I know someone with a Duratec taurus that has a superchip and the shift is incredibly hard. I've also heard that on those cars, they help in damaging transmissions. Is the same true for the contours? I just spent some ridiculous cash on a new trans so I don't want to damage it but I do want to get rid of the rev and top speed limiters as well as boost performance. Which chip would be better (diablo or superchip)? and should I make the trip to their tuning facilities in Fl? If so does anyone know how much a custom burned chip will cost? Thanks alot

Ok,,i just got my chip today,,im in san diego, ca.From what they told me, if you need a custom burn it was $125 on top of the $265 for the chip. Thats the price i was told at JBA here and superchip when i called them. THey do their own burns but they get the files from the main office in FL. Performance wise i have only noticed a little difference in power. My rev limiter is gone but i still govern at 115mph, they said they were gonna research that and would probably have top redo my chip. PM me if you wanna know the results. I dont know much about the diablo chip. I got the superchip from recommendations from fellow CEG'ers.


I drive a Ford, what else do you need to know??

What was your PCM code?
I have a 98.
What were the results?
What did you tell them to program for? Intake,exhaust, etc.

Try Kurtz Kustomz Motorsports. They can custom burn superchips and may be cheaper.
