Vehicle Programming Instructions
PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE INSTRUCTION SHEET BEFORE YOU PROCEED
Thank you for choosing Superchips' new FLASHPAQ Tuner,
a state-of-the-art, high powered tuning and data acquisition
tool. We listened to our customers and created this product
from your requests.
The new FLASHPAQ Tuner includes the following features:
Internet Updateable - Supports web updates
Built-In DTC Definitions - No lookup manual needed
Built-In Help Screens - Reduces need for user manual
USB Communications - Connects to any PC
Custom Application Upgradeable - Download customs
Multiple Tuning Levels - User Selectable Tuning Types
Increased User Options - Allow user more control
Ergonomically Designed Case - Fits well in hand
Large, SoftKey Buttons - Easy operation
Permanently mounted cable - No assembly required
300% Bigger Screen - Includes graphics support
BackLight Screen - Easy to view day or night
Your 1815 FLASHPAQ houses specialized databases that contain optimally calibrated,
individual vehicle application, performance programs which tune BOTH the engine &
transmission. Superchips calibrations include optimization of the entire power band - from idle to
redline! Part throttle, as well as Wide Open Throttle is covered with Superchips FLASHPAQ
Tuning. Superchips calibrations are intended for stock vehicles.
Minimum Octane Requirements:
Super charged vehicles - 91 octane
Performance and Towing V8 - 91 octane
Performance and Towing V6 - 87 octane
The "87 Octane" Tuning Level provides optimal motor tuning while operating with 87 Octane fuel.
(Use of premium fuel is NOT recommended with this tune.)
If your vehicle is a Lightning or super-charged Harley Davidson Edition vehicle, an "HP4"
tuning level is offered in lieu of the "87 Octane" tuning level for use when a 4lb pulley is used to
raise boost pressure. Do not select this tuning level if you have the stock pulley installed.
Doing so will degrade engine performance.
The Superchips 1815 FLASHPAQ also offers users the following (options vary by vehicle):
Raise the Vehicle Top Speed Limiter
Raise the Engine Rev Limiter - Except 05-07' F250
Selectable Axle Ratio Size (Correction of Speedometer & Shift Points) - Except 05-07' F250
Selectable Tire Height (Correction of Speedometer & Shift Points)
Selectable automatic transmission Shift Point (per gear)
Selectable automatic transmission Shift Pressure (per gear)
