I'm sure this post might have been started already so I apologize if it was. I have an 05 Tahoe. I put on 20" wheels and 285/50/20 tires. I asked my service guy what can I do to improve my mileage. He said to install a CAI, reprogram the chip and install a new exhaust. So I have done the first two things. My question is if anyone else has used the Hypertech Programmer 3 for their 05 how did you set it up? The only thing I changed was the tire height. I haven't seen a real change in mileage.
Thanks

do you already have the Hypertech?

 

[tahoeman]

yes I already have it and I did reprogram the chip.

thee isn't 'too much' you can do, these are just generally large vehicles with smaller motors than we should have. The Hypertech is a decent programmer, but before you spent the money, I would have looked into a custom tune, such as Blackbear, Nelson,etc...

 

[tahoeman]

can you post the url for those sites?
thanks

Justin, and Jennabear is on this site, with helpful info about their tunes. I have done a TON of reading, and I will get Blackbear tuning on mine.

I guess it would be the cost. Cheaper than the Hypertech? Or more with better results? Still not sure what this is I did read from the link. How can I get in touch with Just in to get more info?
