I think it's been pretty nice to have the majority of posts on a subject in one thread as opposed to scattered all about and a new topic for the same subject started every day as they are in regards to re-gearing. There are easily 3x as many posts on that subject and more than 25x the amount of threads started over the same span.

If you want to find something out about the Superchips Flashpaq you can probably find it out in this thread. If you want to find out something about re-gearing you may need to look through a dozen or more threads or as most do start a new one.

A thousand responses nor the lack of getting there matters little as long as people are sharing information and getting their questions answered.

I agree with that. I couldn't imagine reading through the whole thread now. Glad I caught it early and have been able to keep up with it.

After having the ECU flashed and updated at the dealer. I installed the superchip everything went fine until I went for a short drive. Upon restart the Speedo doesn't work and the Sway bar light is flashing.

Any ideas on how to fix this.

When my sway bar was flashing I just had to re-flash the 87 tune, not back to stock.

Cool, that worked. I was having flash backs thinking I would need to go back to the dealer.

Fully concur. I have been able to learn more about how to modify (albeit with baby steps) the behavior of the microscopic brain (PCM) of my miniscule powered engine in this thread, than with a dozen searches.

Now all we need is to program the Flashpaq or for Superchips to step up the schedule for the release of new performance profiles.

Finally got around to downloading the latest version (v1.18.07) and as other have mentioned much smoother at lower rpms and accelerating out of the hole. Glad it just keeps getting better!

To measure the accuracy of your SC tune in regards to odometer accuracy, use a gps to compare miles traveled or the old school mile markers on the highway

For two years I've never gotten more than 270 miles out of a tank of gas. First tank after I installed the SC w/the 87 tune I get 300 on the tank.
