I already have a Hypertech programmer.
I was thinking of selling it and getting a Predator instead.
Or, should I just sell the Hypertech, get a speedcal and keep the money?
I'm not sure how much these programmers really help anyway.

Well I like how the Predator allows you to interpret codes and gives real time info you can display on your laptop, and download custom tunes... Not sure if others do that.

it really depends on what you want to do and what future mods you're going to make to your car? if you just wanna fix your speedo and nothing else, then a speedcal always works. but if you want custome tunes now and in the future there's nothing wrong with going with a predator or an sct xcal2.

Would I see better gains with a predator than the hypertech?

I haven't posted on here in quite sometime, but posts haven't changed a whole lot.

I'm sure you can do a search and find performance gains.

However, you probably won't find much. As I remember none of the programmers really offered much performance on the GTs.

Now if you had a diesel, they are worth it....with gains of 100+hp 250+tq common.
