It's because they are a bunch of lazy bum jk,

The real reason seems they cant brake the code on the 98+ for some reason which I can't remember.We should start a email Blitz what do you think?BTW I am getting a 98 tomarrow no more 95.

Stillen doesn't make any ECUs. They go through Jim Wolf. Jim Wolf doesn't do them because their primary business is now import racing and they don't have time.

It would be nice if they could make one. Imagine 10-15% HP gains, it would be a huge difference.

Stillen doesn't make anything for the Max. All their stuff is bought from another company and offered through Stillen. UPRD is supposedly working on an ECU for 97-98 Max's. I know it can't be OBDII. Hypertech has the Power Programmer thingy for all GM cars and trucks, and all the newer ones use OBDII. So obviously the code can be broken.
