Default Computer Tune Question

I have a hypertech tuner and I just realized that my rev limiter is set too low. A year ago I had a speed shop delete the egr or air codes from my computer. My question is can I use my hypertech to change my rev limiter without it screwing up the deleted codes, making them reappear again.

I haven't delt with Hypertech since when they first came out, Not really sure about picking individual parameters, Possible that if you can just adjust one item it will upload what ever tune is in the Hypertech...

Well Like I say I am not sure about the Hypertechs, I know that some handheld programmers do have the ability to delete codes...

Your rev limiter should be the factory stock 6200. If you think it's low because you are watching your tach, that's not a good indicator.

I know that I set it at 6000 with my hypertech because at the time I was trying to baby the car

With a mail order I would think that the mail order you get from them would include the air and egr delete codes if you specify that you want them gone. I would think.
