Great product and price.

The Superchips Flashpaq F5 did exactly what it said it would, Better fuel mileage more power at gas pedal i think its great for the 2500 Gmc 6.0



by:

The superchips f5 Flash paq is horrible it did nothing for my truck but make it lose fuel milage even with economy tune i would not recommend this product to anyone



by:

Truck works better with it. It’s an incremental improvement but noticeable.



by:

Easy to follow instructions, had it installed in 5 minutes. Performance has improved noticable.



by:

Easy to use, works great. This in addition to cold air induction and cat back exhaust really woke my truck up.



by:

Thank you etrailer for your awesome customer service. etrailer will be my go to site for all my automobile needs.



by:

So far I have only used it on the 87 octane tune setting. Definitely an overall mild improvement in performance. Does not kick out of overdrive while in cruise control mode nearly as often. Picked up at least one possibly two miles per gallon.



by:

I ordered a Superchips Flashpaq for my 02 Dodge Ram 4.7. ETrailer was one of very few websites that was clear in its discription on wheather or not it would work on my truck. The customer service is great and the price was good.



by:

Wow! I love this tuner! I enjoy the ability to change the tune from performance to towing in a mater of minutes . I was happy to disable the DOD (cuts off 4 cylinders on light load) and to raise the speed limiter too! very happy!



by:

Not a noticeable gain in any of the modes. I would just buy a cold air intake instead and save your money on this basic tuner.



by:

Simple to use with easy menus and update process via your computer. Don't expect a dramatic power boost with gas engine. I have noticed much improved mid range throttle response, especially at higher elevations. My 2500 HD no longer has to downshift 2 gears to maintain or increase speed on 5 to 6% grades in winding turns in the 45 to 55 mph speed range. Wide open throttle passes at higher speeds seem to be a bit quicker. To soon to form any opinion on fuel mileage.



by:

The tunes that come with it are great! However the other functions aren't all that special. The code reader is basic at best. It wont pull any advanced codes, the $[XX] code reader from wal mart does the same thing. Also when I changed the tire size from the stock 27" to the new 33" it didn't load it properly and caused the brake and ABS warning lights to lose their minds and flash constantly. Overall its overpriced for what you get.



by:

First I have to say that ETRAILER has the absolute best customer service out there. When I ordered this over the phone, there was an error that doubled up everything (glitch in the system I believe). Anyway, before shipping, and charging me double for everything, they called me to confirm that was what I really wanted... good thing.

As far as the Superchips is concerned. It's great. Really unlocked my truck's power. So easy, a caveman could set it up. Tells you recommendations (i.e. in performance mode, don't tow, etc.). Also, for Mac users, the Flashpaq F5 is upgradeable on your computer. Just go to the Superchips website, download the "ignition" software and you're good to go. I spoke with Superchips and they acknowledged that's an error on their website. If you're going for fuel economy, go with the "Performance" mode. I've seen easily a 3MPG overall gain in that mode. It's also the one that increases the most torque and HP. Highly recommend this product if you want something simple that will unlock your Cummins while keeping it safe... and you really can't go wrong by ordering from ETRAILER. Seriously, I have ordered tons from them and they are awesome!



by:

I bought this after installing 4.56 ring and pinion gears in the front a rear axles in my 02 gmc sierra 1500. Due to differences in where wheel speed data is collected between the front and rear axles you'll get an abs warning light if you make any changes in drivetrain bearing. This unit has the ability to adjust the parameters for tire size and gear ratio in order for the ECU to perform the necessary calculations. The result is that the ECU can then realize that both front and rear wheel are in fact rotating at the same speed, which turns of the abs light. I also used a GPS speedometer and adjusted tire size so that the indicated speed matches perfectly a calibrated gps speed perfectly. Its actually more accurate now then it ever was. So I can confirm that this unit will correct both issues you may have. I havnt used any of the "canned" tunes so no comment on performance, towing or mpg gains. Just adjusted the parameters on the stock tune and been running it like that for a year with no issues



by:

I love this product. I can change my truck to have to pull the house down or set it up to Canon Ball Run lol



by:

Joshua was very helpful in getting me the correct Superchip after i ordered the wrong one and it came fast. I'm very please with the product and the service.



by:

Product performs as expected.

What's
important to me is the company I purchase from..

The follow up from the etrailer team is excellent!!!

