Jet chips are not VIN locked. You just need to make sure the Jeep it was on has been returned to stock and you will be good to go. Not 100% sure but I think the Jet chip will work with the Procal.

I bought a used jet stage one. worked fine. just disconnect the battery before install. Also, I recommend running Premium if you want to notice any difference. I've got a CAI/TBS with the chip and saw a small diff. Switched to premium and saw another small bump up. I think the chip likes premium. I'll be installing the MBRP off road exhaust with Granatelli plug wires and NGK Iridium IX plugs. I'm hoping that with those finally changes the result will be a more noticable difference in mpg and power.
