Default Aeroforce interceptor vs. Flashpaq?

I know that the interceptor doesn't make as many adjustments as the flashpaq does but it does some stuff and displays a lot of engine info. Is it worth the extra $100 for the flashpaq that doesn't even display info while driving???? Or should I just buy both

I have both, but if I had to choose one, the flashpaq does more functional things. The aeroforce is nice, kinda spendy for the quality, I really only use it to monitor my tranny temps and probably should have just gotten a cheap trans temp gauge. I spent your money and voted both though...

So did I. It's easy to spend other peoples money.

Really what you should do is think of what you're going to primarily monitor with the aeroforce. If it's only going to be one or two things, just get those specific gauges... And buy a flashpaq.

So there's no performance gains at all with the aeroforce? And does the flashpaq select a tire size and correct speedometer and mpg gauge/reading? thanks

Performance gains? Not to my knowledge. The aeroforce has some diagnostic stuff I think, never used it for that..
And yes the flashpaq allows you to calibrate everything AND gives you performance gains. It also has diagnostics.
They are two different products all together.
EDIT: the user interface on the aeroforce kinda sucks hence why I think its overpriced. It's just 2 shitty plastic buttons and is a PITA to deal with. Like I said, I just monitor my trans temp, and use the other field for MPH because I cant see the damn speedometer with my hand on the wheel.

Ok, thats good to know because at first I saw it as an underpriced performance chip and now I realize that its just an overpriced gauge. Thanks for the input
