My friend has a 07 and wants to get a chip for better mileage and a little more power.He does not want to put an exhaust or intake just the chip.Thanks Chris
Thanks guys,but i think he wants a shift on the fly because he doesent want to reflash when he has to tow.How is hypertech any good?? Thanks Chris
I've heard of some big problems with on the fly chips...... One of the big things is that the transmission has problems with them. It takes all of 1 minute to reflash the truck. While you're hookin' up, start the reflash, by the time the trailer is hooked up and ready to go, the programmer will already be done.........
thats not bad,i thought it was like 15min or so to reflash.
No, not at all. The first time you do it, it takes a little longer (maybe 5 mins) b/c it has to upload you're stock file then put the new one in, but other than that it takes a min

I would reccomend that your friend give Matt at Spartan Diesel Tech a call He is one of the 6.0 wizzard's and I am sure he can steer your friend right. Spartan is a sponsor and there is a link to the left of the screen to get the phone number.

You can stack a switch on the fly module with Custom tuning for the transmission only. You have to tell the SCT vendor what you want. You cannot stack a combination that modifies the engine.
I have a hypertech flash tuner.. and liked it alot.. I got a good deal on a edge juce platnum so i put it in.. 2 weeks latter i am trying to find time to take the juice out to put my hypertech back in.. I just dont like the juice the trany just dose not seam right eather shifts to hard or soft...
As for my hypertech tune I did not think it was slow at all.. but the only other thing i have driven is the edge.. it just felt like it had more power with the hypertech it coul dhave ben becase the trany was shifting better..
Hypertech says you can tow on there high setting (120 somthing HP).. with out woring about EGT's geting to high on stock exhaust .. dose any one know how they tune that... what did they have to give up?
