    This thing needs a "crawl" setting for off-roading. I can't say as I see $230 dollars worth of function here. I mean who bought a Jeep to race it?

    • @shockerracing
      @shockerracing  5 лет назад +1

      John Turner its really not about racing it, I just did that for fun. It really wakes up the throttle response in the U settings but I was thinking the E Settings would be great for crawling.

    • @johnturner9924
      @johnturner9924 5 лет назад +1

      @@shockerracing Thanks for responding, maybe a follow up video will offer the answer to the "crawl" settings :) My JLU Rubicons throttle is very touchy, hard to leave a stop without snapping your passengers head backward. I have the 3.6 with an AT and run 37" tires, no regearing or or any other mods. Does this smooth out the throttle on take off?

    • @shockerracing
      @shockerracing  5 лет назад +1

      John Turner I know what you are talking about with the aggressive acceleration in the Rubicon. I attribute that to the 4.10 gears. I’m new to the Jeep world so I don’t have much experience with off-roading yet, but I believe the E settings will allow you to make the throttle less sensitive therefore less “snappy” when you are crawling. I had mentioned a lot of that in my original footage but unfortunately cut it to get the video length down a bit.

    • @shockerracing
      @shockerracing  5 лет назад

      steve timleck I’ll admit I was on the fence about it at first but now that I’ve been driving around with it in the AC mode I’m hooked. I’ve since installed one in my Duramax diesel and plan to put one in my Cayman.

  • @serpentsbydesign
    @serpentsbydesign 5 лет назад

    so bought it and installed it do you notice that the gears don't seem to shift as quickly in automatic like they used to it seems to go higher in the RPM's before it changes. Have you seen this?

    • @shockerracing
      @shockerracing  5 лет назад

      Frank Ducharme no I haven’t noticed this at all on any of my vehicles. Does it still do that when you switch it to the factory mode? This shouldn’t have anything to do with the shifts as it is strictly affecting throttle sensitivity.

      diego marcelino I don’t believe it leaves any trace so if you removed it they most likely wouldn’t know. But you may want to check with iDrive or your dealer to confirm.
