Superchips Tunner vs Hypertech Programmer

[supernono]

I have 2001 chevy tahoe and I have installed a K&N FIPK and a Magna flow muffler. I thinking about buying a Superchips Tuner or the Hypertech Programmer III for my truck. Does anyone have any information about which is better or worse. Here are some links to the products... http://www.superchips.com/html/mainpage/index.htm , http://www.hypertech.com/three_stage.html, Thanks for your input. The goal is to increase the horsepower on my tahoe.

What do you have your settings at? Shift firmness and all that? I just got a Superchips Tuner in the mail and haven't hooked it up yet but am looking for peoples opinions on the setup...

I used the hypertech on my '99 Tahoe. Just remember that you'll be forced to use a higher grade of gasoline if you go high perf route. I think it advances the timing cuz I got some valve clatter as soon as I tried it out. After re-reading the instructions I found that I was supposed to fill the tank with premium before using the programmer. I switched to premium and the clatter went away.
