Hey all. Does anyone use a Hypertech programer or Superchips for that matterand if so do you like it and does it work well? Thanks

 

I am running a Superchips 3715. I noticed a huge difference from the moment I programmed it in. I get better throttle response. I have more power. Ido not feel as if I am hammered down on the throttle leaving a stop. This thing has worked great on three different trucks. Got it off E-bay for a little less than half the price of a new one. It has different power settings. Use can set it up for towing, low octane, and high octane. You can even set new tire size. The only time I tried that I got an abs light that I could not reset. Had to take it to the dealer and they said it was a result of the programmer. I have not tried it since.

 

Dealership probably told you a line because they didn't want to dig in and fix the real problem.

There was a problem with the either the clockspring on thesetrucks causing that ABS light issue, or a bad wiring harness that rubbed and shorted, I cant remember which, but I had it repaired on mine under a recall.If you believe it to be a superchips defect, call them and ask for an updated flash of your programmer and see if that doesn't resolve it.

 

The dealership reset the ABS and have not had a problem since. I did call superchips and they claim to have no complaints on this issue. Said they would look into it and call me back, have yet to do it four months later. Not to worried I dont need the tire adjustment part anyway.

 

yah Ive got a suppership, but tryed both and they both work good...but the guys with hypertech will tell u thow same thing...

if you want one get witch ever you can find cheaper, they both really just do the same thing

 

Dont wanna thread jack but I was wondering how much of a difference there is from running the 87 setting to the 93 octane setting on the hypertech.I havent tried it yet but was just wondering.

 

with my surerchip i noticed quite abit more improvement om 93 than 87 but im too cheep to buy 93 all the time so i leave it set on 87

 

I just ordered mine. Wahooo!! I'm going to try it on premium and see if I get better mileage or not. That is if I can keep my foot out of it.

 

LOL, Ryan, you really need to work on that spelling, buddy.

 

Well he spelled it differently in this post too .But thats ok,we're here to learn about trucks,not spelling.
