    Is your Superchips still a "virgin"?

    I have a 2005 build date of March 05 Magnum R/T.
    Has anyone else not upgraded their Superchips Unit?

    Mines is still a ver. 1.0

    Haven't heard any positive things to upgrade other than a few doodads, but no real performance improvements.
    Did I miss something?

    Still virgin. Idle has been getting rough intermittantly lately though. I may just try pulling fuse #17.

    My SCTuner is still a virgin, V1.0 and I haven't seen any compelling reason to alter it...

    I was told by Ron at Superchips that the tranny programming was much-improved in later versions. Not an added feature but the same one better implemented after the initial release experience, I guess you could say.

    Yup, the benefits of version 1.0 wouldn't matter with the BnG installed. But, here's the real kicker, your gonna like this.




    I only upgraded the unit so I could run the data logging feature. Well, guess what. Now with the BnG PCM, ya can't do that anymore.

    F-me to tears damn-it.

    Well, it sure looks like the consensus is you can't beat a virgin.

    I've applied every update that came out. Throttle reponse is still good and the idle is super smooth. If it weren't for the rumble of the Magnaflows, you wouldn't know the car was running at idle.

    I've also had all the updates that were applicable to the TCM. My only issue is that under WOT my engine light blinks. Not sure why that is happening.
