Superchips Model 1725 MAX MicroTuner 

4.6L Ford Automobiles 

Vehicle Programming Instructions 

 

PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE INSTRUCTION SHEET BEFORE YOU PROCEED 

 
Thank you for choosing the Superchips Model 
1725 MAX MicroTuner, a state-of-the-art 
instrument that allows you to install a

 

Superchips 

performance program specifically tuned for your 
vehicle and your driving requirements. 

 

You can select between a Performance program 
when you are using premium fuel and a 
program that provides optimum performance 
when using 87 octane fuel. 

 

You can custom tune your shift points and shift 
firmness, and optionally raise or lower the 
vehicle rpm and speed limiters. Vehicles with 
electronic speedometers allow for correction to 
compensate for gear changes and tire size. The 
Model 1725 MAX MicroTuner also allows you to 
adjust the turn-on temperature for your 
vehicle’s electric fans. 

 

  

This product is intended for use on unmodified stock engines.

 

 

 

Your Vehicle’s STOCK Program 

The MAX MicroTuner stores a copy of your vehicle’s original stock computer program.  Your 
vehicle computer must contain the manufacturer’s STOCK factory program.  If you have used a 
programmer from another aftermarket company you must use their product to return your 
computer back to STOCK condition before proceeding. If you have a performance enhancing chip 
installed, it must be removed. 

 

Your Vehicle and Service Centers 

If you need to return your vehicle to a service center, restore the vehicle program to its STOCK 
program as described below.  The service center might reprogram your vehicle with an updated 
STOCK program without your knowledge. If your vehicle has not been returned to its STOCK 
program prior to service, the Superchips MAX MicroTuner will no longer be able to program your 
vehicle. Such a failure is not covered by the Superchips Inc. warranty. 

 

Vehicle Preparation 

Before connecting the MAX MicroTuner to your vehicle, make sure that all power draining 
accessories are turned off. Radio, lights, cell phones, etc., all need to be turned off as the MAX 
MicroTuner needs full battery voltage to program. Ensure your vehicle battery is fully charged 
and not connected to a battery charger. Do not leave the MAX MicroTuner connected and 
unattended for any length of time to prevent unnecessary battery drain. Do not remove the 
programming cable during any programming sequence. 

Important Note Regarding Storage of Your MAX MicroTuner 

 

It is recommended that you not store your MAX MicroTuner in your vehicle if ambient 
temperatures in your area fall below 32

o

F. Excessively low temperatures can cause 

malfunction or damage to the MAX MicroTuner that is not covered by the Superchips Inc. 
warranty.
