Default What Tuner to buy?

Need help.

I'm ready to buy a tuner but not sure which one to buy. I only have a K&N CAI and Magnaflow exaust for perf mods. I went the only local shop here and they only sell the superchip, would it be of any good? I know many will say that I shouldhad bought other type of CAI but well this is what i have right now.

In advance thank you all for the help.

I like my diablosport but the tuner shop options are limited. Some tuners only support SCTs now.

b@m@ chips, doug is the name, was highly regarded. But lately people have gotten horrible service. I'm speaking privately with them and if it continues then I will reveal it in detail on the board in order to save other members. For right now I'll just give this warning.....

So you probably want an SCT tuner, from Brenspeed.com or Evoperformance.com <---heard great things aboutevo lately

Doug is a one man show so it is hard for him to keep up with the many orders he gets daily.....he works pretty much all day and night, he has email me many times 2 am or later. It might take some time be he will get to you and it will be worth it.....Brenspeed is also very good, I have tried both and run the bchips race tune most all the time.

I would go SCT all the shops tend to be writing tunes for the sct. I know B A M A, Brenspeed, and evo all write for the xcal II only B A M A writes for the preditor.

Both the SCT and Diablo tuners are very good, they are the two best tuners you can get. I have a Diablosport but all the shops around me only work with SCT. If you plan on ever getting a custom tune, as in on a dyno, call your local shop and see which one they work with.

I am very happy with my Diablo tuner though.
