    Tuners using Sniper?

    Any tuners in the DFW area using Sniper? I'm leaning towards the Sniper Commando tuning software and want to see if anyone with a dyno is using it around here.

    Good luck. A lot of tuners dont like Delta Force products. I use Commando and love it. Its relatively easy to learn.

    Just go here: deltaforcetuningforums.com

    Yeah I'm planning on going the Commando route and learning it but I was worried that I won't be able to find a dyno/shop that the tuners will be able to relate to.

    There are enough resources out there that all you may need is some dyno time to check your progress if at all.

    I use commando and the data scout/recon data loggers to tune my car n I havnt had a problem yet. I love em.

    the only thing else you need is a wideband.

    Sct PRP is your best choice if you want to tune yourself but still be able to have a pro bail you out if you get over your head. Get a wideband and the prp and you can tune it doing street pulls any time you want. Even better than using a dyno.

    Any tuner worth their salt would be able to look at the laptop screen and manipulate the fields. its the same 1's and 0's in the prp. If your looking to get EXCELLENT software for a heck of a lot cheaper, Delta Force is the way to go.

    SCT Xcal2 or 3 new =379.99 used/unlocked = $150-$200

    SCT PRP = $$350


    Commando $650


    Cost is all relative, how many Delta Force cars are running 8-1000hp 7 second 1/4 miles again?

    No they dont... Commando gives you just as much access as PRP does.. if you dont believe me come check.. you have full access to all parameters.

    EDIT: Just saw your comment steve.. There are quite a few, but its a newer company.. most established shops are going to continue to use what they have a license for.. I wouldnt imagine there would be to many ppl swapping. They will all get you to the same end result though, and that is the important thing.
