I purchased a Hypertech Programmer on Ebay for $180.
I flash my computer yesterday and did the following:
1. Increased the timing.
2. Increased the speed allowance.
3. Increased the rev limiter.

Car pulls really nice!
I race my cousins Z06 off the line and only fell back 1/2 car length for a short
1/8 mile race. He didn't look to happy about it, but I'm sure he wasn't pushing too hard. A Z06 should just smoke me!
Smoother acceleration and feels like more torque in the top end.
Can't wait to use it when I get my 4.10's

Jeez guys.
I'll get some pics for you tomorrow.
My buddy is over and has a digital camera.
Why would I lie about my mods anyway?
Most people here have much better ones. (Performance wise anyway)

You guys are on fire
Must be Xmas spirit.
I think new Hypertech goes around 350$. Got mine on Ebay for 200$.
As for timing, you dont know how much you advance it, it s include in the option Power Tuning.
I even think Hypertech wont give you the info for advance timing

Why did you increase RPM limiter????

Well....appearance mods got to count for something.
When I get more performance mods I'll probably unlist some.
But for now it's all I got.
