Extra HP, and Tire Size adaptation

Hey there guys, I have seen that superlift has an electronic thing that you plug in and it corrects for bigger tires. And there are also things like superchips, that plugs in and gives you more horesepower. Now my question is there any company or product that does both? both gives you more HP, and gives your speedomoter adjustments for larger tires?

Maybe, but I doubt it. Most of the programmers need to know if you've changed tire size, but speedo recal is a different thing and probably not part of the programmer, since you'd have to interup the wires to the speedo and insert the compensator. Go to their websites and read their stuff.

There are devices to reprogram the ECU for more performance and tire size changes. Unfortunately, it does not work for Toyota's because their ECU's cannot be reprogramed.

I have read that the piggy-back chips do not add the performance that is advertised.

Precision and Yukon sell products that reset the speedo to match bigger tires and add HP to compensate.
