i can get my hands on them for just over 300 bucks. We tuned my friends 07 supercrew added roush rear exit exhaust and cold air kit. The truck chirps gears and burns some nasty tire. Im impressed with it for a hand held jobber. Although you cant go wrong with a chip you can burn multiple times. They allow you to do more with fuel and timing.

Yeah i Know you need some funky new thing that is ECM specific in these. I was merely stating if it was possible a flip chip is the way to go. I'm big into Mustangs and have built a few over the last 2 years. I'll talk with my tuner and see if SCT has anything new for our trucks

SCT has the X-cal 2 that will work with his truck and the Livewire. I just would not use the livewire yet, they had some problems with them. I am VERY familiar with the chip. We burn custom tunes into them all the time. The SCT tuner can hold 3 different tunes and the tuner can change them anytime.

I got a refund for the full amount. Be sure your buddy knows he cant modify the manifold or intake system, with the superchips. There is a class action suit starting over the whole thing. Superchip is false leading buyers.

Hell yea... Turn off the rev limiters. More HP better drivability. Turn off the rear o2s for less problems... Better fuel mileage.. SCT Tuners FTW.

Heck no, Not on a gasoline truck. Mabe a fuel burning truck or Preformance car. You cant do anything but the chip on a f150. A CAI... as in K&N Does just as well and you can still add other upgrades with it.
The SuperChips Flash Paq Sucks!!!!!!
