Mike,

I'm very interested in this fix as I've got the RIPP Mods 180* thermostat and am ready to install it in my 2014 Charger 3.6L Pentastar.

Any ETA and where will you post info when it's ready?

Also, will the original OE tune need to be reinstalled in order to update the Trinity?

Thanks,
Scott

The charger stuff was working fine, this is specific to some Jeep applications.

I'm guessing these fan adjustment numbers will work for a 2012 JKU right? I have the 180* stat in route today...
Do i need the update posted above or will the "mega crom" 1R12 work for me??
