I am looking at a Superchips 3842 Flashpaq Computer Chip Programmer it looks like it has a lot of setting and can be set back to factory and may be good for other makes and models down the road. Just afraid of trashing my trans.? but I will take a look at the Edge EZ .
thanks Luke |
I got a superchips on my 01 it's alright just always on towing mode gained a few mpg buddy swears by his edge ez and he's running 327k on a 01
|
I am ok with the way it runs now I just need a little more for towing, and I trying to keep the price down. not planning on keeping it long I really need a dually. I am towing a 39ft fifth wheel.

Go with the Edge. I had the superchips in my truck and hated it. I then bought the Edge EZ. I love this chip. Makes good power. I've never had any issues with a lack of power to haul. Gave me some better fuel mileage as long as you're not wide open throttle all the time. I brought a car back from Indianapolis to Pittsburgh. Drove between 70 and 75 mph the whole way back and got around 17 mpg out of it. Heading out to get the car was around 20.5 with an empty trailer. They are decently prices on amazon. Also found with the superchips in my wife's truck it gave here a trans issue also. Changed the programmer and it went away. Not a big superchips can since then.

been checking out the Edge. think I am going one. took a look at amazon and found prices about the same as the superchip.
Had to replace My raptor 100? it just stoped working. don't know? would prim the filter but after that nothing, I think the pr valve went bad.:scare2: |
Mine and my wife's trucks both had that issue. Couldn't find the problem. I just took the relay out and put a jumper wire in the relay block. They've been working fine since.
|
where would I find the relay, is that on the pump. I have never taken the pump apart..
|
Mine is on the firewall next to my clutch master cylinder. There should be wires running from the battery, into the engine harness, and to the pump from the relay block. I'm trying to attach a photo of the way I have mine setup. I can't figure out how to post it to the thread but if you look on my profile under the pictures in the album titled " my truck " I was able to post them in there.
