New to the site, need a little info please.... How goes it?
I have a 2000 GMC 1500 serria ext cab, 5.3L Vortech, all stock, except for exhuast, and my friend and i bought a Hypertech Power Programer III, used off ebay for $160.00, not bad, heres the trouble, i didnt realize that it could only be programed to one truck and a time, but man it made a difference!
He Has a 5.3L in a 2000 Chevy 1500 ext cab, we had some flooding, he was dumb and blew his engine, i have some great photos, but those are for another thread. Anyways, he got a brand new engine through statefarm, now it has about 900 miles on it.
Anyways, after his break-in, his truck was a little faster than mine, not much, most of it was because i have larger off-road tires, well we used the hypertech on his truck, now it is way faster, he can have a quad in the back, and run away from me.
So my question is, does anyone know of a way that we can get around only being able to use the hypertech on one truck at a time?
And if anyone could post up what their settings were for there hypertechs, that would be awesome.
Thanks again! and i really love the site, i think it will be very helpful.
Thanks,
Matt

When you make changes via HPP, it stores the stock configuration so it can be restored to that VIN # only. AFAIK there is no way to circumvent that. Hey, like Hypertechs' mucho prices or not, they are trying to make a living, I guess.
