yea its def worth it. a good chip is like 300 and then your done. with this u can change so much shit. And for an auto u can change all kinds of shit ie. shift points, shift firmness, etc. I just wish i didnt have to spring another 120 for them to do a custom tune for me. |

Are the Diablo tuner and the SCT tuner basically the same animal?If not,what are the differences?Can someone who is computer ignorant(me),do this without problems?
I'm suprised you need a custom tune,can't you dial in the changes with the tuner? |

i paid like 425 for the tune and 30 for the wire to port into the computer. But after pressing the pedal to the floor and lighting those tires up in that special way it was well worth it. It change so much as far as performance.
of course the 4.10 gears helped out a little.
just call the shops in your in your town and they should tell u were to go. i had to go 90 miles because i live in a small town.

Sell it and re-buy it from AmazonRacing.com. They do free custom tunes and updates when you buy the diablo from them. They email you the new tune, you DL it, and update the car. |

The problem with Diablo is the very generic tuning they provide through the mail. The road to performance tuning is littered with unsatisified people who bought diablo tuned chips through the mail.
SCT on the otherhand has the most comprehensive database for just about every mod on any mustang on earth. Period The people who came together to develope SCT custom tuning brought with them there extensive database.
In the real world of Mustang tuning SCT is at the top everyone else is just a wannabe
I cant really say it much nicer than that. I deal in reality and truth
So you want to know who to contact for SCT tuning. here is a list below. These guys are all members on this site and most other mustang sites and are also advertisers
Alberto @ www.americanmotorsport.com
Justin @ www.velocitymustangperformance.com
Pete @ www.fordchip.com

What you need is the Microtuner to PC programming cable. This is different from the cable that connects the Microtuner to the under dash port. Did the guy give you one of these? That is the only way he would be able to email you files. |
