Default '02, 6sp. will I benefit from a programmer III?

Or should I take the stock unit out and have it reprogrammed?

do LS-1 edit. Even if you only raise the rev limit, it will be more effective than the Hypertech. In my opinion, Hypertech gets its name because of the "hype".

HPP3's are only good for the A4 guys because they can raise their shift points and firm up the shifts. Only good benefit I got out of it was where the fans turned on sooner for the cooler thermostat I had in the TA. Go for LS1Edit or the Diablo.
