I'm looking at a diablo sport tuner most likely. Been reading a good bit on them and just can't figure out exactly what I'm going to do.
Truck specs: 12 Ram 1500 Crew cab short bed. Lifted 6". 35 x 12.5 tires. JBA long tube silver ceramic headers. Y pipe. (Soon to be changed, its ridiculously loud), single 3" to dual 2.5" flowmaster super 10 muffler. Nothing special on top.
Questions???
- My mechanic that installed my headers this last week has a used Diablo T1000 that he will sell me for $450. Seems like a good price.
: However is it the same thing as the Trinity? I think it is but just not 100% on that. He had it on a Challenger, so that's throwing me off I guess.
: Are there any issues that could turn up with used units?
: Other than the tuner, what comes in the box with it? I wouldn't want to buy it and then have to buy something else that would have came with a new unit.
: any other thoughts on buying this tuner?
- I have an amazing dyno tuning shop only a few miles from my house. They have tuned a couple of my buddies vehicles. (I know of them timing Rams with fantastic results.) With that in mind...
: Would you all recommend buying the Hemi Fever tune?
: Or, would a dyno shop do the "tuning" themselves? ( I guess I'm not sure if custom purchased tunes are needed if tuned by professionals)
: Does having headers and custom exhaust change things with buying pre programmed tunes?
- Any other thoughts and ideas that this newbie should know or understand would be great!
I do plan on going to the shop tomorrow to talk with them but I want opinions from you all on here.
Thank you in advance!!
