Superchips Cortex...why? I know it works and is pretty easy to use. Granted, I haven't used any other programmer...

...you're in the right forum for good advice though. I'm sure others will chime in who have more experience with these units than me.

Thanx! I figured I would ask the question in the "technical and performance" side of the forum, thinking maybe I'll get more info. Thanx. Do you use 93 octane? The only reason I ask is my mechanic which is a hummer mech said to only use 87 octane. I don't know why, maybe because stock tune? I know the programmer changes all that and will ask if you want to use regular or premium. Your thoughts? What do you think or know about hypertech?

Thanx, Eddie

Wink Re: Suggestions for a power programmer

i have been using a hypertech on my 06 since new on 87 octane and it takes away the response lag, it gives the pep it needed.
i have ran it on the 93 octane tune and it gives it more power with no side affects. since i do live in ca and there is only 91 octane here & i have to add a can of lucas octane booster to the tank to up my octane to 93 if not you will get pinging at wide up throttle. lucas octane booster is the only one that i have used the works but it is around $10 a bottle.
