Just a question. Will any chip or programer be able to give us back pilot injection? If they could, then I'll lay the money down as I'm sure alot of others would too!

The Superchips product hasn't been released yet, can't answer that. What you see above is all the information I have.

Does this unit store the original flash program so that you can restore the settings to the most recent factory flash if you need to take it in for service?

I assume it will, all other Microtuners do. All the information I have is in the announcement. I can't answer any questions other than point to the announcement. As I get more information I'll post it.

It has been my experience that Superchips products are of the very highest quality with the fewest bugs first time out. Since tuners are easy to change, I'll probably get one of these too!

The first question that I would like to see answered is will the tuner leave trace codes.

I will echo Choctaw Bob's comment regarding Superchips. I had one of their chips in my '98 F-150 and was quite happy with it.

To answer your questions:

Yes, the superchips unit can be returned to stock, just like the 7.3L unit

It will not leave trace codes, other than "more driving time needed", which of course is set everytime you disconnect your battery, let alone blink.
This code is never a cause for concern and goes away quickly.
There is no "stamp" left of the stock program to leave traces.
=o)

hmmm.....
It's pretty important that my e-mail address isn't posted....
You can have it, but I don't want it floating around here because I'll get 1,000 e-mails. I can send you e-mail if you have an address I can send to?

That is what they said about the Predator, wanted the latest flash, that is. My predator works FINE on the June 03 flash. The programmers just don't know exactly what they are building on without this limitation.
