Caution 

For V8 engines, the “Performance”, “Towing”, and “HP4” tuning level requires that you 
use at least 91 octane fuel. Using a lower octane fuel while the “Performance”, “Towing”, 
or “HP4” tuning level is selected for your V8 may cause “pinging” that can be harmful to 
your vehicle. This is not covered under your vehicle warranty or Superchips warranty. 

 
 
Your Vehicle’s STOCK Program

 

The FLASHPAQ Tuner stores a copy of your vehicle’s original stock computer program. 
To begin, your vehicle’s 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 an aftermarket 
performance-enhancing electronic device installed, it must be removed prior to using the 
Superchips FLASHPAQ Tuner. 
 

Your Vehicle and Service Centers 

If you need to return your vehicle to a service center, restore the vehicle’s program to its STOCK 
program.  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 FLASHPAQ Tuner 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 FLASHPAQ Tuner to your vehicle, make sure that: 

 

All power-draining accessories are turned off, including radio, lights, cell phones, etc... 
The FLASHPAQ Tuner needs full battery voltage to program your vehicle.  

 

Ensure your vehicle battery is fully charged and not connected to a battery charger.  

 

Do not leave the FLASHPAQ Tuner connected and unattended for any length of time. 
This prevents unnecessary battery drain.  

 

Do not remove the programming cable during any programming sequence. 
Please follow the FLASHPAQ Tuner display screens. 

 

 

 
 
 
 

Important Note Regarding Storage of Your 

FlashPaq

 Tuner 

It is not recommended to store your FlashPaq Tuner in your vehicle in extreme heat, direct 

sunlight, or extreme cold (temperatures near or below freezing). These conditions can cause 

malfunction or damage to the FlashPaq Tuner not covered by the Superchips Inc. warranty. 

About Maximum Trailer Weight 

The original manufacturer of your vehicle has specified a Maximum Trailer Weight for your 
vehicle. It may be found in your vehicle owner’s manual. 

 

This Superchips product is designed to increase your engine power and performance. It 
does not change the engine, suspension or drive train characteristics that limit the maximum 
trailer weight your vehicle is designed to tow. Towing trailer weights above the maximum 
trailer weight specified by the vehicle manufacturer may cause transmission or other 
damage.  

 

If you wish to tow greater than the maximum trailer weight for your vehicle, modifications to 
your vehicle may need to be made. Consult your performance auto mechanic for the proper 
vehicle modifications. 

 

Damage caused by towing weights greater than the maximum trailer weight specified for 
your vehicle shall not be the responsibility of Superchips Inc.
