    I have a 2009 with a supercharger, intake and exhaust. From what I have read you guys are saying that this is definitely a worthwhile purchase as long as I can find a tuning shop?

    I think it's worth it, it works really good to correct over lean, over rich and correct for different intakes and exhausts....
    You have to have something unless your truck is stock....
    I even slightly changed my tune for 33s and it almost runs the same as 32s...
    About our best choice for a piggy back right now, that I know of....

    We still need a reliable way to re-flash and stand alones are a lot of work...
    Not sure how well it works with a supercharger but they are linear so it should be easy to make good maps...
    But it will run much than without it.....

    Ultimately you need to have a idea how to tune unless you have good shop close by...
    Just start with 0 maps and get a F/A meter and make small changes at a time 1 section at a time...
    14/1 for mpg and cruising about 12/1 max power....
    An ok tune is better than no tune...

    Also the maf cal is a much cheaper way to control just the fuel (200 vs 1000) and they can send you a fairly good map to start with...

    The unichip also adjust the timing, maybe only 6-7 degrees on supercharged engine..
    But it also has up to 5 maps, is much faster to tune, more precise control and plug and play...

    I wonder if there is anybody in or around Denver that knows how to tune one of these things. I don't even have a laptop haha

    And what is a F/A meter?
