Default programer??????

alright im finally buying a programer.... well what i was wondering, what would be better diablo predator or sct Xcaliber 2
the Xcaliber says it has more option like MAF and injectoer sizes.and most sites dont show to much of what the diablo predator does...i saw a site that said the predator has and EGR removal button is that true... plz give me some suggestions

all the sites say pretty much the same thing timing and fuel curve but im looking for the best programer......diablo also comes with the computer link xcaliber u have to pay extra

They are both good programmers, and if you are going to ultimately get a custom (or dyno) tune they will both achieve the same end. The XCal 2 is somewhat more versatile with respect to user adjustments than the Predator, but neither provide the ability directly through the handheld to make the same adjustments as a professional shop with SCT or DiabloSport CMR tuning software. The XCal 2 will work with the SCT Pro Racer Package available to individuals, which will allow you the same tuning capabilities as the professional SCT software.

what mods do you have done as of now? depending on your mods you may want to spend your money else where for the time being. If you have a near stock 5spd, you wont benifit much from a programer
