Default superchips 05 thru 07 4.7 tuner update

went to upload the tuner into truck. got as far as reading stock file then tuner said needs and update. went to flashpaq.com and downloaded the required update. tuner came back
NO CALIBRATION SUPPORT AT THIS TIME (WTF) called superchips it is going to be 7 to 10 days before i get my updates. these tuners have nothing in them. when you download the stock file it stores it into the tuner. when you download the update it sends your stock file to sc so they can do the calibrations. and then send you the final update. right now i have a 400.00 paper weight. just given you people a heads up just incase it happens to someone

diablo has no plans with the 4.7 , and hypertech only deals with the 08 and up 4.7. i purchased the 3815, which sc states it is the first to the market with this 4.7

What firmware is your Flashpaq updated to? They had a new firmware released on Oct 31 (fimware version 1.25) that says it deals with an error on the '05 Dak.

Ok.... Now i'm really confused !!! I wrote and called SuperChip about a month ago and they told me they don't support the 4.7 magnum for the Ram even though there web page says it does and other dealers have info and sell there product says it supports the 4.7 magnum..

So what is the deal do they or do they not support the 4.7 ????

This is there reply to my email:


We currently do not have a product for that vehicle.

Message: I was reading about the Tirepaq Tuner and says you can upgrade
it to a full Flashpaq Tuner is this correct??? Also the Tirepaq is
the only model that I see for my 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L.

What is the best tuner for my model of truck??

thanks in advanced,

Correct 04-07 4.7L is now an option in the 3815 Flashpaq and 3950 Cortex.
