Product Features
Max Energy Power ProgrammerFord 7.3L Powerstroke (1996-1997) F-250/350/450/E-Series VanFord 7.3L Powerstroke (1999-2003) F-250/350/450/550/ExcursionMax Energy Tuning extracts every bit of energy possible out of every
molecule of fuel giving you more miles at part-throttle and more power
at wide-open throttle. In order to increase engine efficiency,
horsepower and torque, Hypertech engineers first optimize the spark and
fuel curves point by point over the entire rpm band. In addition,
Hypertechs exclusive Transmission/Converter Programs in every power
programmer to further increase fuel mileage by lowering automatic
transmission shift points and locking the torque converter at lower
speeds to average less: engine revs, intake strokes, friction and
pumping losses, and fuel wasting torque converter slippage.
With
the additional power and optimized transmission functions, drivers use
less fuel to accelerate and maintain cruising speeds without the torque
converter un-locking and transmission down-shifting to a lower gear.
The results are maximum power and fuel mileage. Max Energy, The Best
Hand held Performance Tuner on the Market!
Diesel Vehicles:
Three
(3) stages of Power Tuning are available. Even the highest power level
Stage 3, maintains safe EGTs while towing the maximum weight specified
by the vehicle manufacturer. No other tuner offers this level of power
for towing. Hypertechs low EGTs, proper transmission shifting and
superior tuning that does not require de-fueling, giving the Max Energy
Power Programmer the performance advantage.
Automatic Transmission Adjustments:
Shift Firmness:
Increase shift firmness to maximize performance or when towing, to
reduce clutch slippage and transmission oil temperatures. That means
longer transmission life. However, this feature must not be used if you
have installed an aftermarket shift kit in your transmission.
Shift
Points: The Max Energy allows you to raise or lower the shift points in
100 RPM increments for maximum performance, quicker acceleration, and
better quarter mile times. With the Max Energy Power Programmer, you
have the ability to customize the shift points for every gear.
Optimizing each shift point can definitely improve performance.
Top Speed Limiter:
Automobile
manufacturers limit a vehicles top-speed to match the speed rating of
the factory-installed tires. If you have installed tires that have a
different speed rating, the Max Energy allows you to raise or lower the
vehicles top-speed limiter to match the speed rating of the newly
installed tires. A tires speed rating for maximum safe speed under
perfect condition is marked on its sidewall. Always obey all traffic
laws when driving and only use this feature for off-highway competition
in sanctioned events.
Cooling Fan ON/OFF Temperatures:
The
Max Energy allows you to adjust the ON/OFF temperatures of your
vehicles electric cooling fans to match a lower temperature thermostat,
such as a Hypertech PowerStat. A low-temperature thermostat produces a
cooler, denser intake charge, is less likely to detonate under heavy
loads and allows the engine to make more power.
RPM Rev Limiter:
In
today's vehicles, the onboard computer control maximum engine rpm. The
stock computer is programmed to shut down the engine when it reaches
its redline. But if you have modified your vehicle to increase its
high-speed performance, more rpm means more power. When you shift gears
with the stock rpm limit, the engine falls back to below the peak of
its horsepower curve. When you extend the engines rpm range with the
Max Energy Power Programmer, your engine has more power available after
gear changes. By adjusting the maximum rpm to keep the engine in the
sweet spot of its power curve, you can increase the average horsepower
that accelerates the vehicle.
Speedometer/Odometer Calibrator:
If
you have installed tires that are larger or smaller than original
equipment tires, of if you have installed a ring and pinion gear set
with a different rear gear ration, the Max Energy allows you to
re-program for correct speedometer and odometer readings, as well as
correct part-throttle shifting. The vehicles computer calculates your
vehicles speed based on the diameter of the stock tires. If you've
installed taller or shorter tires, or changed the rear gear ratio, the
vehicles computer does not know how fast your vehicle is going. As a
result, the automatic transmission may not shift correctly and the
speedometer/odometer readings will not be accurate (as required by
law). The Max Energy Power Programmer lets you select different tire
sizes and rear gear ratios, and then stores that information in your
vehicles computer.
Return to Stock or Change Option Settings:
Hypertechs
Max Energy download and save the stock tuning program, then uploads
your customized Power Tuning program. Before taking your vehicle into a
dealership for service, always return the vehicles computer back to the
factory programming. Once you have the vehicle back from the
dealership, reinstall the Max Energy Power Programming as before.
Hypertechs Max Energy Can only be used on one (1) vehicle at a time, so
if you sell your vehicle or want to try power tuning a friends vehicle,
simple return your vehicle to the stock tuning program and you may then
use the programmer on another vehicle that is covered in the same Max
Energy part number.
Read and Clear Diagnostics Trouble Codes:
If
you get a Check Engine light or Service Needed message, the Max Energy
will allow you to read the code and gives you the ability to clear the
code and turn the Check Engine light off. You can then make the
necessary repairs to prevent the light from coming back on.
Internet Updateable:
The
Max Energy Power Programmer comes with a USB cable and a CD containing
software to enable quick updates over the internet. If your vehicle has
a new calibration not available when your Max Energy Power Programmer
was manufactured, it is possible that you will see a Cal Not Found
message on the Max Energy screen. If this occurs, you can simply update
your Max Energy with the correct new calibration via the internet. The
CD also contains as installation video and a printable version of the
instruction manual.
