First dodge I've owned and was worried at how much gas I would eat so I went ahead and bought the superchip and I'm glad I did. Not only did it point out the problems with the truck I was buying but it got me back home 290 miles on half a tank. Best investment I made especially for this 2003 I got. Two thumbs up.

This product came highly recommended by a coworker whose opinion I trust very much. I programmed my truck for economy, it was very easy. I have a Chevy Duramax diesel with Allison transmission. I haven't had a chance to try programming for towing performance yet, until Spring/Summer get here. I have high hopes that my truck will perform better towing my goose neck horse trailer while camping this summer.

Some of the features were not available for this particular vehicle with the 4.7 engine, but there is an increase in power and a little throatier exhaust. Overall, the drivability is much better as a result.

I drive my truck 25k per year and was interested in increasing my mpg. I did an online chat with an advisor and he said I would see a 3-6 mpg increase if purchased. I was very skeptical on the high end of the estimate but I was willing to give it a shot. After 2 tanks of gas I'm averaging 20+mpg when I drive mostly on the freeway and 18+mpg combined. That is an increase of 3 mpg for the freeway and 2 mpg for combined. Not quite the 3-6, but I am very happy!

Hi, Im guessing you have a 5.3L. If so, you will see + 18 horsepower & + 17 ft-lbs of torque at max setting. Mileage will only increase though if you dial down the tuner and keep you foot off of the gas. More power = more fuel and air used to generate it.

US Code - Title 15, Chapter 50, Sections 2301-2312) Legally, a vehicle manufacturer cannot void the warranty on a vehicle due to an aftermarket part unless they can prove that the aftermarket part caused or contributed to the failure in the vehicle. If your vehicle manufacturer fails to honor emission/warranty claims, contact EPA at (202) 260-2080 or www.epa.gov.

The results will be 18 horsepower and 24 ft-lbs of torque. The perfomance gains will be the same as the same changes are being made to the engine programming. The overall output however will be slightly different between a Jeep with an automatic transmission and one with a manual due to gear ratios and other factors.

Answered by Michael K. — Jun 29, 2012 11:30 AM
The tunes in the Superchips are designed for specific driving styles and conditions. You can tune for maximum economy, maximum performance, optimized towing, etc. The stock tune, on the other hand, is designed for everyday driving, by everyday drivers under a variety of driving situations. It’s kind of a compromise between ultimate performance and ultimate economy. And remember, with the programmer, you can always set it back to stock.

What exactly is a “tune?”
Answered by Elizabeth C. — Jun 28, 2012 10:51 AM
A tune is a program stored in your vehicle’s onboard computer or Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The PCM controls everything happening in your engine, like fuel delivery, spark, timing, transmission, etc. The tune simply tells the computer what to do, and therefore tells your engine how to react under the given driving situation.

You can use the programmer on only one vehicle at a time as the VIN number is recorded in the programmer. You can use the programmer for a second vehicle if you remove the tune from the vehicle to be sold first and program an identical vehicle. Remember, these programmers are tuned to your exact application.

I dont think you will find much luck finding a chip for your 2001 as flash programmers give you the performance gains of chips without the installation hassle. A flash programmer replaces your factory tune by accessing the OBD2 port under the dashboard. Many programmers also have additional benefits such as reading and clearing trouble codes and allowing setting adjustability. We do offer a Jet Performance Programmer that would be perfect for you truck.

Hello, I own a 2008 Jeep Commander with the 5.7 Hemi MDS engine. I would like to know how the gas flashpaq for my Jeep will work with the tow/haul feature in the transmission?

The Flashpaq tuner allows you to fine tune the shift points of your transmission and will retain any factory transmission safety features. Expect the tow/haul feature to work the same, just with tuneable shift points.

