Rising fuel costs

"I own a 2005 Dodge 3500 diesel. I purchased a diesel for personal use and as a towing vehicle because diesel fuel has always been the least expensive traditional fuel for a truck engine. Since the price of diesel fuel has surpassed the most expensive premiums, I am looking for ways to help offset the unreasonable cost. After reviewing several different tuning programmers I choose the Max Energy based on cost and simplicity. I am not a power, speed enthusiast; all I was looking for was something to make my engine run as efficiently as possible. I had never tried anything like this before and was concerned about trying anything so radical. After receiving my Max Energy I read the instruction manual several times and found it very straight forward so I decided it was time to go ahead. Programming is very easy if you follow the screen prompts, it seems almost impossible to make a mistake. I have only had the new program in for a short time and have tried two different stages. I feel it’s too soon to tell how much it will help but I have noticed that on the interstate at 70 mph I have dropped at least 100 RPM’s and shifting seems smoother. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. I found AutoAnthing and Hypertech very helpfull."

"I used my hypertech max energy programmer on my recent trip to TX from NH pulling my three horse trailer with LQ and appear to have increased mileage to 11.8 from 9.0. Have not confirmed this with filling of tank but if true it will pay for itself pretty quickly. I did have a problem with overheating but do not think it is related to the hypertech. All in all worth the price. I was not looking for extra power just mileage but the extra power is useful"

"The perfomance that was added to my pickup after the programmer was installed was minimal. I attribute this to the age of my GMC. I believe there are more configurations / options on the late model pickups. I do like the fact that I can use the programmer again (downloading new software) if I purchase a newer pickup."

Good product

"Overall, I am satisfied. However, I am a novice at modifications, so adjusting the shift points was a bit tricky. I did not get the real fuel milage gains that I thought I would get. But, I did get some improvement with power gains. I would say that this product combined with other power gaining products would be great. I am satisfied with the product and I am glad that I got it. I look forward to its proformance when I continue to modify the truck."

"The hypertech installed very easily, the pros: noticed increase in towing power and shift point & firmness. the cons: have not noticed an increase in fuel economy while towing or not towing. Also i wish it came with 3 save options for towing,offroad and highway.Chevy/Gm owners note: make sure you remove the fuse for the onstar system each time you make changes to your vehicles computer through this type of software. performance per dollar could have been better but over all happy with the product."

"I have a 98 z28 with 224 comp cam, upgraded valve train, headers, true dual exhaust cut off before the rear axle, 3400 stall, KN+Lid, 8MM wires, port&polish throttle body and transmission valves. As you can see my car is a beast. There is two program modes on this thing which I love. Non-rpg and RPG fuel settings. In other words, NON-rpg your car stinks and sucks gas, RPG you can't smell anything and it barely uses gas. I LOVE IT!!!! It also fixed my tire size calibration because I'm using the new z06 rims/tire combo. Bigger than stock, my speedo was thrown off by 7 mph, and my transmission was shuttering. Not any more! This little miracle is fun to use too! It takes exactly 5 minutes to program (I timed it) and you will need to use it over and over again until you get the right setting for your vehicle. It also reads Diagnositc codes and clears them. A great tool at a great price! Autoanything was very helpful too! I couldn't find the programmer for my vehicle year, 98, so I called and talked to the staff. He was knowledgeable, and he actually drove a F body as well. I felt like I was at home! A++++++ Autoanything, ILL BE BACK!!!!!"

"I am not mechanical but it was easy to load. Took approximately 20 min. start to finish. Presently sloppy gear shifting is gone. I brought our 32' fiver home from the shop (50 mi). It merged into traffic smoothly after stopping at a dead stop and into traffic at 60mph. It had extra power to pass at 60 before I wouldn't have tried it. MPG is still a question as I am still on my first tank of fuel."

"I have an 07 F150 with the 5.4L Triton V8. The shifts had a hesitation and the best mileage I got was 16.5 mpg. The performance was less than I wanted from this motor. After installing the Max Energy Programmer, the shifts were firm and there was alot more power on tap. As an added bonus my mileage went up to 18+ mpg. And this was with the regulare fuel setting. I towed my horse trailor up hill with no problem. Great product, easy installation and outstanding performance."

"My pickup ran poorly since its last visit to the dealers. It needed something done right away. Installed Max Energy power program for 92 octane and my towing mileage went from 6.7 to 9.1 miles per gallon. At 87 octane, I went from 14 to 18 miles per gallon. With these results, I'm sold on Hypertech."
