sniper Special Forces
i sold my fuego tuner. now i am looking into this sniper setup. i know there is alot of helpful people on there forums. the price is right. what do u guys think of it?
|
|
Personally, I'd get an SCT X-Cal, have someone tune it, and be done with it.
|
thats what i am trying to get away from. paying someone to tune. i am after a wide band to. i have heard so much about this tuner and that tuner. and i would like to be able to one day just do it myself. they have a tech forums and i have read a little on there and they give good info. plus i like the data log feature that it has.
|
if you change your mind about the Xcal2, I have one for sale.

it will come with 2 tunes for my car. i have to tell them what all has been done to it. and also get free tunes as long as i own it.

I am all about self tuning especially if you are going to try different combinations with your car. It gets was to expensive paying somebody else everytime you make a change.
How much is the sniper tuner vs getting a SCT Pro Racer Package |

to play devil's advocate though, while your car has blower it is not as modified as my 93 was with the blower. So their should not be any drivability issues with your mail order tune. |

380 shipped? How much can you change in it? Does it have a wideband hookup?

i just got this in a pm from hollywood racing http://www.hollywoodracing.net/
The Commando package runs $650.00 shipped! and it comes with the special forces and data logging! |
nice looking kit.
I am still leaning towards the pro racer package for my 08 though |
the sniper setups do not work with 64 bit computers!:banghead:

JOE I'm no expert, however I can tell you that I have watched many a debate about this software vs SCT. The ONLY think I like about the sniper software is the fact that it isn't automaticly locked to one vehicle. I forget how many you can tune with it but I know its more than one. You can also buy more "bullets" to add the ability to tune other cars. The guy I had tune my roots blown v6 mustang told me to my face that he'd never use the sniper software when I asked him about it. And the look on his face when he said it was one of disgust.

I know this is an old thread, but I'm bringing it back up since I'm picking up this kit in a couple of weeks for the Lightning. I have heard nothing but praise about this tuning setup on LR. I only know what I've read about SCT's XCals, but the Sniper system seems to be well ahead of them, as you can do more fine tuning with them as well as datalogging. You can fine tune your AFR across the entire RPM range, as well as custom tailor it to your mods. The REALLY cool thing about it, is that after you upload the tune or "Bullet" to the vehicle, you can download it back to the box, and tweak the tune as you add more mods, VS having to pay for an e-mail or dyno tune to cover new mods.

While not wanting to backpedal in any way shape or form Eric, You do realize my comments are 3 years old based on a conversation I had with a tuner a couple years before that. Having never used sniper software I cant yea/nay say it at all currently. However I can say I've not been too impressed with sct customer service lately. |
