The three POWER SETTING LEVELS on the

Flashpaq for the 08 Superduty are as follows:

1. Performance Tune

– Max 78 HP – Max 146 ft lbs torque – NO TOWING permitted

2. Tow Performance – Max 51.3 HP – Max 110 ft lbs torque – 6000lb Tow Limit

3. Transmission Only – Optimizes Transmission Performance

4. Stock – Completely restore ALL factory settings

Performance Tune is the highest level, more often referred to as the “race”, “top horsepower”, “fast”, “extreme” setting. You would put it on this setting to reach the highest horsepower level, and as you may have guessed, No… you should not expect better fuel efficiency in this setting. It is also not recommended to leave this setting on for long periods of time. Also there should be NO TOWING on this setting. You will want to bring it back down to a normal setting to increase your fuel economy, and have smaller hp gains.

Tow Performance is the medium level. This program is recommended for towing applications. Please note that this program does not in any way raise the vehicle manufacturer specified tow limit of the vehicle. This Performance Tow program provides an increase of 51.3 rear wheel horsepower and 110 lbs. ft. of torque.Towing should be restricted to about 6000lb.

Transmission Only optimizes your transmission performance.- With this program only the TCM is reprogrammed by the Flashpaq. This program will improve shift firmness and shift points to enhance vehicle performance. Quicker, firmer upshifts and downshifts will be achieved and will enhance both 0-60 and 1/4 mile track times.

Stock- This is the original file created by the vehicle manufacturer. The user has the option at any time to completely restore the vehicle ECM and TCM to the original stock status. The ECM/TCM operating systems are not permanently modified in any way.

This programmer is designed help the overall drivability of your Superduty, while increasing your fuel economy.

How it Works: The Flashpaq programmer connects to the OBD2 port of the vehicle through the attached OBD2 cable. The Flashpaq downloads and stores the stock engine and transmission file to the device memory. The user then answers questions to select desired options and chooses one of three tuning programs offered by Superchips. Once the program is chosen by the user the Superchips files are uploaded (programmed) to the engine control module and the transmission control module to optimize vehicle performance including the options chosen by the user.

The Superchips Flashpaq programmer is the only tuning device on the market of its kind that can program both the transmission control module (TCM) and the engine control module (ECM). This capability allows Superchips to ensure that transmission settings are optimized to function properly with the changes to fueling through the engine control module (ECM) and therefore improve overall drivability.

**You can usually expect approximately 1 to 2 miles per gallon increase while in lower stages. my4x4online nor Superchips guarantee any increase in fuel efficiency. It varies depending on driving habits and conditions.
