I have a predator tuner on my 03 set at 5800 rpm gear shifts in every gear.

I have a feeling that shifts at this rpm level may be pointless and a bit to high BUT I have yet to hear or see any BETTER alternatives.

I have yet to take my truck to the track with these settings (or my predator/headers) and plan to do so on the 11th. Hopefully I will have some time to try making runs with various shift points to see what works best.

After looking at my dyno charts it is clear that the engine's power starts to drop off after 5580 rpms.

If anyone has some good shift point suggestions for my truck, other than 5800 rpm gear shifts in every gear, then please let me know

I installed the Hypertech PPIII in my 1997 extended cab 5.7L. Just got the chance to run it last night. My first run I fu*ing went through 2 gears at the line because i punched it too hard. 2nd run i hooked up good and took a mustang gt at the 1/8 mile but he got me near the end of the 1/4 mile.

Before HPPIII

16.3@80mph

After HPPIII

15.9@83mph

Just read all these posts. Pretty interesting numbers you guys got.

I have a 98 K-1500 with the 5.7 and auto.

Would ya recomend the hypertech to a guy who wheels? Think it would be worth it to get that extra little power to spin bigger tires and what not????

Also I've read you can input the octane you will be running, does this mean there are different programs or is there either a 87 octane and 93 octane program?

Does the 87 octane program really do anything??

I'm real interested because of the ability to adjust for tire/gear ratios.

Thanks!!!

Anyone willing to offer up HPP3 shift point, rev limiter, and top speed values for an all-stock NBS Denali (specifically, an '04 if possible)?

Thanks!

It's been a LONG time since I have posted on here. I have a 1996 reg swb with the 5.7l 350. I used to have the HPP+, 3.73's with an Eaton, Air-raid intake, T.B.S., ASP pullies, Flowmaster mufflers, and a 160* stat. The best it ran was a 9.39 @ 72.xx mph with a 2.03 60 ft.(averaged about a 9.40-9.45-in the 1/8th). I dyno'd it about a year ago and it put down 226 hp and 315 ft/lb's.
I have since taken everything off of it, cause I was gonna sell, it, but I tihnk I might have some new plans in mind. Ill keep yall posted.

I just picked up an 02 Avalanche and it's stock right now.. but I'm lookin to invest some $$$ into it.. I like the ability to be able to change the computer around though... has anyone noticed severe decrease in fuel economy with one of these? The way I drive my Av I don't get the greatest gas mileage as is.
02 Avalanche, Stock for now

I just got a HPPIII for my 2001 5.3 1500k 4x4 truck. But ive beening having a little bit of a transmission problem shifting from 1st to 2nd. Right now i have the shift point for 1st at +2. At this point it shifts just fine. But if i moved it to +3 it sounds and feels like it shifts alot harder on the transmisson..Is that normal? Also ive tried it puting it higher then a 3 and it wont even shift to 2nd it like skips over and over and i know that cant be good for it. So as of right now i have it at +2 but i liked +3 better but i dont know if its bad for the tranny or not.

Also i have Shift frimness on too if that matters at all about this.
