IMO, they're not worth it unless you can find a used one really cheap so if you don't pick up much power then you're only out 100 bucks or so. Actually, the only reason I'd probably get one is if I did a gear swap or to get rid of the governor(speed limiter), if I had one.

If you had a M6, then I would say skip it. However, with the A4, it really does change the way the care drives.

I dynoed stock and then with nothing but programming and picked up 14 RWHP on my 2001 Z28

 

so what, exactly, were the parameters that you changed to get the 14 rwhp increase?

 

And what's with being able to buy a used one, Hypertech says once you plug one in it "marries" itself to the car?

 

If the owner programs the car back to stock, like he/she should if they're selling it then it'll work on another car.

6400 rpms?
is that litle to much? do you hit the rev. limiter?
I got mine at 6200, i was worried about moving it more up...
should I move it up a bit?

 

When I owned my '96 Z28 M6, I re-programmed it with a Hypertech - it was worth it for me just to get the engine temperature down. That's the only thing I don't like about the camaros I've owned - they run too hot! I'm going to get one (and powerstat) for my '99 Z28 A4.

 

I never hit the rev limiter. As for setting it at 6400, I had it tuned on the dyno at Hypertech. They set it up like that and I never touched it.
