Default Poll: Hypertech Power Programmer....peformance gains?

Thinking about picking up a used power programmer from someone for $200. Is it worth it or no?

Also, how many of you with the programmers also have other mods? (ie intake/exhaust, etc)

I'm surprised no one else has posted :confused:

This has always been a product that people have an opinion on.

Ok,
I have it. Got it for rear gear change and tire size change etc. I ran with and without the performance program and the car feels better with the programming. That is completly subjective. Next dyno day I will run with and without and see what the dyno says, but there again its on the dyno. As Mackey will point out the track answers the real questions, and I have not had the time for that yet.

My bottom line if I didnt need it for the other corrections I could live without it and wait to get a real dyno tune. However thats not an option around here. So I,m pleased with it
