Question

I was doing research on superchips. Now for 300$ you can buy a unit to tune your computer? And if so, can you tune multible veichels with this $300 unit? How much does it cause to tune your computer at a local shop. Sorry for the questions. I'm New at this stuff

Yes, the Superchips Microtuner will do what you want, assuming you have a 1996 or newer V8 or V10 or 1994.5 - 2003 7.3L Powerstroke diesel for that price. See here: http://www.motorhaven.com/customer/home.php?cat=8

If you don't have have a vehicle that falls into that category, you'll have to go with a chip. See here: http://www.motorhaven.com/customer/home.php?cat=37

A local shop will sell you the unit for full retail ($420), they don't "tune" it.

No, you cannot tune more than one vehicle with it. If you could do that then Superchips wouldn't be able to sell units because everyone could get their buddy to retune their vehicle!
