I think this question has been asked before, but NO you cannot. Main reason being, the Superchips replaces the program in the computer (whatever that program happens to be) with the new performance program in the programmer.

It's not like a diesel where you can keep adding fuel to make power. We're missing the turbo plus we have these pesky spark plugs in the way.

don't add a jet, they're just bad news.

pretty much all a chip does (as far as engine goes) on gas engines is advance timing. if you really want to do that some more, add a power wire from airram, or make your own by adding a resistor in line with your IAT sensor.

But if you do this and have a SC also, make sure you are ALWAYS using a higher octane gas than what the superchips wants you to use, otherwise you will knock, the engine will retard timing by a lot in a single jump, and all your gains will be lost.

so you can run a jet chip and the superchip 3815 with better gains than with just one or the other?

No. The SC is already advancing the timing and leaning the mixture to make more power.
Personally, I would ditch it and order the new Diablosport Predator for the best possible gains. www.diablosport.com

Question Stacking Tuners

There was a very recent post on the HTC (Hemi Truck Club) Forum that said 'yes' you could stack it with the new Diablo Predator where the Diablo reads your SC Tune as stock and upgrades from there? I can't verify this at all or know if it's pure bs; but if it does work it may advance your timing to the point of explosion*** Might be fun while it lasts!

That would be hard since it hasn't quite been released yet. They are taking pre-orders now for a very soon release date.

It will offer 20rwhp and 20rwtq as well as better economy and trans shifts.
