Default People with Superchips, wanna do me a favor?

I spoke with SuperChips and they said through an email that it would not work on my Mitsubishi Raider. I was hoping to prove otherwise. I'm hoping that a fellow Dodge Forum user will allow me to try it on my truck and see if it works. I would put it on and then put it off. I'm in the Coast Guard and I'm traveling to Florida in a few months to live. I'll be in the Saint Petersburg/Tampa area. I will also be in Fayetteville, NC on the 24th. Right now I am in Easton PA, but will be leaving tomorrow. That will be awesome if someone would let me put it on and then take it back off. thanks in advance.

Wow, tough Crowd! I feel ya though. Beats the hell out of trying to get reimbursed after the fact if it gets fried.

Yea Dirty Jerz gets old. Thats fine Frenchy, no offense taken. Maybe it's not a good idea in the first place. Just forget that I asked, I'll just buy the HO cams and put them in myself.

you have a 30 day return policy if you are not happy with the tuner or if it is not compatible with your truck. worst case, you would be in the same boat i was in for the last 8 weeks. but now everything is fixed and running the way it should.

Just bustin' Cuban. Not that I can say Jersey is any better, but I grew up close to Easton and it's pretty much a s*#t hole if you ask me. Except for the hill. Gotta love those Lafayette girls.

You think you can get a tuner to work that the manufacturer says will not? Do you realize that the first thing the tuner does is check the PCM model & serial number against it's database and if it's not there, will not even try to back it up or install a tune?

So, even if your truck came off the same assembly line as a supported one, and the tune would work for your truck, if the PCM is not in there, it still will not install.

You'd be wasting your time...

Also, if the tuner WOULD work with the raider, Don't you think SC would want to publish that information and increase their target market?

Maybe so, but what if they don't have access to a raider and just say no because its easier to say that and there isnt too much of a raider population anyway?

i have never seen a raider on the street, and cuban is the only person i know that owns one. if you need to service the truck, where do you bring? dodge or mitsu? send one of the engineers your code off of the pcm. they can look it up and really give you a straight answer,
