flash tuner?

therapist · October 21st, 2006, 12:29 AM

so i've got a decent amount of mods in my opinion and i have heard that a tuner would help me get the most out of those mods. i was wondering if anyone could explain the difference between the xcal2 and the predator cuz i've read the sites and cant understand it. i just want one that i dont have to take to a shop to have it tuned i just plug it in and select a 93 octane tune. i think the predator is the simplest and u do just that. educate me.

Either you can just plug and play. I prefer the SCT stuff over Diablo, so I'd say go for the xcal2, you'll be happy with it and it's easy to use.

but the xcal it says u have to program all of the specifics about ur car and i am really technologically retarded. but i'll trust u cuz i've never even seen one and i hopefully can figure it out.

i never knew any of this til now and ive had my mind set on the SCT X-CAL2 for a while now....

i dont think its that hard all i need is that computer code and then i'm ordering it.

I would call the company and ask them how to get the computer code...SCT XCAL2 FTW...

the diablo is more user friendly, but the xcal2 is a better tuner imho. also the diablo changes the parameters in %'s and the xcal changes them exactly for what they are.

take off the kick pannel in the passanger side and look at the sticker thats on the computer or look in the pasanger side door jam

what about the SCT Superchips Custom Eliminator 4-Bank Mustang Performance Chip. on americanmuscle.com. if it would work i think it would be best cuz you can add more tunes and have a switch in the coin holder to change the tune on the fly.

ChrisJ · October 22nd, 2006, 03:30 AM

That is the set-up that I have...

Its a good set-up but you have to have it dynotuned by a shop that can burn SCT software...

get the xcal2 you'll love it...get them to program it to your specific mods...if you get it at a place like i got mine...they'll give you a few custom tunes and usually if you request more they'll send you more..for free! yea the computer code is on the passenger side kick panel...you gotta unsnap a few things to see it...the guys at runninwiththedevil.com talked me through it over the phone.
