nelson performance vs. Superchip

cool - being a total noob I assume the swap is pull out old module put in new one ?? :).


any idea on the mpg boost I would see with a tune - not looking for a guarantee just a general idea.

It's a reflash and a reprogram, to increase power and most of the times mileage.

Hey if I have a pcmforless tune and wanna get a re tune from you all can you guys unlock that or would that be a problem? How about if I bring you a pcm from a six speed car? Can you adapt that to my automatic?

Thanks

Ya, that easy, just swap them.
It can be anywhere from 0 to 4mpg, I know that's a broad range, but it depends...

No, can't unlock them, we'd have to start from a new pcm.
Yes, we can tune for any drivetrain.

been reading up on it do - I would have to do some crank relearn? or something and take it to a dealer

Every pcm that is installed, should have a ckp relearn done, however, most of them don't require it becuase most of them don't set the ses light.

But, if it does happen, you'll be able to drive the vehicle until you find a qualified shop.

I do the CKP's for members for little or nothing if need be for anyone local.

There's plenty of room to grow if you have a Superchip tune. On their max setting the command fuel power enrichment is set close to command 11.8 AFR at WOT and the delay is at 0 which I wouldn't recommend if you want any gas mileage at all, it should be set around 2500 but that's my opinion. The only other settings are to the timing tables and the shift points and that's pretty much it. You can still go a little higher on the timing and correct idle speed for cam swaps which when we made changes to the Superchips settings the idle table didn't change in HPT. :ugh2: Superchips is good for someone that doesn't want to pay for a custom tune and doesn't care about max HP. In other words it will keep you in the safe zone.

I had a slp diablo sport programmer for my 01 ram air and at $495 i was sick as hell. It wasn't worth $4.95. Dont have a nelson tune yet but its coming in the near future.
