Customer Review :
I've use other types of engine programers : Hypertech 32000 Max Energy Power Programmer for 1996-2007 GM Gas Truck/SUV
HT product used 99 chevy suburban 5.7 stock 201843 miles. 10w 30 syn oil acdelco plugs gap settings not at .60... The features that you can change are as followed on aboved tested; the governor, check engine codes, tire spedo correction, and shift firmness or attitude which I believe is what is really important for towing. It actually holds it shift value. It minimized the shift unsureness.. but with high mileage I may need attention to transmission. Fuel mpg went up from 13 to about 15.9 mpg. on real-life "spirited" driving It performs well using 89 or 93.It did run or at least the engine sounded a little different. I believe that new 02 sensors, cat, and a throttle body spacer should bump it up a tad bit more.I haven't tried out the governor to safely test its trueness even tho i know that stock settings have an abuse timer going pass 100 mph back down to 94mph
The HT on other models alows you to do a little bit more like actually dial in shift firmness. Also, it was platform specific with the sticker showing gmc Chevy equivalent.... now i haven't tried it on other vehicles such as dodge or ford to see if it would read or if the device would negotiate with the pcm/ecu but other then maybe reading DTC's... The HT is very easy to use. not pretty as the COBB access port but not as hard to use as a Tactrix cable ; o ) over all its good.. but price wise 250 would be a fair price for current technology... just personal opinion.....Also to help you figure out if this is worth the purchase.. say fuel is 3.65 p/gal you get 13 mpg now but use this and get 17mpg or so .. it should pay for it self if you drive over 4000k a month.....This is my my honest consumer review and a few question I would have before buying a tool such as a brick : o ) with any machine. make sure its running ready. I only give it a 4 out of 5 b/c if my application were newer or diesel I'm sure it would be a 5

Max Energy Tuning extracts every bit of energy possible out of every molecule of fuel giving you more miles at part-throttle and more power at wide-open throttle. With the additional power and optimized transmission functions, drivers use less fuel to accelerate and maintain cruising speeds without the torque converter un-locking and transmission down-shifting to a lower gear. The results are maximum power and fuel mileage. For vehicles that come from the factory capable of using regular octane fuel, two (2) optimized tuning programs are provided: one for premium, and the other for regular. In most cases, Hypertech’s exclusive Power Tuning for regular octane provides excellent power gains, almost as much power as premium octane. Only one (1) Power Tuning program is provided for vehicles that were designed from the factory to use only premium fuel..../ Hypertech 32000 Max Energy Power Programmer for 1996-2007 GM Gas Truck/SUV / Chevy Tahoe Accessories
