with sniper you can run 87, 91, 93, 100, 104, 106, 110, 116, or 118 octane. i've had nothing but an awesome experience with my sniper. plus they have awesome customer support

i think they all have the same things really i wouldnt go with the sct bc the come empty. you have to tune them ur self.i have the diablo and i love it bc i can control anything i want. my dad has the sct 3 and all his says is high power, mid, low. with the diablo u control anything you want.

Sniper is the most user friendly and you can do twice as much with it compared to the others.

Go Sniper bro, definitely...The SCT has to have a tune written to it so you will be at the mercy of whoever does your tune. Sniper is user friendly and lets you tune the car whether its stock or highly modified. I think Sniper will eventually put tuners out of business soon anyway...

sniper is absolutely the way. you wont be sorry. I just picked mine up last week. Easy to follow instructions, very straight forward. They also have their own forum on their website with outstanding customer support. I have owned a few sct tuners in the past. There is so much more you can do with sniper. You can get the special forces at first like i did, then upgrade to commando later when you are more comfortable with tuning anf have the resources for feedback info. The best part, there is no limit on how many vehicles you can tune. Just buy more bullits after your first two. I got mine for 371 bux with free next day air shipping on ebay from a powerseller store. RPM outlet also has them. If you visit the forums at snipertuning.com, someone has posted an article that was recently in MM&FF magazine about sniper tuning. Quite informative. good luck man, go with sniper FTW!
