I am getting a superchips tuner for my '08 5.7L soon. However when I started researching into the models its quite confusing as to which to get. What are the differences between the Cortex, Flashpaq, Vivid Paq, and Vivid Linq? I noticed the Vivid is almost double the price. Why is this?

 

I'll have to go to the site, but I thought I remember there being a side-by-side comparo?

 

I'll check that out, but I dont remember seeing that option.

 

I don't know a lot about the specs but I know that the Vivid LINQ is for Android phones and devices. Plug the LINQ adapter into your truck and download the app for your phone or other Android device and that controls it.

 

Ethan is right. If you have an Andriod phone, you just have to buy the Linq and not only will your phone be able to program your truck, you can mount it and it will display almost anything you can imagine. You can go to the Android market right now and download the app for free, put it in demo mode and check it out, its pretty cool.

 

with the linq you are paying out the *** for a stupid bluetooth dongle. I mean it IS cool and all, but should be cheaper IMO since the actual processing and hardware is done via your phone.

 

So what about the flashpaq, cortex, and the vivid paq? The vivid paq is over 600 dollars and the flashpaq and cortex are between 3-400.

 

Anyone?

 

I think the vividpaq is the same as the vivid linq one with the exception that it comes with a little touchscreen instead of using your smartphone and the SC app. That's why it is so expensive. Cortex and flashpaq are the same product in my understanding but the cortex comes with a 2 year powertrain warranty. The flashpaq does not. They all do the same thing it's just some have some more non-performance related bells and whistles.

 

Alright so the cortex comes with 2 year powertrain? I currently have the 100,000 mile powertrain warranty through dodge, and I certainly wont exceed the 100k mark in the next two years. Now if I screw around and blow my tranny will they be able to tell that I was using a tuner when I take it in and void my warranty?
