We all use the Thundercats tuner

Bamachips is not a handheld programmer. Doug of Bamachips uses the SCT Xcalibrator 2 handheld.

That depends on the question, doesn't it.

Make this thread a sticky. :lol:

Well the guy has 65 posts and sometimes the search function isn't going to get you the answer that you're looking for. I'm not trying to start a pi**ing contest but not every reply to a question needs to be funny.

I meant best of any kind of mustang programmer or chip.

emperorjordan 5/17/06 07:07 PM

while the thundercat is good, the best is the SCT Xcalibrator 2. That is what bamachips uses.

I purchased the Diablosport, because my local Mustang store carried it. A friend of mine gave me a Steeda CAI. First, you can no longer download the tune for the CAI from their website. My dealer called Diablosport and said to call them and they would email me the tune. When I finally got a hold of them, they were not very helpful. They don't seem to like to help people who did not buy the tuner with the CAI. Here is what they emailed me:

" The new Mustang presents a new series of tuning challenges and although we make a special version of the tuner for Steeda and their cold air kits we can't control the market and the sale of cold air kits without programmers. We have been helping those clients as best we can. Under the circumstances we may have to charge for this service in the future."

Last year they had the tune for the Steeda and C/L CAI to download from their website, now you have to contact them directly. After they emailed me the tune it was the wrong one, and I kept getting a Check Engine light (too rich). They gave me the tune for the New Steeda CAI, even though I told them I had the Old one. I just decided to contact Steeda, and Gus emailed me the tune in about 15 minutes. The car is running great!

I like the tuner and the interface, but I would rather have purchased another tuner. After $400 and 1 week it was finally installed and working.

What would you rather have gotten? Do you have any pics of Steeda cai installed??

I should have purchased the SCT 2. Here is a picture of the CAI installed.
