Default Which programmer

What are the differences, pros, and cons between the super chips flashpaq, hypertech max energy, and others I am not aware of. I am definitely getting a programmer in the next month but want to know the differences.

Don't have any personal experience but, I am very curious as to what peeps say. I have been looking at getting the Superchips trail dash system.

I only have experience with Superchips. I have a Vivid and am very happy with it and the features. I definitely recommend it

I've got the Hypertech and i'm really happy with it, I wouldn't be able to go back to stock. The JK is much peppier from a stop now and it removed the TPMS on the dash

I have the bullydog gt. You can adjust just about everything. The only down side is you have to own a pc to update it. MAC CPU's hate it.

The same is true for the Superchips Flashpaq. I bought a used one and had some issues that were neither the sellers, nor my fault. I called Superchips up and they were extremely helpful and patient. I had a very good experience with them, and would highly recommend them.
