Does anyone know if a Mac can support the Superchips tuner? I had read in other posts that the Diablo tuners did not work with Mac, only PC's. Is the same true for the Cortex or Flash Pac? I would hate to buy it and find out it doesn't, which would turn this $300 upgrade into a $1300 upgrade when I have to buy a PC to make it work! Thanks!

If worse comes to worse just install a copy of windows on your mac. Can be done either via bootcamp or an add on program like vmfusion. Much cheaper than buying one of those pc things...

Valid question. I don't really know. I ordered the Cortex b/c of the warranty alone though. It's on backorder with Cabela's unfortunately.

Eariler in this post Sils said it was basically the warranty.


"So whats the difference between the flaspaq and Cortex.. Biggest difference is, Cortex offers a two year power train warranty through Superchips. Tuning is the same for both units.

Is there a Horsepower difference, options difference, etc. No difference between units."

Ok..sorry...I didn't read the first 20 pages of this post. I was looking on the superchips website and couldn't find anything that said what the difference was except for the warranty. Thanks for the quick reply.

Cabella's appears to be one of the lowest prices so far for new. 299. Last time I checked they were on BO though.

Good idea. If this tuner is as good as it appears to be, it would be worth it either way. Thanks, Loansinpa.
