Maverick2757 Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 Has anyone put a stage 3 tuning chip in their DJ? How about a Performance air intake? How did it perform after the upgrades. I Have a 19 GT Looking for More Power. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redtomatoman123 Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 I haven't done it. I'd love to see a report back from you regarding the upgrades and resultant performance. A dyno before and after the upgrades would be excellent to discern performance gains. Let us know how it goes... The DJ has a CAI stock, btw. Peace.

I actually cut the collar off the stock air box!! A dremel tool works great. Some sanding and wa la. It has the original fitting for the IAT sensor AND get this....a bell housing for perfect air redirection from the sides. Another reason is that it deletes the free air hose, which you don't really want. You could get residual oil sucking back into your throttle body. Just put a crankcase filter on your crank and it actually adds about 10% to 20% of power. But the thing is, that with such a newer car, you'll have to hard reset the pcm and tcm back to factory settings and go through a couple of true drive cycles to make your car recognize the change. Make sure when your doing your drive cycle that you don't have your lights on, a/c running or radio on. I did it to my '19 2.4l journey blacktop and it runs amazing. It took me about a month after I bought it to realize it was sluggish and gas mileage blew. I'm talking 285 miles per tank. I've had it for 3 months now. So I changed my exhaust vvt solenoid, my crankshaft position sensor, and ambient air temp sensor. Now it get 365-420 mpg, my throttle response is greatly improved, and I don't unessesarily stay in gears so long when I'm not on it. I've got a carbon fiber heat shield on its way as we speak. I'm working on building my air cleaner tube cause you may have to. Idk if yours has intake systems for it cause they have no intake systems for my car. Don't know about the tuner things. I've seen them, but I don't think they do anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaveManJedi Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 Also, I'm about to get rid of the resonator and change my catalytic converter from an C.A.R.B. emissions to federal emissions one. And of course, grab a muffler while I'm at it. I'll update progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
