What are the significant differences between chip 1 and 2 (ie shift points, horse power, timing, air fuel ratio, shift firmness ect). I am looking for a chip and this would be of great interest to me. Thanks.

Just so you guys know, the test man was Johnny Lightning. He was pleased with the performance but required 104 octane. Superchip is getting better, but they still have alot of testing to do.

My .02 cents worth....

Mike:

What enhancements would be in the standard performance mode over what I would have in my Superchip installed in December?

Thanks

To all,

Just wanted to let you all know of a new program combination that was tested at St. Louis for the 1999 Lightings, that is now available.

While typically the Superchip Flip Chip has been configured with the stock program in Position 1, and then the performance program in Position 2, we have a new combination available for those who are drag racing.

In Position 1, it's the latest performance program for thw 1999 Lighting, so you'll have nice power gains even in Position 1.

Then in Position 2, it's a program *STRICTLY* for drag racing. This program ran 13.16 @ 104 mph at St. Louis, on a 1999 Lightning with an opened airbox filter setup and this Superchip being the only mods, according to Bill & Jay @ Superchips.

You should only run the Position 2 program when you are drag racing, as it has certain tweaks optimized for all-out acceleration.

For those of you who have to have the most from your Lighting at the strip, this program is now available.

Wow... 32.2x" barometric pressure! That's amazing. I'd pay extra for that!

Excellent times! Thanks for being a "guinea-pig" for the rest of us.
