Notes

  • Flex Fuel Vehicles: fueling with E85 is not recommended in conjunction with your Superchips unit. Burning E85 reduces efficiency and power compared to using gas, which reduces the power you'll get from your Superchips.
  • Increases in fuel mileage depend on driving style

I purchaced the cortex superchips programmer because I had a 2.73 rear gear and was changing it to a 3.42..I started to buy a Hypertech programmer but, the Hypertech will not, I repeat will not except the new gear ratio...Not only does the Cortex except the gear change it has changed my car to a whole new car..The performance option on the Cortex is great..With the gear change and the reprogramming has really changed my car... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE SUPERCHIPS CORTEX PROGRAMMER. In my opinion the only way to get better out of a stock engine is to do a dyno tune...Very Happy..

I used the express performance tune. It installs quickly and I do notice a harded shift into 2nd gear and more power. It hasn't helped me with fuel economy. I will try the 87 octane tune when I go on a long trip

I put this tuner in my '09 Frontier and it really has made a difference. Once I installed the updates and figured out how to tune it, I ran the 91 perf tune and the gains are impressive. Like most others, I have actually gotten better gas mileage from the 91 perf rather than the xs fuel saver tune. Great product!

Woah!!!! I installed this on my Trailblazer SS. The installation is simple and the directions are very clear and walk you through the few steps that the programmer doesn't do for you (registering programmer, updating, etc). The performance tune brings the engine to life, but the shift pressure was just too much and there rear end couldn't keep up. The 1-2 shift usually resulted in some or a lot of sideways action. The programmer makes it easy to lower the pressure. I also ran the 87 octane tune to see how well it worked. The engine runs fine on 87 octane with this tune, but it definately doesn't have the power of even the stock tune, but it is there if you need to save some money or maybe have a long road trip.

CORTEX is a HP device your vehicle will thank you for every day. You will thank yourself, once you own one. Not only can you self tune your vehicle, you can custom tune and much more. Did I mention you can read codes and catch those lying mechanics stealing your money; CORTEX will tell you exactly what the code means. Buy one, try one and you will never regret this purchase!!!
