Hypertech programmers year specific?
 

Sorry, had to post. I searched abit, to no avail... Was wondering if anyone could tell me whether or not the Hypertech Power Prgrammer III is year specific? I came across a guy that offered to sell me his for $50. But his truck is an 02 5spd, and mine is a 99 auto. $50 is not alot, and I could probably turn around and sell it for the same amount if it didn't work, but I figured I'd try and save myself the trouble. I did check the website, and found nothing too helpful. Maybe someone has some experience with this situation?

Sorry not familiar with the hypertech as far as years but I'm sure some one here is:U::pca1:

they are not year specific. I went to their website and looked up 99 ram 2500 and part number is 5009 then looked up 02 ram 2500 and part number is 5009. So it should work 98.5-02

yea i have one for mine.... 99 24v .... it is basically for 98.5 to the 02's like like he said. and thats the right part# as well... im selling mine at the moment also. though im asking 100 obo. figured still a good deal, think u can get it for 250 brand new. but this works like a brand new one. lol

how much power is that good for Jaytric9

Thanks for the expeditious replies, guys. And from what I've seen, the hypertech is adjustable up to 60 hp or so. It'll be my first real power mod, and I'll be picking it up next month :rocking:

I would upgrade the fuel system before anything and add fuel pressure gauge it's the only way to keep your truck alive.

Way ahead of ya. Got a FP gauge goin in next week. If the pressure's no good, I'll act accordingly before I use the tuner. Trucks been parked for a few weeks anyway.

hmmm .... believe its only 50hp ... and 137 ft lbs. thats what the manual and website say. not sure if its any different for trucks that are modified. or if that rule only applies to chips. couldnt tell ya. think when i sell it ill go smarty or superchips.
