i've been reading alot of post on this board and the chip board .There's plenty on superchips what about fordchips which is better?

 

I'd stick with the Superchip. Never heard of the Fordchip.

 

i have heard lots about ford chip...i remember one member got banned b/c he talked about it or something....but all i know is that it is custom programmed distinctly for the 4.2 v6....i believe superchips is too.. you may want to ask in performance chip section

 

both make a good chip and fordchip makes chips for more than just v-6

should be on urban legion list.
that member would not let it go, made claims that were NEVER backed up and on others boards has finally admitted that while fordchip makes a good chip customer service is not good. so he got booted for taking a stand that now, turns out was not so good.

some of the people from fordchip are working on the sct software and so i dont know if the people at fordchips are still doing it or if fordchip is second chair to the sct.

i think fordchips place in the market is doing dyno days were they come to a town and tune cars on a dyno, if you have a lot of mods it is hard to deny that this would be the best way. if your mods dont include head work cams or superchargers then how much do you need a custom chip. if you get a custom tune for a throttle body, pulleys and a glass pack then IMO you have wasted your money.

if you have a handfull of mods and want a chip without the hassel then mike t. with superchips is hard to beat. he even has a phone that he answers.

 

Never heard of a fordchip but diablochips, superchips, and jet make one for a v6 4.2.

 

i dont know i want to go with a super chip but i need a costum programmed chip -large tires,and there so expensive ,so i guess i'll just wait for hell to freeze over and for some one to finally make one .any one have any feed back thanks.

 

what year truck? 99 up i assume? Fordchip is got a bad rep for bad customer service but has great tuning. I got a superchip custom flipchip with crappy tuning and ok customer service.

 

its a 02

 

I have a superchip...

Can't say if its crappy tuning because its the only one I have ever had, but I am happy with it. Also, I have had great customer serives with the chip! I wrote a few emails and made a few calls (all of which were answered) in order to get the chip working (partly/mostly due to installer error...I didnt know I had to scrape the coting off the contats with a screwdriver).

 

I got the Jet Chip in my V6..

I've got a standard transmission and I love the changes in shiftpoints...

Felt like driving a differant vehicle!
