Hypertech programmer

Hey everyone! New to this fancy website but thought I should give it a try. I have the 2012 2ls model and looking to use a hypertech max enerygy programmer. Is there one out specifically for the 2012? Or could I get away with using my buddy's programmer if he sets his back to stock before getting a trifecta tune? Any advice on the hypertech would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Just to be made clear I want to try the 2010-2011 v6 programmer by hypertech. Just to see if the device will actually let me program the new 2012 with it.

IF you are looking for big HP gains or torque, you will not find it with the Hypertech (maybe up to like 6 ft/lbs/hp). But that said, it's great if you have an Auto or a car that you plan on changing gears or tire height, as it helps to stiffen shift points in the automatic and adjusts your speedo for those mods. I love mine! Good luck and maybe you can help them beta test it? Ask them...

Any update on this product?

Better off getting something else then waiting for Hypertech. The 2012 with the new ECM will have more tuning options as time goes on. But I do recomend Trifecta if you want something now.
