Any more impressions of the magnuson unit as a daily driver?

Sure, its better now than before. We got a new tune recently, and the only problem that seems to remain in a "surging" at crusing speed. it feels like the driver is touching the gas and letting go, over and over, but he's not.

Im assuming it should be ironed out soon. but other than that, its a beast.

Hi All. I'm new to JeepLab but have been following along for a while now. I just finished installing the Magnuson S/C on my 2013 JKU. I'm working out the "kinks" now and I'm wondering how often you get updated tune files from Magnuson? My original tune file was missing ETC tables (thank Diablosport for noticing!). Mag sent me a new tune file and all seems OK. I notice some things like slight drop-out of throttle response at certain accelerator positions, a really "tall" fourth gear during highway on-ramp acceleration. It would be great to get any updates to tune files.

Thanks,

BTW - the Magnuson supercharger is has been a pleasure on my daily driver. I added an AFE cold air intake.

do you experience the surging trottle at crusing highway speed?

I do experience some irregularity. It's not terrible. I too would hope it will get worked out in future tunes or perhaps through some tweaking to the bypass mechanism. I can't tell why it's happening. I don't feel like the throttle is surging as much as I feel like unwanted boost may be kicking in or current boost may be cutting out.

Have many tunes have they put out for the manual?

Hmmmmmm. Its really odd, since the truck is basically at rest cruising. Im sure mag is on it tho. Its the only real blip we deal with.
