Hypertech Power Tuning Module
Hello all,
Does anyone have experience with a Hypertech Power tuning Module,
the type that plugs into the stock ecm then the ecm plugs into the module?
Is this worth the $250 plus for the unit, and does anyone have one installed with their 1993-94 ecm? and what kind of results have been noted.
I am interested, but I am hoping this is not a negative that could hurt my electronics, and ultimately the power train in general.
in other words is this just a pig in a bow tie, or an effective unit to slightly increase my stock performance, without doing major mods.
Thanks for the advice, Derek

get a real tune with your car on a dyno... don't waste your money
if your stock.. get some upgrades then tune on a dyno
92 - 93 is a Prom like 86 - 92

It will not tune you engine. It will change fan turn on points, I think shift point and something else. It is also deadicated to only one car per VIN # (VIN locked) at one time.

93 and 94 uses different ECM's. So you may want to check the specs before the purchase. Every Hypertech that I have seen for the 94 actually reprograms the PCM.

STL94LT1, please bear with me,I have a 94, are you saying it can reprogram my PCM if it is VIN locked to another vehicle just by hooking it up to my 94 to see if it is VIN locked or not?
Thanks...Peter

If it is VIN locked to another vehicle then no it won't work on your car, and yes you can hook it up to your vehicle without damage. Should just display that is is locked.
