Tuner?


I really dont want to pay 350 for a tuner and 400 for a tune can the eliminator chip do the same as a tuner and tune with the custom tunes they send you?

What mods do you have? Its possible you can just get away with a tuner and email tune vs paying a few 100 for a dyno tune.

If you just have a bolt on car it's almost pointless to get it dyno tuned. There really isn't much they would be able to pull out of it. When I had my Gt I just had an SCT flip chip just so I could turn off the O2 sensors and recalibrate the speedo for the 4.10s.

You could probably get away with a good email tune if you wanted.

the eliminator has to be sent in to sct or proggramed by sct dealer. it cannot be reflashed at home. but you can change tunes easier than with a hanheld tuner. thats the big advantage of the elimator.

You posted your mods while I was posting. I say you should definantly get a tune for the 100 shot. If you get a flip chip that can put 4 tunes on the chip. You should get the tuner if you are worried about datalogging. If not get the chip.

Hit me up. I can cut deals on the preloaded xcal3s and match or beat any price. My custom tunes cost a little more but can be MUCH cheaper in the long run.
