Just before the last SEMA Show I was given the opportunity to test out the Superchips Flashpaq on my 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee.  After talking a bit with Brian Fletcher, the company’s resident marketing guru, I received the Flashpaq 3875 in the mail a few days later. My results were phenomenal to say the least.

The very first feature I played with was speedometer correction.  I was able to fine tune my speedo using my GPS and immediately noticed improved shift timing, and fuel mileage.

Next, I started playing with the fun stuff; the power settings.

• The towing tune had some interesting shifting behavior; very ideal for that kind of use as it liked to carry more RPM’s on hills and down shifted much more aggressively.
• The 87 octane tune gave a slight power increase and complimented the exhaust and intake mods quite nicely.  The firmer shifts were also very nice.
• The 91 performance tune was a real treat.  That 4.7L V8 really liked the more aggressive power.  The gain was very noticeable, to the point I had to take it away from myself.  The extra power gave me a happy right foot and I was going broke buying fuel.  Coincidentally though, when I could behave…I could get over 20mpg on the highway.

Conclusion: The new Flashpaqs are awesome and worth every penny.  If you’ve thought about getting one for your rig, stop thinking and start ordering.

Special Thanks to: Superchips & Brian Fletcher
