Superchips Flashpaq for JK, Initial Impressions
Yes and sorry for the delay in getting back to you with those details.
I spoke with management and our Jeep engineers about this feature and after going through the pros and cons of the idea they concluded that even though 4-HI locker features are feasible durability testing says it is not safe enough of an option that we would feel comfortable enough to offer. Aside from decision from our team a consult to our legal team also provided similar results. There is too much of an opportunity for issues with liability to go forward with this kind of feature.
Sorry the news isn’t as you had hoped.

It seems their only priority is to keep stringing people along in order to sell more superchips. Now my vehicle as well is affected by severe pinging. I've since returned to stock, waiting for a remedy, which I am NOT holding my breath for. I don't mean to knock this company, but I am very upset that this ping issue has been around for a while, and it only seems to be getting worse and affecting more and more people. Who cares about lockers when vehicles are potentially running in a damaging state of tune due to their product.

Correct! Only one vehicle at a time can be programmed with the Flashpaq. The majority of what you are paying for is the software and intellectual properties that make up the program, not the physical hardware. It's really not any different than software license agreements with computer applications, just that there is a piece of hardware to make it work.
