Well, my Hypertech Max Energy is now on. I installed the Stage I for about 5 hours, but didn't see a huge difference. Stage I is only +50HP, anyway. I was going to hold off on Stage II until after my 4" MBRP was installed, but.... what fun would THAT be. So, after 5 hours of Stage I the truck was set back to stock and then Stage II. (Not sure if setting it back to stock first was neccasary, but that's what I did.) Stage II was a wickedly HUGE difference at +113HP. I'm not going to Stage III until after my MBRP and pyro are installed, I promise. It's just so hard not to put the cool stuff in as soon as you get it, that's all! After the MBRP and pyro, I'm going to install the +176HP Stage III, but will not be towing with it when the time presents itself. After running it really hard through the 6-speed, mashing it and seeing what it would do (to include embarassing a 'Vet on the way home), I have yet to see an increase in black smoke. Which, for me, is perfect as I'm not a big fan of having unburned fuel roll out of my exhaust, anyway! For the '05-'07 Cummins, the Hypertech seems to have the best numbers I've seen. Persoannly, I can concur on the power increase. Why are there no dyno's within the Alaskan Interior?
