Changing from Diablo to SCT
Well i have had enough of that POS diablo, i want to get an SCT as soon as i get my paycheck. The diablosport decided that it isnt going to work anymore, as in it freezes everytime i try to install a tune. How do i wipe out the existing tune or can i just use the SCT to go right over it?

i love mine, best one out there IMO, needed it to get dyno tuned anyway, no problems what so ever, they say the SCT comunicates with the cars computer better than the preditor, no idea if thats true or not but hey, its a nice peice of equipment

sct is flawless for me, but just keep in mind if you have a warranty the dealership will most likely void it. call the manufacturer of the tuner and bitch them out. there is no reason you should be footing the bill for defective parts, i know when i got a cam that wasdefectiveVT sent me a new one, free of charge. dont accept anything less. (BTW, it wasnt VT's fault during shipping someone dropped the cam box and one of them hit the concrete, chipping it, yeah a "chipped cam" thats what i thought)

My car is an 02' my warrenty waved bye bye long ago....diablosports customer service is also non existant. I have had problems with the tuner before and it looks as though it crapped out. I called them last year and i just got put on hold for over 2 hours, they dont respond to E mails eiether. F them...................but you guys are sure that if worst comes to worst i can have ford re flash the computer to wipe out the predator tune?

yeah ford can reflash it, but they are gonna charge you alot of money. we should set something up so we flood them with phone calls and emails demanding customer service and a reason why they refuse to replace defective tuners
