Noob ? - HP from HP Tuners This being my first post, I figured I make a good one...
I was looking at the HP Tuners web-site and I noticed (or overlooked) that the site didn't have any hp or tq #'s. I know these #'s vary by application, but what kind of #'s on average could one expect from a decent tune? Oh say on a '00 1/2t 5.3 truck? I'm just curious.
This site rocks!

HP tuners is just buying access to the computer, you are not buying any knowledge in how to tune, no base files, and no horsepower increase.
You simply get a way to read the file, modify it, reflash the computer, and a datalogger that allows you to gather some data about how the car is running.
On a good tune, on a non premium fuel vehicle, you can probaly see 7-10 by going with premium fuel, and increased timing on most vehicles, some more power, some less, depending on how agressive the stock timing tables are.
