Default Used flash tuners?

Got my differential(3.73 final drive on a TruTrac LSD) ordered, and am now looking to purchase an SCT XcalII, but i was wondering if it would be at all possible, or at all advisable, to buy one used off of a forum or Ebay? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

ClIF BrOHN is an acronym used for the seven diatomic elements on the periodic table of elements.


Nobody has any input regarding used flash tuners?

You can buy used xcal 2's for $200 these days. Just make sure the seller returns the tuner back to stock.

And then you need to get your tunes.

lol That was about as OT as you can get for a post. I would assume that the OP is a chem major or something along those lines?

Yeah just make sure to get your own tunes for your car, don't try using the tunes that are already loaded onto the tuner.
