chip or tuner?

[steveb24]

im wondering whether i should get the already programmed cheaper chip..or is it better to get a tuner for 150$ more and tune the car myself.. the diablo chips sound pretty nice and install easily..gears are long down the road for me anyways..right now im just tryin to push 300 hp and fine tune the car.. thanks for the help

i wen t through the same dilemma about a month ago. I decided to go with a Diablo predator... there just more practicle, in the sense that oyu change anything and everything with'em. where as with a chip your stuck with 1 or 2 different tunes... sometimes 3. but with a programmer, you can download a custom one and get your car custom tuned with it by a local dyno shop

do you want 300 flywheel hp or 300rwhp. there's a big difference. if you want 300rwhp, don't get a chip or flasher until you have more mods.

some thing like that if you have the mods or got gears installed then go for the hand held tuner either SCT or Diablo Sport

I prefer a chip. I have an SCT 4 position chip with 4 custom dyno tunes by Modular Powerhouse. My tunes are 14, 16, 18, and 20 degrees of timing. I run 14 on the street and the others with race gas at the track.
