Does anyone know if these products are being sold yet?
I need to find some info on the Sniper scout tuning system.
From what I have heard.
1. there is nothing available yet.
2. they are originally from DiabloSport & started their own product.
3. for a tuning product I would go with SCT.

If it's not even out yet how do you know if SCT is a better product?
From what I have read it's a pretty comprhensive tuner. The hand held version and the laptop version look pretty sweet.

Because I have contacts at SCT & get their insight & input.
It is the knowledge & skills of the tuner/programmer and the only ones with the most knowledge are SCT.
SCT draws from the knowledge of two legendary tuners, Chris Johnson & Jerry Wroblewski.
Most other companies have developed their tuning from reverse engineering the Ford EEC.

So your just going off what someone has feed you then.
I think I'll make my own judgements.
No I am going off the input of some of the best & most experienced tuners out there.
You are free to research & make your own choice, and I am not telling you what to buy, just providing some input.
I know of atleast 2 people that had their motors ruined by a Diablo custom Dyno tune.
Like I said do some good research & make your own informed purchase.

I know Diablo has its problems that's why I am not even considering them.
But Sniper is not Diablo....

I was told Sniper was basically a rename/upgrade of a different company - not diablo though...

Not to be the devils advocate (sorry Dan :D) but....
But talking a good game & having the intimate knowledge of the hardware are two different things.
Please no one get their panties in a bunch over my comments.... :D

Wantnotch, if you do go with sniper, you will have to let us know what you think and dyno #'s if possible.
Then try a SCT tune, and get it dyn'o and post the #'s....and see if MMA will sponsor it as a product test or something:D
I have never had good luck with diablo on a lightning I use to have and a supercharge explorer I had, so anything even remotely related to it, I am very gunshy of. but you never know.
I was very impressed with the SCT tune I had done on my cobra, the tune alone gave me at least 40rwhp. I can also understand wanting to try something new too.
