Default programmer help

I've been reading and looking on the forum about programmers. I have a 98 auto vert and the only programmer i've found 4 my car is the Hypert Prog 3. In reading, looks like know 1 likes this programmer 2much. So, what's another way to tune or program the 98. NOT GOING INTO MOTOR. Just want a few extra HP'S. MY MODS 2DATE: K&N AIR FILTER/CORSA TOURING EXH--NO X PIPE/GETTING 342 gears installed.

Let me know when the tuner is ready. I still have my stock 273 gears. The installer found out you can't install 342 gears in a 273 carrier/that sux's.

Dyno-Tech (a Forum vendor) can do 3 series gears in a 2.73 case.

"Superchips" makes a tuner for 97-98. So far I am happy with mine.
