If your vehicle is equipped with an electronic throttle body then engineered adjustments will be added to the vehicle once a chosen tuning level has been installed.

No, once it programs the PCM, you remove it.

hey guys put a comp cam 268 in and the timing is perfect but it wont stay running unless i keep on the gas i figured it was the ecm so i called comp cams and they said yeah need a tune cause it wouldn't work with factory ecm so i called hypertech, and bullydog about some of the different programmers and they said it would help but not fix my problem i talked to a few tuners in the area and they all said they need more info but one said he's done a few hemi's so he's familiar with it said its $450 for the custom programmer from superchips and $190 a hour for the dyno and he could do it in a couple of hours so $830 but before i do this i just wanted to make sure there isnt a $300-$400 hand held programmer i could buy instead and save some $$$

The only feature requiring you to leave the product plugged in is our Advanced Data Acquisition software or DAQ.

It allows you the ability to view real time sensor data while the engine is running.

First problem Superchips doesn't have custom tuning. Second of all, email hemifever@aol.com he does custom tuning with SCT which is the best option (possibly the only) for your 04 and custom tuning. He has successfully tuned countless 268 cams in Hemis. Email him and he will get you going.

Also his price is MUCH MUCH lower than 830 try half.

dynos around here are 75 for 3 pulls. imo you need to run away from that shop. also, common issues with guys who did cams and not running right are misplaced push rods
