In this day of 100 percent electronically managed automobiles, a whole new “do-it-yourself” electronic tuner segment of the high-performance automotive aftermarket has emerged. And moving right along in order to help perpetuate this growing trend is Superchips Inc., a long-standing leader in the high-performance automotive software industry.

The MAX MicroTuner is not one of those specially programmed aftermarket performance microchips from the late ‘80s that you plug into the port of your computer to enhance either performance and/or economy.  Likewise, the MAX MicroTuner isn’t a “plug and play” in-line performance program designed to fool your car’s engine management system into thinking that it is operating within certain parameters outside the existing factory engine management systems program.

Rather, Superchips’ newly introduced line of portable hand-held MAX MicroTuners are dedicated, “code-locked” electronic tuner tools which provides the end user with the ability to either troubleshoot and/or diagnose potential problems within your GM vehicle’s computer system using its “Diagnostic Trouble Code” (DTC) feature, as well as re-program your GM car or truck’s OBDII engine processor at the operator’s discretion using a number of custom-tuned and optimized performance, towing, or economy programs. And, since the line of MAX MicroTuners comes with its own data storage feature, you can save and reload the stock OE program files at will.
