I made some changes so I'll have to go out and get them, plus I have to input my numbers into a preloaded schedule as i do not have Microsoft office to create my own. it's a total PIA that will take me some time. I can prob have it done for tomorrow.

Thanks for responding

For a 03 my rcommendation would be to buy a older SC3815. We can't use the latest features of the SC3865 and there is no trans support available. So do the TMR mod, pwr wire and run a SC canned tune. The SC will also allow you to adjust the rev limiter and speed resricter. DSP will not. DSP will allow custom tunes, but you will still have the stock rev limiter holding the rpm. Good luck...

The tuner can only be used on ONE vehicle at a time. So, as long as a tune is loaded in your buddies truck, it will not work on your truck. He will have to return his truck back to stock so that you can load a tune in your truck.
If you purchase a used tuner and it is vinlocked, you will need to send it to Superchips directly and pay I believe it's $125 to have them unlock it.
You don't want a Bullydog for a gasser. Those are only good for diesels. Plus since you have an '07, you'll really want to take advantage of the Transmission tuneability which is an additional $40 ontop of the cost of the tuner...Well worth it IMO. Superchips tuner was the best investment for my truck. Bewtween the advanced shift schedule that I can create, the Torque Management reduction and the disabling MDS...It's by far my favorite mod for under $350.

Anybody else every get the "Com Error J1850 Check and Insure Ignition is on" error on the superchips programmer?

Everytime I try to log my speed or distance, its gives me the error. I've updated it a few times, and it never seems to change.

Anyone????
