Ok just called and they said it had been out of stock at the warehouse and shipped today, don't know if I believe them or not.
Got mine around noon, didn't you order yours before me? Maybe they used a different warehouse for your order? I hate waiting for stuff.. Good luck....

I ordered the SC3865. Hopefully I'll get everything sorted soon and have the truck back where I was before screwing the Diablo. The only thing positive will be that I'll be able to compare the two power wise.

Redtruck let me know what you think. I switched. Tend to think the Diablo was feels better. Seemed to be getting considerably better gas milage with it as well. All the issues I was reading about people having, your comments, and the lack of the support people were getting kinda worried me a bit. Decided to try out the super chips. I like the full trans options with the sc (diablo had most of them but not all for the 08s). My hope is with all these trans settings that i can get it close to what i was getting out of the diablo and maybe gain back some of the gas milage that i lost by switching. However, the ease of mind seams to almost be worth the difference in performance since it is still way better than stock!

It won't program the '97. Superchips coverage starts at '98. The cortex should cover the other 2 but if you didn't already know, it only programs one vehicle at a time.

Ok guys, seems I am in a bit of a jam. Got the new SC 3865 updated ready to install, but only get an statement saying "vehicle needs factory update". This would be no big deal except I had my PCM reflashed last Monday at the dealer. Now what do I do? I'll have to assume the dealer didn't fully install the update and has screwed up my PCM setting. This has me thinking that perhaps all dealers are not able to properly work on the 2003 model. The dealer is suppose to call me Monday morning, along with Jason from SC. Has anyone had a problem similar to this?
Thanks,

That's not encouraging. Is there a way to reformat the PCM for a better term? I have reflashed the PCM two times and the dealer tells me it is elocked and they are unable to update the version number. Does this sound right or are they blowing smoke. I don't know if the dealer is just not capable of working with an 03 or has Diablo indeed elocked my PCM. Who do I believe? Anyone with experience with this please pitch in.
Thanks,
