Anyone have some ACTUAL input on the superchips flashpaq? Specifically, the eco tune?

php Pegasus???? Remember that I am the guy that does not even have a smartphone!!! How about a few more how to details, for instance what does php stand for? I did find the Pegasus website but that is as far as I got, lol.

PHP is good but MPT does the best tuning job on these trucks. Grab yourself an x3 with 3 MPT custom tunes , it's about 370$. Well worth it

That's what my plan was, to buy new. Don't have to worry about getting one that may be half way to fried by someones wiring mishap. Love the clean look of the dash pod. Makes it nice to leave up there and have as a multi-gauge unit.

Haha ok, for all the newbs out there.....

PHP stands for power hungry performance. Pegasus is there software you will have to go to their website to download. The instructions are pretty clear on the software. Just download it, and go from there. Their support is pretty good at PHP, they are open more than they used to be.

Website:
http://store.gopowerhungry.com

I would suggest viewing from a computer. Their website isn't very mobile friendly. They just launched a new one recently.

I must be technologically challenged, I could not even find Pegasus on their site. I did find custom tunes but they were not free. What am I doing wrong??
