Just got of the phone with Andy at Superchips and agreed to beta test their new Firefly system. I should have it in my hands by the end of the week. I'll be sure to let everyone know what I think. The only thing I'll have to compare it to is my Quad Xzillaraider and Commander, which is tough competition!

 

And what, may I ask is that?

 

You know, I really don't know!

What limited info I have says it has a touchscreen controller/monitor that can be adjusted on the fly, but I don't even know if its a programmer or a box. I'm hoping its a programmer because I don't want to have to remove my Quadzilla products.

 

I am Beta Testing also! This is a little about the SuperChips Firefly:

New technology Lazer Gauge with EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature) and Turbo Boost Display
Inline Power Module offering 3 “On-The-Fly” Power Settings, plus stock
EGT Probe for installation into exhaust manifold.

 

Wouldnt haveing the quad on their make the whole test worthless??

 

Probably. I don't mind swithing the power off of the Quad stuff, but I don't want to start pulling anything out of the truck. I just finished installing it for christs sake!

 

Yeah, he emailed me back about testing, but missed the point that our trucks a 98.5. not sure if thers gonna be a 98.5 testing, but im pretty sure if there is, we may be testing for him..

 

How did you guys become beta testers?

 

In another thread someone posted a link to a "sign up" sheet. Give a search and you'll probably find it. It wasn't posted too long ago.

 

Iker here is part of the e-mail I got about the years they wanted.

how much you guys having to pay to beta test it?

 

I'm pretty sure we're not allow to post that & don't want to get kicked off my first day! lol

 

I agreed to test it also. Oh boy, oh boy, a new toy. I just hope I can convince my wifey it's just a high tech gauge.

 

Yeah, a disclosure like that would be bad.

 

OK - the Lazer EGT gauge sounds scary to me!

Please let there be an actual probe in the manifold...
