Hey guys, So I found two good superchips online for fairly good prices, but I don't know which one to get.
One is a Cortex 3950 for $150
Another is a Flashpaq 3865 for $250

I know the flashpaq is the one to get, but the cortex is a good price. Does it do the same thing? I know i wont get the transmission tuning, and I don't really care. Can someone help?

I wouldn't skip out on the trans tuning, it makes a big difference being able to change your shift points and dropping the tq management.

I have the cortex, I love it with no complaints. The trans tuning is kinda tricky but once you get it figured out you'll be glad you got it

Cortex for the price. Same functions as the 3865 but has a few additional features. Downfall is your year which has very limited shift point options.

Yea my 03 won't ever support trans tuning, unless I can find a good 05 harness and computer, then sky's the limit.

Thanks for the info, I'm going to talk to the guy to see if he'll trade for something, or come down on price.

Find me a 3815 for $150 and I'll be all over it. It's just the cortex is in town, and he may trade for some things I got. It's just convenient, plus I really don't want to spend any money online.
