Default Hypertech Keep or sell?

When i bought my car it came with hypertech. My question is if i should keep the tune in my car or get rid of it. Some say that with boltons and hypertech you may loose power.

Should i keep the hypertech tune in my car or take it out and sell it.


Thanks,
Matt

I would say it's not doing you any good since you have a M6. For A4's they are ok for adjusting shift points and firmness. They are also ok for adjusting for different size tires or different gears. That is about all they are good for. You should sell it and get a tune specific for your mods. The headers will benefit from a real tune.

Get rid of it. Take the tune out first.

De-tune your car and you can sell it to someone else.

Sell it or give to a newb. I put all the different tune options from my handheld into my stock computer. Copied them 1 at a time into my laptop using HpTuners software only to realize these handheld tunes are total crap.
