AEV ProCal (and Superchips Flashcal) is a 'programmer'. Not a tuner. It will adjust the gear ratio and set the tire size, as well as a few other nifty things. It does not change the tune or add hp/torque. The flashcal is internet upgradeable to a flashpaq tuner, if you decide at some later time to try the tunes. The procal has no screen, just dipswitches, and can not be turned into a tuner. (for a personal opinion - Programmers: I like the procal much better than the flashcal, mainly due to issues with the products and the piss poor tech support at superchips. And for tuners: I was never impressed with the performance gains from the canned tunes I tried on either the superchips flashpaq or diablosport intune. Many people think the tunes are great, just wasn't my experience with either product...)

Yeah, it can get confusing with the various options. And Hypertechs decision to call theirs a programmer doesn't help. But at least there are a ton of threads on the flashpaq tuner to read through to get more opinions on whether the small power gains will be worth the price.
Either way, you will want something to adjust the tire size, if for nothing else than to correct the speedo/odo/mpg's.

Hypertech Programmer - doesn't have my gear ratio
I've used the Hypertech programmer for a few years. Just upgraded to 37" tires with 5:38 gears but the programmer only goes to 5:13. Does anyone know if this programmer can be software updated to reflect the 5:38s or am I stuck looking for a new programmer?
