them your ECM or and they can sell you a flash tool so you can switch between the tunes they offer. I have the ECO tune, and am happy with it. I think it improved my fuel mileage by 5-10%. Real advantage was that it reduces/eliminates the EGR input. |

You will probably get more responses if you post this on the CRD portion of the forum (viewforum.php?f=5) That said I strongly suspect the response you get will largely be don't waste your money or stress your engine by installing a cheater chip. I know a few folks have used chips but which ones I don't know. I think most members, certainly including me, are of the opinion that if you want a CRD tune you need to go with a comprehensive ECU reprogramming like GDE'S (http://www.greendieselengineering.com/g ... ethod=home) which is what I have and think highly of. I know Inmotion (http://www.inmotionusa.com/jeepgraphs.html) also provides an ECU program that some members use but I don't know anything about that product. X2 on bugnout's comment |

X3 I wouldn't get a cheater chip that just falsifies the readings to the ECU. A total ECU programming is the way to go. |

Agreed, my Italian cheater chip lasted about three weeks and 150 miles before blowing up on the open road....fortunately not damaging anything else in the process.