Hello, Im curious about your Gas Flashpaq for my 2011 F150 due to the fact that you can adjust for larger tire size...aside from accurate speedometer reading what else does that feature effect? Im mainly concerned with transmission behavior due to larger tires, even though I'm only going from a 32 inch to a 33 inch tire I want the truck to behave like it does in stock form. Any response would be greatly appreciated Thanks, Parker
Answered by Nathan S. — May 04, 2012 10:15 AM
The tire size adjustment feature wont affect the transmission behavior as the transmission is still relying on the same signals to determine the correct gear to choose. Some of these programmers such as the Hypertech Max Energy will change the shift pattern electronically to some degree, but increasing the overall tire size changes your final drive ratio mechanically which cannot be altered by programming. The only real alternative is to increase engine power to compensate for the slight mechanical disadvantage of going to a 33" tire.

Superchips recommends against using E-85 with their programmers due to the combustion differences of E-85 and gasoline.

If you purchase the Superchips Cortex Programmer, you may add a second vehicle to the unit by paying a small upgrade price through Superchips directly.

Answered by Nathan S. — Apr 20, 2012 1:50 PM 2011 Chevy Silverado
You can expect around 14 horsepower and 22 ft-lbs of torque on a well maintained engine. You mileage will fluctuate from normal to a slight decrease depending on your driving style.

Can you increase the shift point from 5,000 to 6,0000 Can you disable that running on 4 cylender to 8 cylender mode. I would like to disable the top speed limitor. Quicker throttle responce. More MPG and do you have to keep this thing pluged up all the time. Can you return to the factory settings if i had to. This truck is a 2011 GMC sierrs 1500 with a 5.3
Answered by Anonymous — Mar 22, 2012 7:13 PM 2011 GMC Sierra
No it does not disable the cylinder change and you do not have to keep it plugged in, but yes to everything else. I also have a 2011 Sierra 1500 5.3 4x4. Used it only on performance mode so far, disabled speed limiter and put a higher rev to it but I'm very happy with it.

I have a g-force chip that goes into the air intake can I still use this tuner or should I just take the g-force chip off?
Answered by Nathan S. — Apr 20, 2012 1:56 PM 2011 Chevy Silverado
Unfortunately, the g-force chip is not compatible with the Superchips Flashpaq programmer as they are tested and tuned on a vehicle with a stock tune still in place. I would recommend either installing just the Superchips programmer, or if you like your g-chip you may want to consider a cat-back exhaust system to improve power and mpg.

WI'll this programmer make my truck faster? And if so will it use more gas?
Answered by Nathan S. — Apr 20, 2012 2:07 PM 2011 Chevy Silverado
You will see an increase in power and torque with the performance settings. Unfortunately, you will also see a decrease in mileage as it usually takes more fuel to make more power. The good news is that you can increase you mpg by using the economy setting and driving responsibly.

I just bought a 98 5.2L Dalota that was build in Oct 97. The website says these will program a 98 model year, but I have heard these dont work on the early 98s . Does anyone have any experience that can say for sure if this will or won't program an early 98?

I get 9.5 miles to the gallon with my Chevy Silverado with an 8.1 ltr. motor. Can anyone tell me if this chip will help improve my millage or does anyone know of something that will??? Thanks
Answered by Doug S. — Feb 28, 2012 11:04 AM 2004 Ford F-150
Yes, it should help you a fair bit. Just remember, with a 496 cubic inch big block, you probably wont get much more than 14mpg. But thats a lot over 9! I highly recommend the Superchips flashpaq or cortex tuner.

I've heard that this won't work for speedometer correction for my year jeep. Can anyone confirm. Note that I also have a standard 6 speed tranny.
Answered by Doug S. — Feb 28, 2012 11:06 AM 2004 Ford F-150
I cant say for sure, but from what I know about manual transmissions, you may have to replace the speedometer sensor. Its much like the old school speedometer gear, just electric. See if you can locate it on the tailshaft of your trans, usually on the left side.

Is there a risk of tranny damage to a Ram 3500 dually that does not have a HD tranny?
Answered by Chris R. — Jan 10, 2012 7:28 AM 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
Most all performance chips can affect your tranny, after having about 7 dodge 2500-3500 diesels the VERY best I have found has been the economy chip from Quadzilla. For the low cost it really cannot be differentiated from the higher end models that I tried, just the economy mode is a HUGE difference... I have consistently gone to 24 MPG after installing on all trucks, either 4x4 or not.
