Superchips Flashpaq for JK, Initial Impressions
Neither of those items will change things dramatically enough to effect the tunes. Headers can as they cause better cylinder evacuation and a throttle body will let more air in at lower throttle position percentages without having the tables changed to accommodate the larger bore.
Now to go on a long trip to burn off that 87 in my tank and run 91 tune
Don't know if this is the right place. But I need some superchips help for my JK. I have an 09' JKUR auto. I just bought a superchips 3875, and have not been able to get it synced to my jeep. Problems first started since I am a Mac user, so I loaded an old version of XP in a virutal machine, and finally got the superchips to update (is it just me or is their software clunky). So I tried it on the Jeep, first try I kept getting a "cannot detect ignition on" error. Searched the web, and did not find to much info. So after 30 minutes went back out to the jeep. I was then able to progress a little further. Tried a tuning option and received a general error G-3F and to call superchips. Looks like it was still not sensing the Jeep because there was no VIN lock yet, and no information on my jeep. So I tried some more updating on the computer, it said everything was up to date and try again later. After a hour I went back and tried again, same error. So I started playing with some other function (Data logging, vehicle info, etc..) those all seemed to work, and it even loaded my VIN, so now I think it is VIN locked. I tried a tune again, and still got the same error G-3F. It looks like it is talking to the Jeep because I get flashing lights (Check engine, ABS, ESP, and another) but it always ends up with error message.
Any thoughts, I really don't want to return this after I just bought it.

You'll need to call Superchips. Be prepared to give them your Vin number so they can get you straightened out. There is likely a parameter that is different from the vehicle profile that Superchips has and they'll need to make an adjustment of the tuned file. Not something that usually happens after the vehicles have been around for a while, but it also could have had a PCM update along the way from the dealer.
I am awaiting to be approved on their forum.
Thanks,
I'll try to find a dedicated windows machine, I'm sure I still have a few friends left that haven't switched.
