Sup guys , after having the JEEP at a local speed shop for 1 1/2 months without it being touched (was suppose to get whipple installed) i pulled it out of the shop and just want to get it tuned to get more out of it . When i was at the speed shop the guy told me that he'd be using a u7137 (RAM) becuase of the motor and trans used in the wrangler swap and i bought the tuner and got a code that cal id is not supported . What should i do ? It's the AEV kit w/grandcherokee pcm supposely , lx 6.1 eng , ram 1500 trans ......... Can i bring this to florida SO U GUYS CAN FIGURE SMT OUT ?

Yeah, that calid does not come up as supported by ANY of the 5.7 truck PCMs that we have support for (including Ram, Durango, Cherokee, etc)

Any updates on this, I got a call today about a possible tune and hand held programmer sale for a AEV 6.1 JK installation. The customer does not know the cal ID, I'm going to call AEV tomorrow, but I'm hoping that the template for this cal is the same as something you already have support for.

These 6.1 swapped JKs have been getting some sort of back-door DCX flash that allows the SRT8 engine to run with the Ram truck Trans.
We do not support this calibration, as it is not like any other DCX cal ever.
We have investigated the possibility of adding support for it, but there is no ETA for possible addition.
If it can be done, we do have a local Jeep with this whole set up in it at our disposal for testing.

Gentelmen, we at B&G have been doing the jk 6.1L conversion package for years, it requires a new pcm the jk original 3.8L pcm will not work. And there are a few extra calibration changes to be made due to the fact that the JK uses a tipin module for starter engagment. also we use the 545RFE trans section for the automatic transmission conversion and all 6.1L engine/obd2/ETC/diagnostic needed changes along with performance upgrades.
