    because handheld tuners dont give the you optimal performance or tune-ability. You could do the mail order thing with a custom tuner if you wanted, or drive and have it done. I do hear that diablo is the best hand held.

    Like winning an import shootout. Even if you win, you're still queer.

    I believe NP was selling the diablo sport because it can have custom tunes loaded on to it. I think they stopped carrying it a while ago. The cool part was no waiting and no down time as tunes could be emailed and transferred quickly. A custom tune is always the way to go.
    Hand helds are like hand jobs. It may get similar results, but it's just not as good and can end up leaving mild damage behind.

    Good analysis and is it smart to do my own gears install wise I have the indicators and stuff to do the install
