I had to update the tuner two times in order to get the tunes for my truck once I got the tune installed it don’t change my shift points in the transmission my first chip I got back in 2000 changed my shift points as well up the horse power .you would think we’d have better technology in 2021.
I had called the tech line about four times and all the techs I talked to were nice and helpful.

This programmer makes a big difference with my 2008 Expedition (5.4 V8, 6 speed auto). Fuel saver mode gave me around 2 mpg better on the highway, Performance 91 gives it a great snarl and significantly more power. Regular 87 mode, after a day or two, had smoother shifting and less gear hunting at low loads. Feels a little more powerful too. I haven't tried towing yet.

I leave it in 87 fuel saver mode. I found out that towing mode is for 91 and higher octane, so it is worthless to me. Im not going to pay 50 cents or more per gallon for towing, I will never recover the cost. That is my only dislike about this product.
by: Mark H. 05/15/2014
The Flashpaq seems to be working really well for fuel economy but I haven't tried it with my 5th wheel yet. If it works as good as the service I had from etrailer, I don't think that I'll have any problems at all. You guys were great with keeping me updated on my order.
Thank you

Have you tried the towing feature as of yet? Just curious how the Flashpaq did. I pull a 24 travel trailer with a 2005 Expedition and it needs some help!Thanks,Lonnie H

Had an EDGE tuner for my '08 F250 that I liked better. This one is kind of slow to update the computer (2 files, with lots of ignition off/on cycles). I tried the Performance tune and went for a quick ride. Yep, it worked. Loaded the Towing program, we'll see how that works out.

Only the preinstalled updates are available, so unfortunately there is no way to do custom updates with this. There may be updates available on Superchips website that you can download onto this device using the included USB. Hopefully in the future, there will be a new quicker install update available.

Really helped unlocking power at lower RPM with heavy trailer load. Easy to use.

Took about 10 mins for the PCM to upload the stock tune then about another 5 minutes to program the Fuel savings tune, I could almost instantly notice a difference. I drive a pretty steep hill on my way to work and always have to downshift and lose speed near the top, not anymore I can take the hill in 5th and Speed up as well. 20 HP doesn’t seem like much but it makes a huge difference. Next text will be when I tow my RV to the coast on the heavy towing tune.

Product arrived on time. Works as advertised. Easy plug and play type interface. Like being able to change my trucks program as I see fit. Would recommend to anyone that likes tweaking cars and trucks.

Performance gains provided by the Flashpaq F5 are dependent on many different variables, including using the correct octane fuel, and the overall condition of vehicles drivetrain.

Ford F-150
Very nice works great and very easy to operate. The ford F150 has a lot more throttle power and it is great for towing. I would advise anyone who needs a tune up or wants to tow to definitely.get one. Best money i've spent in a long time.

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

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: Daniel08/10/2021
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: John D.05/31/2018
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!

See what our Experts say about this Superchips Performance Chip
- Is it Better to Run Superchips Flashpaq F5 in Performance or Tow Mode I would run the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner # SU1845 in performance mode unless you are towing. The performance mode will give you the most power and fuel efficiency whereas the tow mode does similar but it also affects how the transmission shifts to optimize for towing a trailer which wouldn't be needed if you weren't towing.

I reached out to SuperChips and asked them what the power gains would be with this tuner # SU1845 on your 7.3L Diesel. I was told that there are 4 programs, two performance, one towing and one economy. The lower of the two performance settings you will gain around 80 horsepower and 180 lb/ft of torque. The top performance setting will gain you up to about 112 horsepower and up to 205 lb/ft of torque. The tow setting will gain around 60 horsepower and 150 lb/ft of torque and the economy...
view full answer... - Determining Towing Capacity of 2014 Ford F-150 and Upgrade Options to Improve PerformanceSubtracting the CGVW (Gross Combined Vehicle Weight) from the GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) is indeed the most accurate way to determine a particular vehicle's true towing capacity. Because there are so many potential variables as to what was actually added to the truck at the factory, this is the ideal method. With that being said I wasn't able to find any specifics on if or by how much not having the factory tow package would decrease the towing capacity of your F-150. It's also important...

A canned tune is a program already installed on the device from the manufacturer. To experience the full effects of the performance tuner, I recommend pairing the device with a cold air intake like the Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake System part # AR400-338 if you do not already have...

I then looked in the owner's manual for you and found the exact steps needed to do so and I have attached these for you below. If you still find that the speed limiter is being enforced at a value different than the one you selected, you will need to uninstall the tune and repeat the process. Please...

- Recommended Performance Tuner For 2004 Ford F-350 With Triton V10 EngineWe do have a tuner that is designed to work for your 2004 Ford F-350 with the V10 Triton engine. If you do not live in California the tuner we have is part # SU1845.

This device will indeed allow you to adjust the individual shift points as well as provide increases in horsepower/torque and MPG's. The Superchips Flashpaq F5 can also read and clear DTC's if needed. The device will get plugged into the OBDII port for installation and then once the tune is written it can be unplugged and stored in the glove box.

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...

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.

Super chip tuner About a year ago I installed super chip tune I installed the light tow tune they said it’s around 80 hp. I also installed a pyrometer known l would be towing more weight then recommended so far it’s worked out great no complaints.
