I'm new, done a search, and nothing prevailed. I have a 97 Ram, 5.2, K&N drop filter, nothing else really special. When I bought the truck, the kid left me the Hypertech Max Energy tuner. I have messed with this thing for a year now, and cant make up my mind if I'm really gaining anything. I know I can go to Superchips and all that, but I'm just gonna stick with what I got. But I am wondering if anybody has any settings or can attain the charts and settings from these results?

what do you want to know? i dont have my book anymore. it went with the tuner when i sold it. i always thought there was a little performance gain. it was the only tuner i had that actually helped my mpg's a little. it is not the best one for performance though. superchips is a little better for performance. i have had the hyper max energy,jet chip stage 2, superchip 3815(which i still have in the closet), i now i use the sct with custom tunes via email. sct is the best for performance.

Thanks for your help. I actually found that tune chart, but I was actually looking for the actual settings to get those gains. Obviously Hypertech doesn't do much for these trucks like the others, but yeah I was just wondering if anybody had the settings. Btw, how much does that SCT cost? Mine didn't come with a book either.

But I'd say with those small increases I would say its not a big gain at all...