  • Can The Superchips Flashpaq F5 Be Changed To A Different Vehicle
    Yes, you can change the Superchips Flashpaq F5 tuner to a different vehicle. For example, the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner - Ford - Gas/Diesel, part # SU1845, when programmed, is attached your vehicles VIN. In order to pair it to a different vehicle you have to return the current vehicle back to stock performance. Once that has been completed you can pair it with the new vehicle.

    The Superchips Flashpaq # SU1845 does have different fuel requirements for different tunes. Some of the tunes actually have the octane level in their names: 87 Performance requires 87 octane 91 Performance requires 91 octane 93 Performance requires 93 octane 87 Octane allows the use of 87 octane regardless of manufacturer's recommendation Heavy Load Tow and Towing tunes use 91 octane Mileage XS requires 87 octane

  • Programmer for Towing and Fuel Economy on a 2013 Ford F-150 3.5 Liter EcoBoost
    For your 2013 Ford F-150 with the 3.5 liter EcoBoost motor I recommend the Superchips Flashpaq # SU1845 for 49-state or # SU4845 for California approved. The Flashpaq has several tune presets for fuel economy, towing, and performance. When towing I recommend the towing tune and for everyday driving use the economy setting.

  • Will the Mileage XS Mode on the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Mode Increase Power As Well
    The Mileage XS mode of the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner part # SU1845 is mainly used for increased fuel economy but it will also increase both horsepower and torque as well. I confirmed this with my contact at Superchips. However, for the best of both worlds you should try out the Performance mode. With that being said, this will vary from vehicle to vehicle and from driver to driver so you would be best to try each out to see which one works best for you. I have used a similar...

It will allow you to return your vehicle to factory specs for emissions inspections or trips to the dealership.

  • Superchips Performance Tuner For A 2003 Ford Explorer V8 4.6L
    Yes, the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner # SU1845 will work for your 2003 Ford Explorer V8 4.6L. The SU1060 that you mentioned is an older model that came with a separate color display that can be mounted on the dash, and while this would be compatible with your vehicle, this model is no longer available. For this reason the # SU1845 will be your best bet.

    I have a solution for a great tuner for you. Unfortunately, the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Pro Custom Performance Tuner - Gas/Diesel # SU1545 only allows you to upload the tunes you create and upload. There are no presets on this tuner to give you horsepower gains on your 1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty 4x4 with a 7.3L Diesel Engine. However, with that being said, if you want preset tunes that will add horsepower and gas mileage gains, I recommend the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner -...

  • Picking Between Oiled and Dry Filter Cold Air Intakes for 2004 Ford F-150 5.4 liter
    When picking between an oiled or dry filter cold air intake system it really comes down to the roads you'll be travelling on. If you know you'll be on gravel or dirt roads you really need an oiled kit. If you don't think you'll ever be on either of those types of road a dry filter is more than adequate and since they are much easier and less messy to clean they are the way to go. The oiled kit part # AR400-140-2 is a fit for your 2004 Ford F-150 with a 5.4 liter engine and for a dry filter...

  • Programmer to Help with Towing for a 2009 Ford F-150 with 5.4 Liter Motor
    To answer your last question first when towing you would still use the tow/haul button when using a programmer. What I recommend for you and your 2009 Ford F-150 with the 5.4 liter motor is the Flashpaq # SU1845. It has preprogrammed tunes for fuel economy, towing, daily driving, and performance. It is one of the easiest programmers to use and one of the most economically priced. That makes it tough to beat!

    Vehicle owners' factory warranties are protected by Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. The Act states that if something breaks on your vehicle and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless whatever modifications you have added to your vehicle actually caused the problem in question.

  • Does Using Tow Modes in Superchips Flashpaq Tuner Increase the Towing Capacity of a Vehicle
    there isn't really a specific capacity or anything when in the various tow modes of SuperChips Flashpaq tuner # SU1845. You are still limited to whatever the truck can tow according to its owners manual. You would also have to follow the programmer's instructions for the correct octane of fuel to use in a given mode. The tow modes make sure that you have the power in order to tow easier but they cannot increase the capacity of the truck.

  • Difference Between SuperChips Programmers # SU1845 and # SU4845
    The big difference between the two SuperChips programmers you mentioned of # SU1845 and # SU4845 is that the # SU4845 has been approved for use in the state of California. Aside from that it's the exact same programmer so you'd need to pick which one to go with based on where you live and you'll be set!
