YIKES!!! That thing is like $400. I mean its nice and all but it costs a ton more than reading plugs or making det cans. $400 also buys a ton of dyno time.I mean if you street tune your fuel, 4 hours on the dyno should be enough time to tune your timing. I mean sure its a lot cheaper than replacing a motor and it would be nice to have that little bit of extra protection daily but at that price I think going with dyno tuning would be a better idea.
