Be Careful of Superchips, dyno results actuals
#91
Do you guys ever watch infomercials? It slices, it dices, etc. etc. Products are almost always presented this way. I have never felt that there was significant evidence to support buying a chip. These “superchips” seem to be sacred cows here, and I am not sure why. The company’s representative seems very good at working with consumers until you question his product or methods. I love reading these posts; it’s like watching a daytime drama! Nevertheless, I hope those who have purchased their decoder rings are happy and that those who do not are happy as well.

Bubba,
If you like those wussy soccer mom shifts that slip for 3 minutes into the next gear then maybe a superchip is not for you. The Ford softshift was designed for people who don't have a pair (Literally!) and maybe people who forgot they do. If you own a Ford that is the #1 reason to buy a chip of any kind.

Bubba,
Because one is a member here one has certain un-written privileges that come with membership. One of them is, if you are ever in need of assistance all you have to do is ask and I am sure that by the time you finish asking you will have at least 10 replies of "How can I help?".
Well Mike T has made friends here that would draw straws for the privilege to help him. You can knock Superchips all you want that is your right. Prove it or hush up, I say. But when you start slandering or character assassination, then look over Mike's shoulder and you will see me along with a bunch of others drawing straws.
Kindest regards
