Default shopping for a new tuner......again!!

as some of you may know my car got broken into saturday night and i had my nitrous bottle and sct livewire stolen. im looking for another tuner again.....first tuner i had was the diablosport, switched to the livewire, and now i need to get another one. the livewire was nice, but I had a few problems with it in the beginning so im thinking of going to the delta force special forces tuning kit. What do yall think i should do, get another sct product or try out the delta forces tuner??

If you are going to tune your car yourself then go with special forces commander unit as it has much more functionality. Othersie go with SCT if you have having it dyno tuned as SCT is much cheaper.

thats what i was thinking. now with the commander unit would i see the same results if i were to go with an sct device and get it dyno-tuned. if so in the long run the commander would be a lil cheaper

If you wish to do your own changes/tuning, I would suggest the Delta Force software. If not, buy another sct or what ever.

The Commando will give you complete control...change what ever you need. The SF does a good job of designing tunes as well.

How's the current tune in the car?? We can use that tune as base and change from there (using Delta Force).
