Superchips flash cal

Post by yellowranger1 » Thu Nov 10, 2016 11:47 am

Hope this works, according to SDHQ, this will work to adjust speedo/tire size..... AND TPMS for our trucks! I asked in a comment and they confirmed it will work, I'm planning calling and speaking to a live person to confirm again and if so, I'll be ordering one today. According to the superchips site price is around $200

Well.... conflicting info now, superchips rep said he wasn't aware the 2500 came with a 6.4 he kept insisting I had a 6.7 so he says it won't work but clearly not the most informed source on the trucks.

Haha, classic. We're used to people not knowing anything about PW specifics, but somebody not knowing what size gas engine is going in the Ram HD trucks??? Wow

Yeah, pretty much what I figured. As far as I know, Diablosport is the only tuner that works on the 16 and you need their PCM. And I still don't think it will do TPMS.

Well hell, sorry for the false hope guys... I may have jumped the gun and gotten excited for nothing. Definitely not willing to go through the expense of the diablo sport path only to still have the tpms light staring me in the face.

I emailed SDHQ asking if they can verify that this will work for the newer 2500 6.4 Hemi trucks. Hopefully they can get better info from superchips. I'll post up as soon as I get an answer back.

There is another speedometer calibrator on the market that works with the 6.7, 5.7, and 6.4. It's possible this does too.

EDIT: I looked at Superchips, the same model speedometer calibrator works on the 5.7 1500 and 6.7 2500. I think it is safe to assume that it also works on the 5.7 and 6.4 2500 based on how similar products work. I'm not sure about the TPMS feature though.

My Edge tuner corrects the speedo on my '05, but I don't know about TPMS because I am fortunate enough to not have TPMS. We have two TPMS vehicles in the family and I can truthfully say that I hate it.

I like the TPMS just not the inability to change the low pressure threshold. My wife's Mazda has a user interface that lets the driver set the minimum pressure. The TPMS in my work car has saved me twice in the last year. If I could change the threshold in my truck I would have no complaints.

I agree with reloader. I really like the tpms, just not the fact that the thresholds cant be changed.

Got an answer direct from SDHQ, they reached out to superchips and got a straight answer. We're out of luck unfortunately for the time being at least

I stopped by the local Ram dealer today to ask if they had an Autel MaxSys to reprogram my TPMS. Instead of asking a tech if they had the system, the service writer just wanted to argue about what some sheet of paper said. Some people are too dumb to realize when customers want to give them money. If superchips can get this working I'll buy one.

Did anyone ever try one of these for the 5.7? They list TPMS adjustment but i find that hard to believe.

I dont think it is too hard to adjust the TPMS for the older 4th gens. Its the newer trucks that are about impossible.
