Default Hypertech Power Programmers

Just wondering if any of you guys have used the Hypertech power programmers. Is it worth the money or should i just go ahead and get a nelson tune??

do yourself a favor and go w/ Nelson. You can only do so much on the hypertech and none of it will get you any kind of hp gains. Nelson fo sho

Another vote for Nelson's tune. Nelson Performance sponser link on the right>>>

The hyper tech is only good for changing shift points and increasing max rpms. While, nelson provides tuning for all your mods and will even tune for future mods.

Another Nelson fan here! You can't beat allens tunes plus lator on if you decide to get nitrous, supercharger ect. he can tune for that unlike a Hypertech . Good luck

To my understanding Nelson will send you a new PCM with the tune in it that you just plug in and go. I'm prolly gonna get one because for my truck I'll be paying about the same for a Nelson as a new hypercrap. Not to mention I can just send it back to him when I get my supercharger and get him to reprogram it.

Nelson will send you another PCM to swap with your own. Forget the Hypertech, they suck. I made the switch and regret wasting the money.

I don't have Nelsons tune, but stay away from Hypertech. I actually slowed down with it. Get a custom tune for sure.
