Nope and it wouldn't matter anyway. There are no open programmers to program for it anyway.

I thought most cams didn't require programming, but damn

The 3.6 already has 4 cams with variable timing. That's part of the reason it has more horsepower than the 3.8L engine.
Sounds like "performance" to me.

It's actually more cause I'm an exhaust junkie and love the sound of a mean engine.. v6 doesn't really give any of that

The sound of the 3.6 is literally the ONLY think I dislike about my Jeep. I have always had big v8s trucks and v8 performance cars. This little v6 sounds terrible... Im not a huge fan of the sound of any of the aftermarket exhausts I have seen videos of either, if anything most of them sound worse.

Follow me on Instagram and watch my exhaust video, I like the way I have it setup.. just wish the engine would sound good (not just the exhaust) and it sounded better at higher RPMS

Actually HP Tuners says they can tune the 05-16 Jeep wranglers.
