Proably wont be much if any difference. You might like the one ya got better... Try it out and see which one ya like. And.... It all depends on how cheap dirt is???? LOL

i've heard form several mechanics that hypertechs have been known to make one run too lean and burn holes in pistons, and that they werent made as good. but idk. thats what people tell me. i'd rather have superchip i think, but never had hypertech
