What does everyone think about DiabloSport tuners? Are they quality? Are many people using them?

In the S197 world, it's the SCT software that's taking over, very few people use Diablosport.

I'm not talking about a specific application or car necessarily. I was just wondering because I have the opportunity to add them to my vendors and be an authorized distributor for them. I don't really know if it is worth my time or not so I'd like to see what you guys think about them.

Well they are handy from their limited adjustability standpoint. I know with GM stuff you can go + - 10 % on fueling and timing etc...

Personally if your going more than bolt ons, you need a real tuning program. Email tuning/mail orders in a hand held arent gonna cut it if your cammed etc...

I delbt with this on a TB-SS this past spring where a guy bought a mail order tune (vector motorsports) and it was pretty weak. I tuned it in person one night at GLD with my HPT program and it went from 14.7's to 13.5's and i thought the guy was gonna give me his first born lol.

I cant wait till HPT finalizes ford tuning in the next update, then i can take care of all the local 96+ 2V and 4V's

Thanks for the wisdom guys.....I think I will still setup an account with them just to widen my product offerings. Is HPT pretty much the way to go for LSx cars then?

Since I got a tune, I only use it for checking codes or playing around with the real time data.
