I have had my CRD since new, and though I have always babied it quite a bit, every now and again I like to take advantage of that power. Today for example a pickup tried to cut ipast a long line at a red light by pulling up next to me at the light knowing full well that his lane was going to end about 50 feet after the intersection. I was pleasantly surprised at my accidental wheel squeal and little cloud of black smoke I left in his grill.
I have both GDE engine and transmission tunes and you won't regret getting them yourself. It's almost impossible to leave clouds of black smoke because the engine runs so efficiently, but you'll notice the smoother operation and cleaner oil. Best mod I've made on this Jeep hands down. I'm at 150k and I think I got the tunes around 60k. They work.
