Hand Held Tuners

[Invective]

Curious to personal preferences here in the board.

Diablo Sport Intune and the SCT X4 appear to be the current dominant tuners available for retail. Sent an inquiry to Superchips earlier inquiring about availability for the '04 Marauder. My Mustang came with a Superchips hand held the original owner purchased shortly after taking delivery of the car in 2005 - nothing on their website for F-L-M products currently.

Starting some lite 'tinkering' at the moment with the basics.

Absolute best money and time you can spend/save is advice above. He can adjust the stiffness of shifts (8 is great!), so the results are amazing.

Message me if you’re interested.

SCT is pretty archaic when it comes to tuning the EEC-Vs. The most advanced and most supported hardware and software for the 03/04 Marauders specifically is the Moates Quarterhorse with TunerPro RT.

You can do realtime tuning meaning you write tunes and make changes WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. If your ballsy enough you can even make tune changes while at WOT if you have someone with you to not crash the car lol.

And the datalogging is 1000x faster and easier with ALOT more info than SCT can ever dream of.

And with the QH you have full binary access to the tune which means you can change output pin configurations and what not if you know how to write patches.

Also, with sct it takes about a min and 45 sec to write a tune. With the QH it takes about 8 seconds to write a full tune. Only 1/8th of a second to write a maf transfer change or spark adjustment etc whilw the engines running.

The custom tuning software is free TunerPro RT and the RZASA xdf file for the 03/04 Marauder.

How much do you charge for this setup?

Sounds like a great setup, how tough is it to be data logging ?

Lol, you guys have no clue who Decipha is. It's ok, if you guys are for canned tunes or dyno tunes, SCT is fine. If you want to tune your own, Moates Quarterhorse is the way to go. I've been using the SCT PRP for years custom tuning and I'm switching over in a couple weeks here.

All of that is well beyond my current understanding/skill level. Read where people tinkered with their tuning and the car wouldn't start and had to be towed in extreme cases.

Spoke with MartyO by phone a short while ago to purchase one of his custom tunes. He was busy and stated he would phone me back at some point.

Lol, I clearly stated if you want to tune your own. If you don't know how to custom tune a car... If you don't know how to do the brakes on your car... Let the pros do it

[fastblackmerc]

I'll let the PRO / MartyO tune mine......

I am well aware of who he is.

Very smart/talented guy.

Just not everyone wants to tune their own stuff. That’s were my Shop comes in handy for folks.

You sir, will always be recommended by myself for tuners and custom tunes if someone does not want to tune their own. There is a lot involved and it’s not for the faint of heart.
