15-25 HP gains have been seen with an aftermarket tune only by someone that knows the program. I had my 05 GTO done while on a Dyno and what a difference it made.
Exhaust, ported Throttle body, CAI all come into play too. The Trans computer can be tuned also if vehicle is equipped with one. They can make it shift smoothly around town and then an altogether different profile while under wide open throttle.
The program used on my GTO was HP Tuners. I had it at a professional tuner.

I would go with a Hypertech programmer over a Superchip any day. I'm not sure what the specific gains are but my friend has one on his Silverado and there is definately a difference!! It is so much easier to get the rear wheels loose to do burn outs and getting onto the highway is easier because he can get up to speed faster. I just installed an Edge Power Programmer on my other friends New Denali and it HAULS ASS!! Good Luck! :Chevy:
