How did you like the X4? I think the majority of all my tuning will be from an email (for start up) and then a dyno session. Not sure how datalogging works on the X3.

For the price is the X4 that much better? Guessing the X3 is outdated?

He did it himself. The only way I would do cams is if I got a good deal on them and I already already in there (so, doing a head gasket job)

Ya, browning is right. I'll post the spec sheet I looked up last night.
[MENTION=45175]BrowningSCrew[/MENTION] what you suggest to mount the Svt letters lower and make them glow? I saw it on LR and haven't found any since

For actually tuning, there should be zero difference. The x4 is a monitoring device where my X3 is a flash programmer ONLY

Thought you were going to work on the boat?

Sorry, I did use the x3. It was my first time using email tunes and datalogging. It was an experience at first but then I picked it up quick.

Thanks for the help guys.

Just purchased one of the X4's off [MENTION=9339]Franchi[/MENTION]_Motorsports
I will probably get JJ to do my start up tune. How long did it take him to write yours Todd?

He had it out to me in 3 days from when I spoke to him on the phone and ordered. But I ordered my tuner through him too. So I dont know what he will charge you?
