A little video I made

I got me a new cell phone with HD video recording, so I did a video for any potential superchips customers

If you want to see real boost, get a real tune, like HPTuners!!

Done and done. Still, I have not tried Superchips so it seems like it would be just fine for a no-fuss upgrade at its price point. It would help if the other gauges could be seen so it would show what kind of acceleration you get for the boost.

Its the best upgrade I've done to any car Ive owned...

and JoeR, If I were to get a real tune, I cant imagine how much better it could be. considering the whole different animal ive experienced with the superchips prgrammer..I've though about trifecta too...so we will see what the future holds...but from what Ive seen on the forum, the more boost people have, the more problems they run into. It has been as high as 22-23 psi with the right conditions, I assume 90+ degrees and high humidity keeps it a shade under 20psi.

Fun stuff. I wish the vid was longer. If you search you can find my hoon thread if you want to see a similar video using HPTuners tuning for your comparison. Mine is a 20mph to whatever numbers hide behind my steering wheel. I look forward to seeing more videos from you. If you are happy with your tune, that's all that matters.

there will be more videos...im just starting to fool around with the new phone and windows movie maker

and it was hard to tell if it was noticeably faster in that video...ill have to film one myself. but you did hit 23 psi at 71 degrees...i only hit that if its really cold

Hubby put his up to 30 PSI before it went to limp mode a few times on the old build with HPTuners....
