Ordering my tuner. Need help.

RAGEman · April 1st, 2008, 10:02 PM

Do I want the dual stage rev limiter? Also, what does this do? I have never messed with the tuning on any car. Help me out.

Is there anything else I may want to include in ordering the tuner? It's an SCT XCAL3 BTW. Thanks.

if im not mistaken and someone correct me if im wrong, but a 2 step is similar to what evos have. Basically at the line you press the button you need to and sit there with the gas down and it limits you to the rpm that you set.

Thats my understanding of it, but I may be wrong

alright now im more confused. i am about to order the xcal 3 also but i thought that was just it. he sounds like there are options with it.

YES!!!

wooowooot +1 for meh

I couldnt remember if it was or not. My buddy with an Evo explained it a really long time ago and I never really looked into it

HMUSN · April 1st, 2008, 10:19 PM

it's your choice honestly

it's kind of a track thing or "hard core" street racer thing.

BakerFX4 · April 1st, 2008, 10:22 PM

no its a standard. 5 speed

HMUSN · April 1st, 2008, 10:23 PM

this is for auto's only.

If I get it, do i have to use it? I go to the track often, but I don't really know what this is or how to use it, so......I guess what I'm saying is..It won't hurt to have it will it?

HMUSN · April 1st, 2008, 10:25 PM

I think it would be a good thing if you hit the track often.

no it doesn't have to be used for normal street driving

Well, my car is a Manual as well, so I guess this applies to me.

HMUSN · April 1st, 2008, 10:27 PM

yea.. pretty much.

unless your thinking of running a 2 stage nitrous set up.

then you would talk to acmillr .. as he is the expert on that
