HPP3 is it worth it?
HPP3 is it worth it? I am about to invest in a hyper tech programmer for my 00 Z28 and was wondering if it was worth the money. what exactly is its use other than the cooling fan . is it worth it so should i use the money to buy something else.

Re: HPP3 is it worth it? if you're only going to use it for the fans buy an SLP fan switch and be set (turn it on while racing/at the track)
I had an HPP3 before the predator and LS1 edit were out and used it for shift point adjustments and fans... sold it a while ago and got LS1 Edit...
If I had to do it over now I'd buy LS1 Edit right away (assuming you have a laptop) or I'd probably go w/a Predator unit as it does more
but just for fans just buy the switch and save some money

Re: HPP3 is it worth it? I've had good results with the HPP3 in my '00 Z28 A4 (shift points and fan settings only/no Power Tuning...and I would only even consider it for an A4, never an M6) but I would never buy it new (I had too because there weren't any available used at the time).
You can find good deals on used ones now so it wouldn't be a total waste if you went that route but as stated above the Predator or FAR better yet, LS1 Edit, is the better choice.
