I would jump all over this, but once its done its done. I think I am going to just keep holding out for the Hypertech powerprogrammer. It does all the stuff their upgrade does, but you can ALWAYS revert back to OEM programming, and optize your programming on the fly for different conditions, and fuels...

unless Im missing something...

Yeah, I went to C-Ya'* website and it looks promising. I just wonder if they can deliver. The price seems good. I have tried to email them three times and they get bounced because C-Ya'* email is full.

What is the web address for DHP? I want to check them out and see what they can do and for how much.

Also, I think I am gonna get me some Silverstars this weekend. Advance Auto is having a "Buy one, get one half-off" sale.

Later

Dhp has no website but you can get one through http://www.intense-racing.com/

Congrats on the new ride. You'll love the 3.4, and get a modular system. For intake, try to get a full CAI box, like thrasher ( I have one too), or MSP box, SLP box, of Wiizarid.

For Cya racing, I don't think they've done any ssei'* yet, personally I'm getting a custom DHP. I live local to DHP and Mike Breyer is also a programmer and I've been talking with him setting up a custom tune for me on the dyno.

The hypertech programmer, if it ever comes out could be good, only heard good things about those, mostly F-bodies though. but DHP will up grade your programming if need be. I plan on going in March/april for my DHP after rockers and headers are on. You might even be able to get my programming guys.

I can dig up mikes email if needed.

Also Cya is makes LSD'* they are pretty reputable too, I'm getting one as well. Also happens to be local, gives deals on locals.

Sometimes it'* good to live in Chicago.

Welcome to the club!

TaylorD, I have been to Chicago. I love it there! Best place to party. Ever been to the Wiener'* Circle???

Looks like I am gonna try DHP for the chip. Might be a few more months though. Need to raise the $$$.

DHP can do ANYTHING you'll need. Manual tranny conversion, internal upgrades, new superchargers, you name it.

If you want a slap in solution Jet would be the best. Avoid superchips though.

Not quite. For the Bonnevilles DHP can not shut off specific codes (such as those from a cam). They CAN shut off ALL codes so you dont get a light with cams or heavier mods, but shutting off ALL codes makes it very hard to diagnose other problems. Just an FYI. Looks like I'll be doing my chip soon (next month?) as i think that is the cause of my KR and upper MPH lagging....I'll just get it reburned when I do the cam and headers. Not that I need to be doing 130 anyway...but its always nice to have it available...for those pesky imports...
