I wanna try the 335's.
That Cobra is crazy.
Wiz,
From what I understand, James is pretty good with tuning SCT - he's well known (on the boards) with using the Predator, but then again the Predator unit is more popular. As for Hermann, YES, I am very happy with Hermann and the quality of service. I know when I get my afr straightened out I'll get a more agressive tune to go with my setup. Here's a link I had from when I was researching about him:
http://www.mustang50magazine.com/featuredvehicles/22299/
He's got the dubious distinction of being in the first 5.0 publication:rockon: What got me was that he's very concerned about power gains, but equally attentive to street drivability.
I'm sure that the guys at Mod-Depot are well versed, but remember that there are others out there!
The 'cable' is the PC cable ($50 bucks if bought separate) you'll need it when you change tunes - you'll get 3 customs (4 if you count the stock retention). I would get the module just for the cable since I don't have one and will need one (Hermann was out of stock at the time). I'll have to call him and find out how much a new custom will be... I can check how much a new tune for those who have their own module is, if you like.
What's Mod Depot charging you for the tunes? How many are you thinking of getting?

Down the Road we will be Getting the Xcalibrator. When u bye the package (375$) Does it already have a tune? And Where exactly does it plug into the car at to load the tune?
I'm still using the Predator w/ James tune but w/ an SCT meter that James has written a tune for.
If I were in the market again I'd get the SCT. Dont get me wrong. James is great. Its' just that the SCT seems to have a bit more fine tuning to it. Some have switched from Pred to SCT and never looked back. Go w/SCT!

Cool! The Modular Depot package comes with one custom tune and they're giving the pc cable for free right now. The Xcalibrator can hold 3 custom tunes and will retain the stock - the SCT chip will hold 4 customs and you can get the switch that goes in the coin holder (can't remember if Hermann said that it can retain stock also, but I would assume it could).
There's a receiver under the dash/slight right to plug the thing in (Xcalibrator).

Straight from the horses mouth....
From James...
And, yes, I do have the SCT Advantage software, however I will not be supporting them by buying any of their products anymore, but I will keep the tuning software since I paid for it. And, DiabloSport's ChipMaster Revolution is a much better software package all in all, and the GUI of the software is lightyears ahead of SCT's. The end-user version of DiabloSport's CMR will be out most likely late next month. I will sell it and support it fully.

Rick,
Did he specify any weaknesses in the tuning capability of SCT or was it a 'customer service' issue that has led him away from them?

thats all the info he sent me about it. It seems like when diablo releases their end user program, that will help a little there
RWTD seems to develope more aggresive tunes.
What I think is happening is both companies are leapfrogging each other. This year it may be that SCT has the edge. Next year Predator may develop something better. Happens all the time. Since James mentioned that Diablosport is releasing a new software package soon, it sounds like Predator may jump ahead. If it is just GUI improvements, of which I'll never see, then there is no reason to switch. If I were buying the full software package the GUI would become very important. But, who wants to spend their every waking hour learning new software just so you can throw a tune into your car 2 or 3 times a year (2 or 3 times a week for you, Rick). I think I'll go with SCT and use Mod Depot for now. I really liked the customer service I got when I called. I just wish they were on the left coast, the time difference is killing me. Tried to order it today but was too late.
BTW, a box marked JLT came today, should I open it?
Yes Asap and put it on ASAP We are very ahppy with ours!
Hey Mean, did you notice any difference in power or just like the way it sounds and looks? Do you think it pulls harder now with just the JLT added? What is your "seat of the pants" evaluation?

oke:
Better throttle response. And yes there is more power that u can feel mostly in higher Rpm's., but keep in mind our gains are are advertised around 15-18RWHP yours is 25+
Very Happy!
