I called the guy at Performance Products to find out what the scoop was on this. His line was that it was a "misprint". As far as I know, a misprint is a typo. This was no typo. The offer was clearly for 2005 3.7& 4.7 Dakotas for $499. I suggested they pull this thing ASAP. because there is no programmer for ourtrucks, PERIOD! Another aftermarket outfit called The Parts Bin tried to pull something similar(the Hyperpaq).
I strongly advise anybody who finds programmers supposedly for our trucks at any aftermarket website to check at the manufacturer's website be it Superchips, Hypertech or whatever. Do not order!
That's disheartening they'd try to pull that if this is bogus (which odds are it is). I've ordered from those guys a few times before and always been satisfied with them but that's just not good business practice...

the email thread from superchips support.....disappointing to say the least

I do not have an ETA on when it will come out, nor if it will include the 4.7 for those years.

That is the correct part #, but the product is not out yet.

Message: hi there,

was checking the website of one of your resellers
(http://www.performanceproducts4trucks.com) and did a search for compatible products with a 2005+ dodge dakota and they list the cortex performance programmer model 3950 however when I checked your site it doesn't show as a supported product.....any comments? do you make a tuner that works with the generation 3 dakotas (2005 - 2007, 3.7 and 4.7)?

THX

Ken

I e-mailed superchips and got some dissapointing news:

Yes, that project got pushed back for other priorities, so hopefully we
can get those out this year. I am hoping just as much as you are,
believe me!

It's still the same old crock of s*** responses from most of these aftermarket manufacturers: no plans at this time; 1st,2nd,3rd 4th quarter of next year, next month; in 3months; in 6months; not enough demand. Take your pick.All this B.S. sound familiar? Pathetic. See my post (today,1/9)about Bilstein shocks.

Not gonna happen anytime soon. Believe me, I check regularly. Anything you see, at any aftermarket website that claims to have a programmer for our trucks is a con job. They don't exist, period.
