Best Tuner/module

I have a 2003 Ex with the 6.0 psd. I am looking at getting a tuner or module upgrade for it. I have been looking at the SuperChip and the Edge juice with the attitude. Can any of you guys give me your thoughts on which way to go?

Welcome to FTE !


OH BOY !!!!
Here we go again....

there's been many a thread about the best of.... many things...
and it's all opinion when you ask best.....

Best at what is the proper question....
What do YOU have a need for - what is important to your needs ?

I chose the Diablo predator because it fit MY needs perfectly and was priced right from the people here at motorhaven...
I have had issues with SC in the past and avoid them... personal preference...
Edge was a little pricey at the time I got mine... and the 3 to 4 shift was a show stopper ... but has some good features...

Like I said... it depends on your needs and expectations... good luck, grab a six pack and get settled down to read and read

Thanks for the info. Since posting, I have been doing a lot of reading on here. I believe that I have narrowed it down to the superchip or the diablo. There are a lot of good htings said here about the diablo. My only issue is with the published gains. It looks like the superchip has about a 50 percent greater gain. I am think the the numbers are flat wrong, or they are talking about slightly different things.

You are a smart person then
my opinion - and that's all it is based on the LACK of backup from SC after repeated request... (I mean if it's truly 50% more than the predator I would want one !)
the SC 150HP number is a figament of some marketing persons imagination

one of the other real positives in favor of the predator is the on line updates available at diablosport.com.... no small issue if you have to spend $30 per update and wait a week or so while your unit is shipped back to SC for updating... (and remember, you won't have the use of the unit during that time )
