Hey guys, I see these advertised on Allpar.com, website GFChips.com, just wondering if anyone has used one of these on a Challenger R/T. Thinking of trying one on mine. Any input appreciated. Thanks!

I have never used them, but I think you would be better off with a Predator. you can do more with a Predator than this plug and play chip. I like how they list it for the 2011-12 Challengers, wonder if they have even tested it on one since code can't be cracked. Just my .02 cents on it.

Sorry you cannot reprogram your PCM from the IAT Sensor

i know for a fact. the picture shows a ROM looking chip device with numerous pins. But the instructions say its just a two wire connection to the IAT. All the device is is a .50 cent resistor that changes the IAT reading to make the computer think the intake charge is cooler than it really is so it adds some fuel and timing. that is NOT the way to tune a car. and theres no way in hell it will add 60 horsepower or increase mileage

Yeah, these are not new guys.

They dont work, and there is no way to add 60 rwhp to any gas vehicle without some hardware changes, period ;)

Not even with an Predator (that actually does program the PCM) could you obtain 60 HP increase.

I have a 2010 challenger i put the gforce chip on mine an so far ive seen fuel milage change from 19 to 23 per gal performance is a little better but ive only had it on for about 300 miles, it took it a little time to start to work let you know more later.

Purchased my 2011 last week and on the first tank it gave me 27.5, the next tank was 21... my guess is driving style gave you the 4 mpg increase not the chip

I would NEVER buy a chip for my car. I keep pondering thoughts on the Diablo. I just do not have anyone that will tune my car for me.
