[QUOTE="black 10th vert, post: 13063781, member: 65729"] I would not mind switching over to SCT at some point (like if I end up dealing with someone local like Bill), but I have stuck with the Diablo up to this point basically because my car came with it, and it was married to it with a canned "performance" tune. Then as my mods progressed, and I needed more than a basic "pulley" tune, I went with Amazon since they were one of the only ones that would do tuning for the Diablo, and being 2 hrs. at least from the closest tuner (who only used SCT), it just made sense at the time to stick with what I had instead of dropping an additional $300, plus dyno time AND a long drive beside all of that. I'm not sure how I could actually "switch" to SCT at this point because I'm not sure that I have the original tune for the car anymore since Diablo only stores 1 tune at a time, and I wasn't the one who flashed it the first time, so it may be lost. Not even sure any of that matters, but it was my understanding that all of the tuners usually start with the factory tune, then build the parameters from that. If I don't need to flash it back to stock, and he can somehow work with my modified Diablo tune, then switching would be a lot easier, and cheaper obviously. See what I wrote above. It was not intentional, but other than a slight pprv hesitation, I have no issues with the Amazon tune. I am sure that I am leaving a lot of power on the table though, since I am only running a preliminary base tune for my mods and haven't datalogged it yet to optimize the timing and A/F ratio. According to my wideband it is slightly rich, so I'm sure tweaking that would be beneficial as well, but at least it's safe for now. [/QUOTE]
