The adjustable parameters, such as fuel ratio, injector flow rates, spark timing and automatic transmission acceleration can be selectively modified during the tuning process.

Step 4

Turn off the ignition switch and press the ">" key on the keypad after the "Turn Ignition Off" message prompt to start the initialization of the programmer memory.

Step 5

Turn on the ignition switch after the "Turn Ignition On Do Not Start Eng." message appears.

Step 6

Press the ">" key after the "Ready to Return to Stock" and "Do Not Turn Off the Ignition!!!" messages to reset the Superchips MicroTuner programmer to the preloaded stock program.
