Default Re: Hypertech Programmer

What kinds of real world measured gains are you guys seeing with reprogramming?

I campaigned a bracket car for a few years so I'm used to seeing results measured in 1/4 mile times and have a good idea what it takes to see real improvement.

Dyno HP ratings and wheel measured HP ratings are entirely different things, markerters like to tout a 32 hp increase but it's only at a specific point on the output curve. Real world measured at the rear wheels is more like 7 hp.

Has anyone done 1/4 mile times in an H2 before and after programming? Has anyone logged H2 mileage before and after?

I'm not knocking the programmers but I wonder how much performance gain is psychological and what can be measured?
