Danny, Which is better? Superchip or Diablo?

I have noticed that Diablo chips and Superchips are now available through the site. Which is better in your opinion? I looked at the dyno specs for both and they both claim to give the same results for my 1995 5.0L. Is there a difference between the two chips?

Neither is better than the other. They are different in shape, almost identical in programming. There are only so many operating parameters that can be changed on a naturally aspirated gas engine. The timing, timing curve, fuel/air ratio and rev limits can only be changed so much and remain safe. Neither company will change anything enough to harm your engine. The biggest difference is that Diablo has more of the newer programs and Superchip has more of the older programs. Newer meaning 1997 and newer. For your application, Superchip would most likely have the program available now and Diablo would take a couple of weeks to write the program.
Thanks
Danny
