Use my old SuperChip on the new truck?
I have a SuperChip Micro Tuner that is Vin locked to my old truck (01 F250 5.4). I traded in that truck for a 04 V10. Can I get the programmer reset to work with the new truck?

No, the 04 Microtuner is a different model. Your microtuner can only be used on 1997-2003 trucks. Superchips charges $200 to unlock it so its a paper-weight at this point.

Ken, If I was to sell the unit, would the buyer be able to send it SuperChip and have it reset?

Thanks, Steve

Yes, but it will cost them $200 to do it.

Any worthwhile gain from re-burning a chip after a larger TB?
