Which programmer?
My uncle has installed 285/75 R16's in his 2003 Crew cab with the Duramax/Allison combo. Since then he has lost power and mileage(part of that is due that they didn't reprogram his computer for the larger tires). He is getting around 13-16, but even new, it never got over 17 unloaded on the interstate. Which programmer would give him back the power he has lost and a little more and increase mileage slightly?

Edge Juice if he wants alot of power with some economy, or Preditor which is alot cheaper and makes simular gains. The preditor has less fun options like selecting your level on the fly, but it can add I believe 125hp and 200+tq.
Also if he wants milage he should look into a 4" turbo back and intake. The freer they breath the better they work, and the better milage they get. Warpspeedperformance has a 4" turbo back kit for $260. Pretty cheap and sounds nice!

we've had great success with selling the hypertech units at work for the duramax. they don't seem to gain much on anything else, but on the duramax they gain about 2-4 mpg and are a very noticable power gain on top of it.

I have had a Predator on all 3 of my Duramax trucks (2 LB7's and 1 LLY). My 3/4 ton 4x4 ext cab ran an 8.80 in the 1/8 with just the Predator and no muffler. Shoot me a pm if you are interested in one. There are alot of other options most all the programmers make enough power to put the Alli into limp mod so be careful if yours is stock.

Is the hypertech a multistage programmer, meaning does it have different HP settings?
Also, I know this is the ,but does anyone know how to get more power of a DT466 cat diesel. I have one in my 2000 International and it is only rated at 190 HP and 485 ft lbs. Other ones are rated at up to 230/615.

Isn't the DT466 an international motor?

I had the Hypertech, it's great for people that don't have much $$$ & don't need crazy power. I now have a Edge & like it for what it is, can't go wrong with the tranny protection & gauges on the attitude.
