I can say mine has great power down low and in the mid range, smooth and consistent. It had a few kinks at first but now drives great. Pulls my 37's around with ease in town and highway. I could even dump my 4.88's for 4.10's

Sprintex has a good setup with the intercooler, but yes i agree, 4 months later and nothing.

Yes i would. Its the mpg that hurts. I could probably pick up 1-2mpg with a brand new custom tune. But its 200/hr on a dyno.

Currently at 14mpg on 37's.

I got it for $2300. I got it with the hypertech tuner since I read there are a lot io issues with the diablo tuner. Good thing is that I can send it back and get a diablo if I want. Which one makes more sense?

Congrats! Either tuner is great. I have both. If you have questions on the install dont hesitate to ask.

Hey guys, new to the forum and need some help.
Just installed a Sprintex SC on my buddy's 08 and am using Hypertechs tunes. I am getting P0300 codes and have triple checked everything and spent almost a hour and a half on the phone with Gary Turner this afternoon running down thru everything and are coming up empty handed.
Engine has 5k on it as the previous one ate a rod bearing. New plugs gapped @.050" new wires as well.
Full tank of 93 octane. New battery, K&N cold air kit, headers and AFE cat back exhaust system.
It seems that the misfiring gets worse as engine temps get up to operating temps.
Have done carb cleaner checks at all places where if a leak was present, something should have shown. MAP sensor is at 2.09v and oring is good.
Absolutely no help from Hypertech.
Gonna get ahold of a scanner to see what fuel trim is setting at.
Gary suggested trying another MAP sensor to see if that makes a difference.
Anybody have this issue?
